The use of nutraceuticals and supplements are increasing day by day due to the drawbacks associated with synthetic drugs. Clinicians are aware of these therapies and prescribing the nutraceuticals in addition to the current choice of therapy. Many scientific studies, meta-analysis, randomised clinical trials have proved the effects of nutraceuticals in arthritis. Arthritis is the inflammatory disorder characterized by pain, swelling and stiffness of one or more joints. Two common types of arthritis are rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. The review covers all the possible nutraceuticals used in these two types of arthritis with their evidence and mechanism of action. Search engines like PubMed, Scopus, Google scholar, Researchgate and Science Direct are used to collect articles published from Jun 1983 to January 2020.
