Go to the related link below (Gluten-Free Diet for Rheumatoid Arthritis) for some information on this. I must admit that on occasions when I eat less bread then I usually do I do seem to have less trouble with my RA, However there is still no definitive answer to the question whether it will help you or not the article I am pointing out here seems to look at this in a reasonable manner.

It is not unusual for Anemia or "low blood" to accompany rheumatoid arthritis. Anemia indicates a low number of red blood cells and that these cells are low in hemoglobin, the substance that carries oxygen through the body. A low white blood cell count (leukopenia) can occur as a result of Felty's syndrome which is a complication of rheumatoid arthritis that is also characterized by enlargement of the spleen.
