Top ten great foods: 1. Fish: tuna and salmon 2. Yogurt, beware sugar 3. Brightly coloured veggies 4. Extra virgin olive oil 5. Green tea 6. Beans and lentils for fibre 7. Dark grean leafy veggies for magnesium 8. Coffee, preferably black but hydrate before and aftee a cup 9. Nuts and seeds for vit. B6, almonds, walnuts and pistachios but only handful 10. Citrus fruits; oranges, lemons, beware grapefruits for statins

[@helenamcginty4920]

There is no need to hydrate when drinking coffee. Although caffeine is a mild diuretic the amount of water most use in their coffee is more than adequate to.counter this.

Unless your on a low histamine diet.

How am I just seeing this now? All great information, thanks, Alyssa! I just happen to have a chef's recipe for homemade salad dressing that's yummy and good for you too! I make one recipe, keep it in a jar with lid in the fridge, and use 2-3 teaspoons per salad! 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 2 tbsp any vinegar you like 1 tbsp Dijon mustard 1 tbsp water Put lid on and shake! It's delicious and stays emulsified! My husband and I eat a big salad every day, so this recipe lasts a few days, then I make a fresh batch. No need to buy bottled dressings with long ingredient lists.

I’m a believer. I’ve done well at not eating inflammatory foods anymore. I’ve seen how much of a difference that’s made. Now I’m working at adding in anti inflammatory foods and am hopeful that will also make a difference. I’ve lost 120 lbs and kept most of it off for 7-8 years so I know I can make changes in my diet when I need to. I really appreciate the specificity of the information shared in this video.

I dont think our neolithic ancestors had yogurt or beans with their meat and fish. But probably had leaves and herbs to season their stews. But the women who did the grinding of grass seeds for flour had arthritis in their ankles. But very strong arms. 😅

So a spinach salad with evoo, peppers, salmon, black beans, walnuts and some lime juice would be a great meal a few times a week. I had a curry chickpea soup the other day, delicious! Sauerkraut for probiotics. I haven't found any flavoured yogurt low in sugar so maybe a plain yogurt based veggie dip recipe would be good. Thank you for the inspiration!

Dark leafy greens are high in oxalate which is a trigger for inflammation. A British GP did research on this and helped her fibromyalgia by limiting high oxalate foods.

that is amazing Emma about your sailing. Unfortunately most information out there is negative and I'm glad you share the positive outlook! Yes you should be able to! Let me know how your journey goes!

Thankyou Alyssa. Your are god sent. Another thing we can incorporate as an anti inflammatory agent is grounding or earthing our bodies by walking or sitting barefoot on ground for atleast 30 mts a day.

Grounding is something I am not familiar with. I must look into this.

Is organic sunflower classed as anti inflammatory and does organic de caff coffee have the same benefits ? Thx 🙏🏽 😊

[@aviveli]

Thank you Alyssa I was a really good girl for several months eating many of the foods that you suggested. I have sort of gotten off track and I feel much more pain when moving. I need to get back to the good and healthy foods and away from the junk. I also need to put a focus on hydrating which I am not so good at. If I stay away from the night shades, is my body missing something important as far as joint pain is concerned?

Hey is porridge ok to eat and non added sugar peanut butter? I use both of these on gym days.

I have a real dislike for coffee but I was wondering if decaffeinated green tea would still work for inflammation. Otherwise I eat everything on the list just need to eat more servings.Thank you for the list,it is very useful 🙂 9:04

I know yogurt is good for us but I was always told that dairy causes inflammation. Please clarify. Love this channel. Why you don’t have more subscribers I don’t understand. Your info is invaluable! Thank you 🙏

Eliminate sugar from your diet also helps with inflammation, processed foods etc.

I love these suggestions. I’ve been learning a lot about anti inflammatory foods but found it especially useful to also learn how much of it to try to incorporate into my diet. I lost 120 lbs. by counting calories, no special program, so I know I can make changes in my diet. It will be easy enough to use these suggestions and make some more changes that I’m hopeful will help me manage my osteoarthritis.

I have terrible food allergies: to fish, nuts, and some dairy. I know fish would help but I just can't eat it. Bone broth is helping me. Coffee is a bit of an irritant for me. I've noticed if I have too much...like 3 cups or more...I get very bad pain and inflammation.

[@madams.5976]

Do you have a video of foods to avoid? I was just diagnosed with arthritis in my right hand, knees, and hips. The right hand now is just killing me. My ring finger is so tight and painful when I bend it, if I didn’t know better, I would think I had injured it in some way. And I never had issues with that finger. I’m trying to best maneuver my way through this because it’s new to me. It honestly seems like it came on me suddenly. My hip is the other issue. My knees, I can seem to manage…I do follow several PT’s online for exercises. It helps. Thanks again.

As a vegan who can't have caffeine, there are only about 4 or 5 left. 😉 I do use the ones I'm able to eat/drink, except citrus, just because I don't like the ones we get here (as they don't grow here...and once you've had some fresh off a tree, you can never go back to out of area store bought). I do find that sugar causes a lot of inflammation, and I do have a sweet tooth ...so that is my biggest struggle.

Why isn't there a statement about dangers of mercury in Tuna? Fish oil, I take Nordic Naturals (3rd party tested) brand and the addition of Vitamin D3 helps with making it better assimilated. Also, some people are sensitive to peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes...nightshades. Your material is much appreciated, it's just that many people these days rely (unfortunately) online info. So, I feel it's important to give the cautions as well. Especially when targeting a population with serious health problems

Some people are more affected by certain foods than others. If you notice tomatoes bother you specifically, you may want to reduce. If you don't notice much of a change in pain, you may not be sensitive to them.
