ABSTRACT

Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease characterized by chronic joint inflammation resulting from immune dysregulation, with systemic effects including functional decline, increased cardiovascular risk, and metabolic disruption. Abnormal cholesterol levels have been reported to be associated with systemic inflammatory activity, underscoring the importance of lipid management as a critical component of comprehensive RA care. Case Report: A Korean woman in her fifties, diagnosed with RA at a tertiary referral hospital and on regular follow-up with prescribed medication, was incidentally found to have abnormal cholesterol levels and sought improvement in both her RA-related symptoms and lipid profile. She was prescribed Ortho-Cellular Nutrition Therapy (OCNT) comprising anthocyanins, omega-3 fatty acids, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), chlorella, vitamins and trace minerals, collagen, red yeast rice extract, and milk thistle extract. Following the intervention, no RA-related abnormalities were detected on subsequent follow-up, and cholesterol levels returned to within the normal range. Conclusion: Although limited by its single-patient design, these findings are clinically meaningful, as regular follow-up confirmed the absence of RA-related abnormalities, demonstrated significant cholesterol improvement, and suggested the potential of OCNT to enhance quality of life in patients with RA and hyperlipidemia.
