We all experience inflammation in one way or another. Some of us may experience it as joint pain or chronic pain. For others, it may come up in blood work, but maybe they never knew that it was something they experience on a daily basis.
Whether your doctor told you to decrease inflammation, or you know yourself it’s something to work on, here’s what you can do to help:
Step 1: What to include
Green Tea
Berries
Nuts + Seeds
Omega 3 rich foods such as salmon, sardines, flaxseed and chia seeds
Include regular exercise + drink lots of water to flush your system
Step 2: What not to include:
Avoid added and processed sugars
Avoid high fructose corn syrup
Step 3: How to make the changes- tips + tricks
Start with adding one new food at a time. Aim for fatty fish such as salmon or sardines 2-3x per week or add a tablespoon of flaxseed to your morning breakfast or into your first cup of water for the day.
