How Inflammation Affects The Body
Foods That Can Help Reduce Inflammation
Harvard Medical School advises that eating refined carbohydrates, fried foods, red meat, and drinking soda can all contribute to inflammation. To help reduce it, stick to a diet that includes the following:
- Leafy greens, such as spinach, collards, and kale;
- Fresh fruits, such as strawberries, blueberries, apples, and oranges;
- Nuts, including almonds and walnuts;
- Fatty fish, such as salmon and mackerel.
Stick to whole grains when it comes to breads and cereals, and substitute olive oil for cooking oil or margarine. Coffee, consumed in reasonable properties, also has anti-inflammatory properties.
