Hair Dye Can Cause Rheumatoid Arthritis
Women who use hair dyes for more than 20 years may be nearly doubling their risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis.
The researchers reported that insulin use in women and previous injury to the joints also increased the risk of rheumatoid arthritis. In men, risk was linked to being born in a household with a private well and exposure to mould and farm animals.
Investigators in Sweden also found that smoking, diabetes, and a short period of fertility in women also increased the risk of rheumatoid arthritis, in which the body's immune system attacks the joints.
On the other hand, higher education levels and hay fever were associated with lower risks of developing the disease, according to the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases (October 2001;60:934-939).
