Title : Using nutrition to optimize outcomes in connective tissue diseases
Abstract:
Connective tissue diseases (CTDs) such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and myositis, among others significantly impact patients' lives. While medication is essential, nutrition emerges as a powerful tool in managing these complex conditions. This presentation will explore the critical role of nutrition in CTD care. We will discuss how dietary interventions can positively influence disease activity, reduce symptoms, and improve overall well-being in individuals with CTDs. By understanding the connection between nutrition and CTDs, healthcare providers can empower patients to make informed food choices and optimize their treatment plans.
