For patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF), in addition to their medical treatment, paying attention to the following lifestyle recommendations may be beneficial in reducing the frequency and severity of fever attacks or preventing them:
* Sufficient and Quality Sleep: Adequate and regular sleep is critical for strengthening the immune system and overall health.
* Stress Management: Stress is a significant factor that can trigger attacks. It is recommended to practice stress coping methods (such as meditation, breathing exercises) and adopt a lifestyle as free from stress as possible.
* Regular Physical Activity: Regular weekly exercise can contribute to attack control by both reducing stress and supporting the immune system.
* Balanced and Healthy Nutrition: A balanced diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables supports overall health. Since excessively fatty foods have been observed to trigger attacks in some FMF patients, dietary habits should be monitored on an individual basis.
