9 Foods You Should Never Eat If You Have Arthritis
| Health, Health Tips |
Arthritis affects over 50 million Americans, forcing them to
struggle with the pain and inflammation on a daily basis. However,
Fried & Processed Foods
The 2009 Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism
published a study which revealed that fried foods are rich in toxins called
advanced glycation end products, which boost the oxidation in the cells and
thus aggravate inflammation.
Therefore, make sure you avoid all kinds of fried and
processed foods.
Refined Carbohydrates
Processed carbohydrates from white flour products, like
bread, crackers, white rice or white potatoes have a high GI and thus trigger
inflammation.
Gluten/Wheat
Wheat and gluten cause inflammation in many people,
especially in those who are intolerant or suffering from a leaky gut, since it
allows toxins and waste to enter the bloodstream through your intestines, and
this leads to an immune response and inflammation.
Sugar
Processed sugar triggers the release of inflammatory
messengers, called cytokines, so you should stay away from candy, sodas,
processed fruit juices, pastries, and all sweets.
Dairy
Most dairy products contain casein, which is a protein type
that leads to inflammation, as it irritates the tissues around the joints.
Corn Oil
Corn oil is high in omega-6 fatty acids, and this makes it
inflammatory. Therefore, you should avoid all oils derived from seeds, such as
soybean, sunflower, grapeseed, and canola oil.
Alcohol
Tobacco and alcohol have been related to the development of
certain types of arthritis. Drinking alcohol oveSalt
Excessive salt intake causes water imbalances in the body,
leading to edema and boosted pressure on the blood vessels. This worsens
arthritis and results in pain and inflammation.
Nightshades
Nightshades contain alkaloids, which in arthritis patients
show pro-inflammatory properties, and thus intensify the pain and inflammation.
Therefore, you should avoid white potatoes, tomatoes, and pepper, paprika, and
eggplants
