This may not be for everyone but in my case it has been a life changer.
I'm a 73 year old male and I've had PMR for almost 5 years wth many tapers and flares so firstly I changed my diet to eating only whole foods.
Absolutely NO added sugar and fruit juices with high sugar content.
I dropped 50 lbs (from 230 to 179 today) and the inflammation reduced significantly.
I did this through intermittent fasting and walking a minimum of 1 hour per day.
Resistance training was too painful...until recently.
That's when I changed the fasting regimen to 36/12 which means 36 hours with no food followed by 12 hours of being able to eat however much I want. I still adhere to the no sugar diet of course during the eating period.
The results have been miraculous for me.
Within a week, yes, I said a week, I had full flexibility in my neck and shoulders. That's something I hadn't had for years and the pain in my hands, hips and knees was insignificant.
I was then able to do some mild resistance training 3 days a week using bands.
Dr Jason Fung, a nephrologist, was my inspiration throughout this journey.
Through his medical practice he was able to reduce obesity and reverse type 2 diabetes in his patients using intermittent fasting and the side effect of reducing inflammation was the kicker for me.
He is now a authority of the benefits of intermittent fasting and you can find him on YouTube.
BTW. He doesn't promote any products. His channel is purely about information and the results he has seen in his patients.
