While I'm completely for more people adopting a plant based diet, claiming it will help actual medical issues without any scientific basis to do so is just wrong. The article you yourself linked consistently argues that there isn't enough evidence to suggest a change in diet for people with arthritis. At best it "might play a role", that's hardly the same as "can and does help".
