Anti Inflammatory Diet
Introduction
I want to thank you and congratulate you for downloading the book, Anti Inflammatory Diet Eliminate Joint Pain, Reclaim Your Energy And Banish Body Aches By Eating The Foods You Were
Designed To Eat.
This book has comprehensive information on a suitable anti-inflammatory diet that you should adopt
to fight inflammation and live a pain free life.
Joints are an integral part of our being especially because they provide us with movement support. As
such, any damage to joints, perhaps from an injury or disease, can interfere with your movement and
cause you a lot of pain, which ranges from mild to severe.
If you suffer from joint pain, perhaps the one thing that you may be wondering is; what brings so much
pain? Well, if youve been suffering from joint pain for some time, you probably have an idea of what
it is that you do that worsens the pain even if you dont understand how that is possible. If your joint
pain is chronic (more on this later in the book), it can last for weeks or even months, and if you suffer
from acute joint pain (to be discussed later), this is likely to go away after a few weeks. But what
exactly causes the joint pain that makes you to lose sleep?
Well, a number of different things cause joint pain including any injury affecting any of the ligaments,
or tendons surrounding your joints. Pain in the joints is an indication of joint inflammation and
sometimes infection. Whatever the cause of the joint pain may be, through proper dieting, i.e. eating
foods that contain anti-inflammatory properties, you can manage joint pain and reduce the pain and
inflammation while preserving a joints functionality.
This book is the ultimate anti-inflammatory diet book. It contains invaluable knowledge on how to
live a joint-pain free life by doing one simple thing: eating right. This book outlines how to use food,
and how to tweak your diet to eliminate joint pain, reclaim your energy, and banish body aches.
Thanks again for downloading this book, I hope you enjoy it!

Conclusion
hormone called cortisol. This stress hormone originates from your adrenal glands.
When cortisol is released to the body, it immediately starts to pressure the production of insulin
levels in your body, which plays a big role in promoting chronic inflammation. Your body is well
built to deal with psychological stress but the problem comes in when you have to deal with
persistence stress. It will most definitely exhaust your adrenals, your central nervous system, and your
immune system. This will then create a welcoming environment for inflammation to come in.
Over exercising
Physical exercise has always been known to help your body become healthy but in the case of
inflammation, too much of it is dangerous. When you over exercise your body, it creates free radicals
as well as starts breaking down your body tissues. The two scenarios will call upon inflammation for
its healing power. The levels of inflammation might be minimal if you get adequate resting time but
the opposite of this will promote the increase of inflammation to an inflamed level in your body.
Environmental
What we used to call a clean environment is now a thing of the past. Chemical pollution used to be a
very serious offense in the past but nowadays, almost everything is chemical oriented, and that has
increased the air pollution immensely.
Glues, air fresheners, latex, synthetic fibers, adhesives, plastics etc are just some of the huge
collection of chemicals that we expose ourselves to everyday.
With most people working in buildings that have re-circulated air, this increases their risk to being
exposed to various chemicals. As if that is not enough, our bodies also take in pesticides and heavy
metals through the foods, drinks, and even breast milk. All of the above toxins result to you having
crazy and abnormal immune system, which can ultimately cause inflammation.
So what can you do about the joint pain associated with inflammation? Well, the good news is that
you are what you eat. As such, eating foods rich in anti-inflammatory properties and avoiding foods
that trigger inflammation can make losing weight a lot easier, slow down the aging process, prevent
diseases, and reduce joint pain.
An anti-inflammatory diet places emphasis on foods high in antioxidants, omega 3 fatty acids, and
mono saturated fats; these three elements have a reputation of reducing inflammation. Keeping an antiinflammation diet low in sugar also cools the inflammatory fires by keeping blood-sugar levels in
check. To help you understand more of this, lets discuss it more in the next chapter.
you have to reduce intake of omega 6 fatty acids found in safflower, sunflower, soybean, and corn
vegetable oils. Omega 6 fatty acids usually cause pro-inflammatory eicosanoids, which you are trying
to avoid. You should opt for vegetable oils like olive oil, coconut oil, and flax seeds. You should
also try flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, avocados, and nuts to fight joint pain.
You should as well avoid processed fats given that these have been broken down and oxidized
making them to have high levels of free radicals, which have been proven to trigger inflammation.
