Summary
The objective of this clinical trial is to determine whether -tocopherol (vitamin E) supplementation decreases inflammation and clinical activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).The main questions to be answered are:
* Is supplementation with vitamin E (-tocopherol) for one month associated with decreased clinical activity and inflammation in patients with RA?
Researchers will compare -tocopherol with a placebo (a look-alike substance containing no active ingredient) to see if -tocopherol effectively reduces inflammation and clinical activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Participants will:
* Take two capsules (one in the morning and one in the afternoon) of either -tocopherol or placebo every day for a month.
* Attend clinic visits at the start of the intervention (baseline) and at the end of the month for final check-ups and tests.
* Keep a diary to record your symptoms and how often you take -tocopherol or placebo.
