i want to give you a good tip if you have  osteoarthritis now typically osteoarthritis  

is different than rheumatoid arthritis  rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease  

and osteoarthritis is supposed to be more of a  wear and tear type disease it’s not really even a  

disease it’s just your body’s normal compensation  for wear and tear now there’s inflammation  

involved there’s a decrease of joint space but if  osteoarthritis is not supposed to be an autoimmune  

disease then why does it many times affect  the finger joints which are not weight-bearing  

and that’s been the mystery of osteoarthritis  well there’s a couple points i want to make  

about this there’s another kind of a sub-category  of osteoarthritis it’s called nodal generalized  

osteoarthritis now the term nodal comes from  nodes which are these hardened nodules that are  

next to the joints in your fingers and there is  data on this that suggests that this condition  

has a autoimmune component to it and it’s higher  in women especially if they’re postmenopausal  

which indicates more of a metabolic syndrome where  there’s more inflammation systemically and there’s  

also some interesting studies relating to higher  amount of dysbiosis which is an alteration of your  

friendly bacteria with osteoarthritis so here’s my  tip if you have osteoarthritis you want to support  

your gut with cabbage there’s an interesting study  that demonstrates a positive outcome when you  

consume cabbage leaf wraps now cabbage especially  in the form of sauerkraut is really good for  

your stomach it’s good for ulcers it’s good for  your gi system it seems to be one of the best  

vegetables for people that have difficult time  consuming vegetables the fiber tends to feed  

the microbial which then produce things that are  anti-inflammatory and cabbage is a really good  

source of gal glutamine which supports leaky  gut and on top of that leaky gut and problems  

with your gi system are nearly always involved  in autoimmune diseases regardless of whether you  

have osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis start  consuming cabbage and see if that can help you so
