Did you know that what you eat and do not eat has an impact on your health (well of course it does, duh). There is an interesting list of Anti-inflammatory foods that will help to make you feel and be well. It is worth the effort to research the good, the bad, and yes the ugly fruits, vegetables and fish that can lead to a healthier you. Of course, you have to take into consideration allergies and or digestive orders you may have as well as prescription medications or supplements. So you have to balance and plan your meals to suit. A list of 63 Anti-Inflammatary Foods
Why did I choose this subject, you ask! Well I read somewhere that excessive amounts of Tea (caffeine) can cause muscle pain. [I LOVE MY TEA!] I queried my physiotherapist on this and she said that Tea is a stimulant and yes could be on the "inflammatory food" list. I haven't totally researched it but I want to find a nice balance between the things I cannot eat due to digestive problems and those that interfere with prescription medications and those foods that ultimately work against you. See the worst Inflammatory Foods.
I think that is why I am not totally successful in dietary plans. I can't eat salad two days in a row; dark green vegetables interfere with one of my medications; fruits with seeds and nuts are a digestive time bomb. Can't stand artificial sweeteners but have to watch my sugar...it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.
I will find the balance, may take a while but I'll find it!
