“What is the best diet for inflammation? ”
Because of RA, I suffer from bouts of inflammation and it is, at times, unbearable. I want to find ways to control my diet with inflammation because I believe it does play a huge role in it. Is there anything that I should be eating to avoid inflammation?

The best diet for RA is definitely an anti-inflammatory diet which limits intake of processed foods, grains like white rice and breads, and also sugars. Eating lots of fruits and veggies in addition to healthy fibers found in beans and whole grains like millet, buckwheat and brown/wild rice is optimal. We see a lot of RA patients in our clinic and invite you to schedule a 15-min free phone consultation to learn more about how we can support you through nutrition, functional medicine and lifestyle modifications.

Hello there, I believe in the power of plants to lower inflammation. What does this mean? Adding more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds to your daily meals. Aim to have 2 cups of vegetables per meal (choose a variety of colors). Add ginger and turmeric daily, in your foods, as tea, or juice.
Reduce the intake of pro-inflammatory foods- highly processed foods, fried foods, or refined carbohydrates, stay hydrated. At every bout, investigate the foods you consumed so you can see if there are any trends or foods triggering the inflammation.

Restoration diet. Also get the book “ the yeast connection”. There a good ideas in that book.
I'd recommend you read Dr. Lori Shemeck's book "How to Fight FATlammation. It will provide you with all your answers.
An anti-inflammatory diet has a variety of vegetables, some fruit and quality fats. Fat from wild-caught, fatty fish, such as salmon, has a higher level of omega-3 fat, which is more anti-inflammatory. Avoid refined sugar, refined grains, grain-fed meats and processed vegetable oils to avoid inflammation.
