Top 13 Inflammatory Foods You Should Avoid

The modern diet, filled with inflammatory foods, doesn’t help much either.

As they say: “The body ages much faster than the mind”. Nothing is more true when it comes to your joints. Years of daily wear and tear (and a few injuries) can make your joints ages before their time. This translates to chronic pain, mobility issues, and swelling.

The most common causes of joint pain are inflammatory conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and bursitis.

Inflammation and Disease

Although inflammation is part of your body’s natural healing system, too much of it isn’t great.

In fact, systemic inflammation is the root cause od many health conditions, including Alzheimer’s, heart attacks, Type 2 diabetes and much, much more. Cytokines and C-reactive protein (CRP) are the two main compounds responsible for all this damage.

Other inflammatory diseases include :

  • Depression
  • Lung issues
  • Bone problems
  • Heart disease
  • Cancer
  • Anger disorders

So what causes inflammation, you may ask. Well, lack of sleep, stress, dehydration, smoking, drinking alcohol and gut bacteria imbalance are all contributing factors. But the main cause -and the most easily reversible- is eating an inflammatory diet.
