Jackie's Health Tip of the Week 4/16/17
Inflammation is not only the mechanism of pain, including achy muscles and swollen joints, but is also the root cause of many other health concerns, including autoimmune diseases, infections, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and obesity.
To reduce inflammation avoid or reduce foods including sugar, high-glycemic foods, trans fat, processed and refined foods, and all foods you are individually allergic or sensitive: Common culprits included gluten, dairy, soy, corn, eggs, and nightshades.
A good night's sleep, stress management, and regular exercise can decrease inflammation!
Supplements to consider: Tart cherry juice, Boswellia, and Turmeric. Please reach out if you would like more information or would like to be tested for possible food allergies or intolerances.
