First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a Mediterranean diet can lower disease activity and improve quality of life in 110 people with axial spondyloarthritis (a type of arthritis affecting the spine) who are already on biologic therapy. Participants will either follow a structured Mediterranean diet or receive general healthy eating advice for 3 months. Researchers will measure changes in inflammation, pain, fatigue, and sleep.
