Fast Relief From Arthritis Joint Pain With Healthy Eating
By Celia Westberry
When
I first started having joint pains, my doctor told me to take a pain
killer. He was not writing prescriptions for join pain because of bad
press. I did not get the relief I expected from supplements. Eating
healthy on the other hand quickly worked for me.
Eating healthy brings permanent relief,
flexibility and a chance to maintain an ideal body weight.
To get rid of inflammation, I used fresh citrus like lemons, limes,
grapefruit and oranges to get Vitamin C. I had a glass of water with the
juice of a piece of fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice every morning.
This helped me to drink more water and avoid the sugar from large
amounts of juice. This healthy eating habit dissolves inflammation
caused by sugar.
Foods like berries, cherries, plums and the ubiquitous apple have
bioflavonoid that can remove toxins from joints, ease pain and speed up
healing. I made quick 20 second healthy eating smoothies in a Vita Mix
blender. I added almond butter as good fat and almond essence as flavor
in my smoothie. Almonds have an aspirin like acid pain reliever.
For healthy eating, I choose greens such as broccoli, kale, bokchoy,
Swiss chard and spinach which were steamed, sautéed, or micro waved. I
cooked with lots of onions, and parsley to improve my condition super
fast. And it worked! You can do this too. Use the healthy eating recipes
in my book - Eat Yourself Younger Effortlessly: the easy way to
slow aging, feel great and look good.
When cooking use small amounts of water to braise or boil. Cook for
between 5 to 10 minutes. You get super benefit if you do not overcook
greens.
I cooked with grape seed and olive oil that have Alpha-linolenic Acid.
(ALA), is known to sooth joints. I use walnut and extra virgin oil to
make salad dressings. These oils have catechins, bioflavonoids known to
have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. I take Seven Seas cod
liver oil the absolute only supplement that speeds up joint healing. For
healthy eating drinks I also use black, green, or herbal teas. I
increased my water by 16 ounces per day.
Eat good protein such as sardines and
salmon. It is essential for healthy eating. Add a low carbohydrate
protein powder to your smoothies and juice drinks. This increases
enzymes production. Enzymes are needed for building of new bone and
muscle supportive tissue. Increase your activity. Jump for joy and enjoy
your pain free movement
