Pistachios are rich in certain nutrients, so it certainly would not hurt anything to eat them. They are good for cardiovascular health, but do not appear to have any specific effect on RA.

Though in the past, diet has not been seen as having any effect on RA. but according to articles in Arthritis Today, as well as other sites, diet can have an effect on RA, if nothing else than to decrease (or increase) the symptoms. Some supplements can also be helpful. To go to the Arthritis Today site and read the articles, click on the Related Link below.

Can you have rheumatoid arthritis with a rheumatoid factor 6.9?

Yes you can have RA with an Rf of 20. When a doctor sees the symptoms of RA they automatically check for RF because it is a good indicator that that is the problem when taking the symptoms into account , However you don't need any RF at all to be suffering from RA. When this happens it is described as "seronegative rheumatoid arthritis".An RF of more than 23 units and a titer over than 1:80 can indicate rheumatoid arthritis but may also occur in other conditions.A negative test result for rheumatoid factor does notnecesarily exclude the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.
