"Ron Hobbs, a naturopathic doctor and professor at bastyr university, agrees. "Nutrition is key." In OA, cartilage breaks down faster than your body can rebuild it, so you need to eat plenty of joint-strengthening foods to fight back. "If you're not eating the nutrients, they're not in your blood," Hobbs warns, and your cartilage won't get what it needs to regrow. "You've got to have these nutrients on board." - The Editors of FC&A, Unleash the Inner Healing Power of Foods (Get the book.) "That's nothing new to Ron Hobbs, a naturopathic doctor and professor at bastyr university in Washington state. Hobbs and other experts attribute the fish oil's healing powers to its vast store of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). If he could do only one thing for people besides urge them to exercise, says Hobbs, he would "make sure they got more omega-3 in their diet." Be warned that fish oil supplements may contain toxins from the fish's food and water, although some experts say the risk is slim. Supplements can also interfere with certain medications." - The Editors of FC&A, Unleash the Inner Healing Power of Foods (Get the book.)

"In the years that I spent on campus at bastyr university, while earning my Bachelor's and Master's degrees, I did my classroom and clinical work alongside naturopathic, Oriental medicine, and Ayurvedic students.
