Arthritis, called the ‘disease of the joints’ in Greek, results from inflammation-induced structural damage. It is a common disease, with estimates that 47% of women and 40% of men develop the ailment during their lifetime. Although over a hundred different types of arthritis are encountered in clinical practice, the most common are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout. They are associated with considerable suffering and increased disability. The economic cost to society is tremendous. Lifestyle modification has been shown to play a significant role in the prevention and management of these common forms of arthritis. Healthy lifestyle factors include non-smoking, abstinence or intake in moderation of alcohol, regular exercise, avoidance of excess body weight, and a prudent diet. This manuscript discusses the role of these lifestyle behaviors in the common forms of arthritis.
