Overview
Eat to Beat Arthritis brings together the practical, homely cooking of Marguerite Patten and the clinical nutrition expertise of Jeannette Ewin, Ph.D., in one accessible paperback. Written for anyone managing joint pain through diet, the book pairs over 60 easy, everyday recipes with a clear self-treatment plan. It is a trusted, food-first companion for arthritis sufferers, carers, and family cooks looking for a realistic, sustainable way to support joint health at home.

About the Book
This freshly jacketed mass-market paperback edition combines two complementary voices: a much-loved British cook and a Harvard-trained nutrition scientist. Marguerite Patten developed a deeply personal motivation for this project. She suffered from crippling arthritis herself, and found relief only after following Giraud Campbell's classic arthritis diet, originally set out in The New Doctor's Proven Home Cure for Arthritis. As a professional cook, however, she found those original recipes impractical and often unpalatable, so she reworked them into a whole new collection of easy-to-prepare, genuinely enjoyable dishes that still support joint health. Alongside her recipes sits a comprehensive self-treatment plan devised by Jeannette Ewin, a nutrition expert and author with a Harvard Medical School background, who has also written a well-reviewed biography of nutrition scientist Hugh Sinclair for Oxford University Press. Together, the pair offer over 60 recipes built around whole foods and simple, minimally processed ingredients, designed to reduce inflammatory triggers while maximising nutrients that support joints and overall wellbeing. The result is a book that respects the groundwork of earlier arthritis diets while making the advice tastier, more varied, and easier to fit into everyday family cooking.
