  • How to reverse arthritis in 8 weeks | Dr. Tamiko Katsumoto
    Feb 27 2025
    Arthritis affects millions worldwide. 1 in 5 adults in the U.S suffer with it, yet many people assume it’s an inevitable part of aging. What if you could reduce joint pain and inflammation through diet and lifestyle? In this episode, Dr. Tamiko Katsumoto, Clinical Associate Professor at Stanford University, unpacks the science behind arthritis. She explains the key differences between osteoarthritis, caused by wear and tear on joints, and rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks healthy tissue. While there is no cure for arthritis, Tamiko reveals why chronic inflammation plays a central role - and how the modern diet is making things worse. Tamiko shares evidence-based strategies to reduce inflammation naturally, including the best foods to support joint health and whether supplements and lifestyle changes can make a real difference. If you or someone you know suffers from joint pain, this episode is packed with insights to help you take control of your health. 🥑 Make smarter food choices.