Instead, you should consume foods like avocado, nuts, coconut, seeds and ghee if you want to
consume fat that are healthy for your body.
4. Conventional dairy products
The level of acidity in conventional dairy products lands them on this list. The hormones, toxins, and
antibiotics that the cows are normally fed with create a very high acidity level in their dairy products.
Lets take an example of milk, which is commonly consumed; people take this product and treat it by
heating and adding additives substances which make it very acidic. When these products are taken in
the body, they cause major inflammation, which can result to various complications. Thats why
intake of dairy products is likely to lead to painful irritation around the joints. Avoid dairy products
and start taking more of plant-based proteins.
5. Imbalance of omega fatty acids
In order to be healthy, it is crucial that you know how to balance your omega 6 fatty acid with omega3
fatty acid intake. Omega 3 fatty acids are known to inspire the production of anti-inflammatory
prostaglandins and omega 6 fatty acids activate COX-2 enzyme, which promotes the production of
inflammatory prostaglandins. These two fatty acids should be taken with a proper ratio of 1:1 if you
want your body to remain healthy. A common mistake that people make is to take in more omega 6
fatty acids, which float in your bloodstream blocking the anti-inflammatory actions that are inferior
because the level of omega 3 intake is low. This results to inflammation in the body.
6. Sugar
The sugar industries have been selling us on the idea that sugar is a natural product. This has been a
lie since all the sugarcane cells are always eliminated during the refinery process. It loses some of its
minerals like iron, which are the beneficial parts that your body needs. This artificial sweetener is a
huge threat to your health since it supports inflammation.
7. Grain fed meat
These are animals, which are normally kept in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs). The
meat produced from these animals is unhealthy because they do not graze in natural outdoor
conditions. They are instead raised by hormones, antibiotics and other drugs. To make the matters
worse, they are processed by colorings, artificial flavorings, and preservatives which are all
components that trigger inflammation in the body.
8. Alcohol and Tobacco
These two have been linked with joint pain. For starters, smoking is closely connected to rheumatoid
arthritis while alcohol consumption is closely connected to gout. As such, to avoid these
complications, you have to stop or at least minimize your intake of alcohol and tobacco.
Spirulina
Tea- green tea
Traditional food and fermented vegetables
Herbs and Spices: With every spoon of healing herbs and spices, you chose life-enhancing tastes,
while at the same time, helping your body keep inflammation at bay. Spices play an important antiinflammatory role. Spices you should include in your diet are:
Turmeric: This yellow spice has been used for centuries as medicine to treat
infections, wounds, liver disease, and colds. It contains the compound curcumin that
relieves inflammation in the body.
Cinnamon: Cinnamon is more than just a delicious additive to your cake. Cinnamon
contains anti-inflammatory properties that help ease swelling.
Garlic: The anti-inflammatory properties of garlic have proven to ease the
symptoms of arthritis.
Cayenne Pepper: All chilies contain a natural compound called capsaicinoids;
cayenne pepper is no exception. Capsaicinoids give the spicy fruit its antiinflammatory properties. Cayenne has long found use as a digestive aid but
recently, it has shown to ease pain associated with arthritis and headaches.
Cloves: Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, add cloves to baked food to
treat nausea, stomach upset, and mouth and throat inflammation.
Ginger: Traditionally, ginger has found uses in treating stomach upsets, headaches,
and infections. Recently, scientific studies have proven ginger has antiinflammatory properties.
Cilantro: Besides being a good source of dietary fiber, magnesium, and iron,
cilantro contains anti-inflammatory properties, and may alleviate inflammatory
conditions such as arthritis and minor swelling.
Other herbs and spices that you can use to fight inflammation include:
Basil
Oregano
White willow bark.
10.
Caffeine: Caffeine increases the stress hormones called catecholamine. This
stress response stimulates the productions of cortisol, with the result being an
increased insulin levels. High levels of insulin increase inflammation.

Conclusion
Sometimes, we tax our bodies by eating foods our bodies are not evolved enough to process. When
we do, our bodies have no option but to respond with an inflammatory response. However, by simply
avoiding inflammation causing foods, and using the anti-inflammatory foods we have outlined here,
you can reduce chronic inflammation, have healthy glowing skin, eliminate all joint pain, and avoid
many other health complications that birth from inflammation.
