What Are Anti-Inflammatory Foods & Why Are They Crucial for Health? | Dr. Rob Lustig Ultimate Guide

[@e.a.miller6503]

Every time I listen to Rob Lustig my jaw drops open because he’s so freaking interesting.

[@PudgyCurmudgeon]

FYI - Be aware about consuming farm raised fish for your Omega 3's. As Dr. Lustig said, the fish get their Omega 3's from algae (or eating other fish that eat algae). Farm raised fish are typically fed corn products and are not a good source for Omega 3 fatty acids. Sardines are typically safe as they are too small to be farmed. I eat a 4.375 oz. can every 3 days - Wild caught in the Pacific Northwest. You have to be careful with salmon as a lot of it is farm raised.

[@homomorphic]

I am vegetarian. I get my omega 3s from a combination of a vegan algae supplement, and 4 pasture raised eggs per day. I get about 1g of DHA and EPA per day that way.

[@edy3569]

100% agree. They add certain colourants to transform the natural weak grey-pink colour of salmon into bright pink. Those farmed salmons are not just pro inflammatory, they actually contain carcinogens. I eat sardines and mackerel for my DHA and EPA (mackerel, just like sardines aren't farmed as they're small), lots of omega-3, low in mercury.

[@MelissaThompson432]

Farm raised salmon and certain other fish, because they are _fed,_ tend to have higher pro-inflammatory Ω6 fatty acids, such as arachidonic acid.

Sardines(canes) are in sunflower oil ...very rich in Omega 6

You are amazing n always enlighten us with the best of guidance.

Canola oil is classified as a MUFA oil not a PUFA oil. The balance between omega-3 and omega-6 fats are important to help drive the omega-3 fats in prostaglandin production in inflammation. This is not mentioned here at all. It is important to eat fatty fish (eg. salmon), that are high in omega-3 fats, at least one or twice a week.

[@bevleighlange3312]

You are brilliant in your explanations and knowledge to us - thank you Dr. Lustig

[@luisv007]

@@bevleighlange3312 the main fatty acid in Canola oil (61%) is oliec acid, the same fat as in olive oil (70%). The rest is a combination of saturated and polyunsaturated fats. Prostaglandin and Leukotriene production can be pushed toward using n-3 PUFA fats rather than n-6 PUFA, the former being milder form, by increasing the number of-3 intake through the diet. Supplementation also evidenced by HPLC fatty acid profile of human blood 🩸

Doctor Robert thank you so much

[@iwasthere.]

Thank you for this information!

[@Jccgrg]

as usual, very informative

[@hanaashaba1263]

When you have inflammation as much as i have you wouldn't say it's good for our bodies, but in other way it's good to accept it as a friend of our body so it will make my pain easy

Can someone please tell me how to get rid of lymes disease

[@Budgargy]

In regards to fructose, sugar determines how healthy a fruit is. Fruit grown in the wild has higher sugar content (brix value) than conventionally grown fruit. Who eats nothing but table sugar, you add sugar to whole foods to mimic how it is in nature.

[@fransiereinhardt3343]

Very wise doctor. Thanks to God🙏

[@htttppppp]

The problem is that we don't get to hear doctors say this. I wonder why is that???

[@bernadinecabanas331]

Because they did not learn this from médical school 😢

[@luisv007]

Nutrition is a small portion of their education because they are focused on the different streams of medical and surgical hospital structure. There are medical specialists who do have a speciality focus on nutrition and food

[@harryevans4513]

Seed oils might have some mechanistic evidence for inflammation and could be bad in certain cases, but a lot of evidence favours them as generally health promoting, having low saturated fat and high mufa and pufa. "Nutrition made simple" has a whole 40 min video going over the collected evidence on canola oil. And other videos about seed oil studies too.

[@harryevans4513]

I'm confused whether Dr Lustig made a general statement here or a context dependent one. Because everything else he says is generally applicable and backed by collective evidence

[@homomorphic]

Since I removed fructose from my diet (i have less then 4g per day, most of which comes from 8oz of homebrew kombucha per day) my hsCRP is now 0.9. I suspect that I actually have considerably less than 4g per day, but I can confidently state it is less than that. The reason it is hard to be exact is because kombucha brews vary in how much sugar remains. Sometimes the brew is very tart (thats what I aim for) amd sometimes it is a bit less tart than I wanted.

[@htttppppp]

Yes there is something you can do to get rid of the particles that cause pollution. You can buy air purifier and you can use zeolite (the purified form). Zeolite isnalso good for gut. Two birds with one stone. Plus, D3 is in sea fish. Also, there are river algae. Do they produce D3? That is the question. Probably they do, but my guess is not in the same amounts as the sea algae.

[@bjoshua1980]

My problem everybody is talking about inflammation as basic concept. But in fact nobody can say what is inflammation in reallity.

[@richwilson5969]

I just need to know what will happen if I need 5 mg of prednisone daily? Nothing takes the pain away but that.

[@jolo6539]

What is your illness that is causing pain?

[@richwilson5969]

@@jolo6539 hi! I have deg disk , facet arthritis and osteoarthritis. It all started early in my life. 20s I had some back issues when I did yard work but didn’t think much about it. When I turned 33 everything went crazy. Lot of mri and exrays. Saw my reum dr today , he’s giving me anti anxiety and anti depression meds, I got home and thinking why??? He’s an arthritis Dr. I called and asked if he would replace those for tramadol. He said I have to go thru primary to get a referral to pain management. I never went to one of those. I never took any drugs in my life. Zero drugs. And zero narcotics. I’m asking for the least addictive med to help control pain that’s over the top and constant. Other than that he’s giving me a nsaid,- and flexerall. He’s not giving me prednisone anymore. He said blood work came back negative for inflammation. At least the kind that pertains to spondylitis. A very serious spine condition. He knows what I have which I said at beginning. Not sure what to do right now.

WHAT ABOUT GLUTEN

[@luisv007]

Gluten is no a worries if you don’t have coeliac disease. IBS is not a problem with gluten, but undigested and unabsorbed carbs

[@polibm6510]

We don't need fiber at all...

[@luisv007]

Fibre it’s important because it help develop and preferred microbiome in our digestive tract. Fibre, antioxidant and other phytonutrients helps minimise the risk of colon-rectal cancer. The time I spent with my uncle, never saw him eat fruits and vegetables. He died of recital cancer, as epidemiological studies have predicted.
