In this #ArthritisAtHome, we are sharing the #CRArthritis interview with Dr. Liam O’Neil, Assistant Professor at the Max Rady College of Medicine at the University of Manitoba. His research focuses on understanding the biological events that occur prior to the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Dr. O’Neil discusses his study that looks at curcumin, omega-3, and vitamin D as a combination for preventing rheumatoid arthritis and explains why these three supplements were chosen. Dr. O’Neil’s study also showed improvements in joint pain, fatigue, and morning stiffness, even among health participants and he explains what this means for people who have early signs of RA or risk factors such as anti-citrullinated protein antibody positivity.
