Supplements I Use to Support Rheumatoid Arthritis
15
items Nobody told me that hormones were part of my rheumatoid arthritis picture. After 10 years of flares and failed treatments, addressing the hormonal and metabolic side of inflammation is what finally moved the needle. This list covers the supplements I...<3
Progesterone dissolved in vitamin E oil. This is the formulation Ray Peat developed and it's one of the most bioavailable topical progesterone options available. The vitamin E carrier isn't incidental; it enhances absorption and adds its own anti-inf...
Kenogen (Dr. Peat's) Progest E Complex Replenishing Oil, 34 ml
Progesterone has anti-inflammatory properties that are consistently overlooked in conversations about autoimmune conditions. Low progesterone means higher estrogen dominance, which drives inflammatory signaling. This cream is bioidentical, same molec...
The Natural Progesterone Cream 75 mg
This is the one I'm most careful about recommending because progesterone is something you want to understand before you use. That said, this is the product I personally use. Bioidentical means the molecular structure matches what your body produces, ...
Protect: Bioidentical Progesterone
Gelatin is the cooked form of collagen, it gels when cold, dissolves when hot. I use this in broths and cooking as an easy way to get glycine in through food rather than supplements. Glycine is calming to the nervous system and supports bile producti...
NOW Foods, Real Food, Beef Gelatin Powder, 1 lb (454 g)
Magnesium hydroxide is a gentler form for people whose digestion is sensitive. It supports motility, nervous system regulation, and sleep without the laxative effect that higher doses of other forms can cause. This is my daily magnesium. Code MONIKA ...
Balance: Magnesium Hydroxide
Most sports drinks are essentially sugar water with synthetic dye. This one replaces electrolytes without the junk; no artificial color, no seed oils, nothing that spikes insulin. I use this for hydration support especially on high cortisol days. Cod...
Sport Drink Non-toxic Electrolytes
Micellar casein is a slow-digesting protein that supports overnight muscle repair without spiking insulin before bed. I use this one specifically because the ingredient list is exactly what it should be, nothing added, no fillers, no sweeteners. One ...
Clean Casein™
A concentrated mineral formula. Most people running on stress and cortisol are chronically depleted in the minerals that actually buffer that response. This is what I reach for when I need to support that baseline.
Master Mineral Drink | Mitigate Stress
Collagen is the structural protein your body uses to repair tissue, support gut lining integrity, and stabilize joints. Grass fed and finished matters here, sourcing affects the amino acid profile. I add this to coffee or tea daily. Code MONIKA for 2...
Kollagen: Grass Fed/Finished Bovine Collagen
Thyroid function and autoimmune disease are closely linked; low thyroid output slows every system involved in recovery and inflammation resolution. Desiccated thyroid contains both T3 and T4, which matters because many people don't convert T4 efficie...
Grass Fed Desiccated Beef Thyroid Supplement - Nutriest®
Cascara sagrada is a natural stimulant laxative that works with gut motility rather than against it. I use this when things are slow, it's gentle, it works, and again, the ingredient list is clean. Two ingredients. That's it. Use GRACIOUSPRO10 for 20...
Well Aged Cascara™
Organ meats are the most nutrient-dense animal foods, but most people won't eat them whole. This covers liver, heart, kidney, the full spectrum of fat-soluble vitamins, heme iron, and CoQ10 in capsule form. I use this as a foundational daily suppleme...
Grass Fed Freeze Dried Beef Organs Capsules
Shilajit is a mineral-dense resin that comes from Himalayan rock, it's one of the most fulvic acid-rich substances available, which matters because fulvic acid enhances mineral absorption at the cellular level. It also supports mitochondrial energy p...
PANACEA (Pure Shilajit Tablets)
Oysters are one of the most zinc-dense foods available, and zinc is directly involved in progesterone synthesis, thyroid conversion, and immune regulation. I use these as a food-based alternative to isolated zinc supplements, the cofactors are alread...
Freeze Dried Oyster Capsules (100% Wild Caught)
Most vitamin E supplements are synthetic alpha-tocopherol only, which actually depletes the other tocopherols your body needs. Mixed tocopherols is the full spectrum form that works the way vitamin E does in food. Fat-soluble antioxidant that protect...
Antidote (Vit.E): Pure mixed tocopherols, in an organic olive oil base (no fillers/PUFA) with a bovine gelatin softgel capsule.
