Foods That Hurt

 

SIMPLY BAD

Sugars and simple or refined carbohydrates increase C-reactive protein, the inflammatory marker in blood vessels that responds to injury. These foods increase inflammation and slow the delivery of other important nutrients to the injured site.

HERE COMES THE PAIN

Nightshade vegetables, including peppers, white potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant, contain solanine, which may exacerbate joint pain and discomfort.

OMEGA OFFSET

Palm, corn, rapeseed and sunflower oils are rich in Omega-6 fats, which counterbalance the anti-inflammatory benefits of Omega-3.

FANNING THE FLAMES

Red meat contains Neu5gc, a molecule that promotes inflammation in your muscles, joints and cardiovascular system.
