FUEL YOUR HEALTH

Chronic inflammation can contribute to various diseases, and factors like stress, inactivity, and inflammatory foods can increase the risk. Therefore, it is essential to add anti-inflammatory foods to your diet.

Here are 5 anti-inflammatory foods for optimal health:

Bell peppers contain quercetin, which may help reduce inflammation linked to chronic conditions like diabetes. Their vitamin C and antioxidants are also known for strong anti-inflammatory properties.

Drinking green tea lowers the risk of heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, obesity, and more, largely due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Broccoli is high in sulforaphane, an antioxidant that helps reduce inflammation by lowering levels of cytokines and NF-κB, molecules that promote inflammation in the body.

Berries like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are rich in essential vitamins and minerals, including an antioxidant called anthocyanins, which offer anti-inflammatory benefits.

Salmon, sardines, herring, mackerel, and anchovies are packed with EPA and DHA, which lowers inflammation. Additionally, resolvins and protectins compounds in fatty fish have anti-inflammatory effects.
