@llmartin Could you share your dietary guidelines? In 2025, I had a dramatic decrease in pain and fatigue from psoriatic arthritis after learning about cytokines and anthocyanins. My diet focus now is deeply colored fruit and veggies that have anthocyanins that calm the cytokines and reduces inflammation. Some of the things I have include black grapes, blueberries, red cabbage, blackberries, red onion, black lentils, and black soybeans.
Also need to avoid saturated fat.

I find the Mediterranean diet helpful for PsA.
I avoid gluten and meat. Daily have coffee, nuts, berries
olives and dark chocolate. Pomegranate juice and beets are
also antioxidants. I take turmeric, CoQ10 and vitamin D.

@searcher1 your diet sounds wonderful! I will have to pay more attention to deep colors and try the black lentils. I usually have some berries once a day. Frozen fruits and vegetables make it easy to consume more of them. One simple concept has helped me a lot. I eat a big salad for lunch everyday--pre-washed greens topped with chopped vegetables (usually colorful!), raw nuts and seeds. For dinner I'll usually have some kind of vegetables or legumes, including tofu, whole grains, and greens, either raw or cooked. Sauces such as tzatziki, cashew cream, or salsa help. In short, I eat a lot of plants. I usually don't tell people what I eat, though, because I'm sure it sounds pretty far out, LOL So I always have to add that it has evolved from years of learning to appreciate these wonderful healing foods, seeing them listed on credible websites as anti-inflammatory, and finding ways of incorporating them into my daily life. It was so good to hear that you have found the same relief from PsA I have. Kind regards.
