Foods That Cause Joint Inflammation

Foods That Cause Joint Inflammation

Many people suffer from joint pain and inflammation, and these conditions can sometimes be linked to dietary habits. Russian doctor Alexander Myasnikov confirmed that "the foods we consume daily have different effects on our overall health, and they also impact the health of joints in the body. We can categorize food products into two types: one that causes inflammation and one that reduces it." He pointed out that "fresh fruits and vegetables, seafood, and dairy products play a role in reducing inflammation in the body and improving joint health in general. Conversely, there are foods that trigger inflammation, including sweets, fats, fried and smoked foods, processed sausages, and red meats." The doctor noted that "foods rich in starches and complex sugars cause obesity and affect the health of the nervous system, which negatively impacts joint health." He also emphasized that chewing food well improves the absorption of beneficial nutrients, as the enzymes found in saliva enhance digestion and reduce inflammation in the stomach and intestines.
