Webinar to feature board-certified rheumatologist Dr. Adam Kreitenberg, exploring how everyday habits, emotional wellness, and complementary care can support arthritis management

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- 1MD Nutrition^®, a physician-formulated supplement brand using clinically studied ingredients at clinically effective dosages, and Proud Partner of the Arthritis Foundation^®, is sponsoring the Foundation's "Whole Body Healing for Arthritis" webinar today at 7 p.m. ET. Led by board-certified rheumatologist and 1MD Nutrition physician formulator Adam Kreitenberg, MD, the educational session will cover how people living with arthritis can pair medical care with healthy lifestyle habits, emotional wellness strategies, and appropriate complementary therapies.

Nearly 60 million adults and children in the U.S. have been diagnosed with arthritis, and its effects go beyond joint pain. Fatigue, disrupted sleep, and emotional strain can make everyday activities harder, so care needs to address overall well-being, not just physical symptoms.

"If you remember one thing from this webinar, I hope it's that managing arthritis is a long game," said Dr. Kreitenberg. "The goal isn't just to get through the next flare or make it through the next day with less pain. It's to preserve your ability to move, stay active, and enjoy your life for years to come. That means thinking beyond the joints and paying attention to the things we can influence every day, like how we move, eat, sleep, and manage stress. Ultimately, it's about doing everything we can today to give ourselves the best chance of staying healthy, active, and independent for years to come."

His mother's experience ultimately led Dr. Kreitenberg to rheumatology and to an interest in how nutrition and naturally sourced ingredients could support joint health alongside medical care. After completing his internal medicine and rheumatology training at the University of Southern California and Los Angeles County Medical Center, he partnered with 1MD Nutrition as a physician formulator, helping develop its joint and bone health supplements.

During the webinar, Dr. Kreitenberg will guide participants through three areas:

1. Mental and emotional wellness: How the brain and stress influence the experience of pain, and how cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and other strategies can help with coping and emotional well-being.
2. Self-management: The role of Mediterranean-style nutrition, gut health, regular movement, restorative sleep, and pacing daily activities in overall health.
3. Complementary care: How approaches such as heat and cold therapy, acupuncture, and massage may work alongside medical treatment, and how to evaluate supplements with guidance from a healthcare provider.

The session will encourage participants to make sustainable changes and work closely with their healthcare team. Participants will also learn about resources available through the Foundation's webinars, Connect Groups, and Helpline.

The sponsorship is part of 1MD Nutrition's ongoing partnership with the Arthritis Foundation and its support of educational resources for people living with arthritis.
