Especially when you have arthritis, you have to be mindful of what you are eating. Certain food can worsen your state and you have to do your best to avoid it.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the foods those with arthritis should avoid:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Processed_food\"><\/span>Processed food<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While sometimes delicious, processed food is usually nutritionally bankrupt. However, in most people it won\u2019t do much damage, at least not right away. But when you have arthritis, you should limit how often you eat it.<\/p>\n<p>These foods often contain trans fats, which trigger systemic inflammation. If you see any food which says it has hydrogenated oils, even partially so, stay away from it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sugar\"><\/span>Sugar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Another food that\u2019s bad for most but even more so for people with arthritis. Sugar contains compounds that activate proteins called cytokines which cause inflammation.<\/p>\n<p>You should also avoid any form of sugar like fructose, maltose and so on.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Red_meat\"><\/span>Red meat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Red meat that has a lot of saturated fats, which are high in cholesterol, can cause inflammation. It also contains elements which have inflammatory effects, especially if you roast, fry, broil or grill the meat.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fried_foods\"><\/span>Fried foods<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Any fried food is full of elements with inflammatory effects. These elements can be found in anything from fried chicken to donuts.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Refined_grains\"><\/span>Refined grains<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>White bread, pasta or crackers are your enemies. They cause a spike in the blood sugar levels which raises your body temperature and cause inflammation.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cheese\"><\/span>Cheese<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Any dairy high in fats is something you should avoid because they trigger inflammation as well.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Oils\"><\/span>Oils<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Certain oils like peanut or sunflower oil are bad for the same reason all the other items on this list are &#8211; increasing inflammation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The bottom line?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These types of foods may worsen your pain; if you notice inflammation after eating something, take note and avoid it.<\/p>\n<p>However, don\u2019t despair! There are many alternatives that you can consume and still be happy and healthy.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4338\" src=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better.jpg\" alt=\"What foods make arthritis better\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better.jpg 900w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-561x374.jpg 561w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-364x243.jpg 364w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-758x505.jpg 758w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-608x405.jpg 608w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/What-foods-make-it-better-313x209.jpg 313w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>9 Food Choices to Help Ease Arthritis Pain<\/h3>\n<p>While it may seem like food is out to hurt you, there's plenty you can still enjoy.

These oils have various positive benefits for your health, specifically being anti-inflammatory.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cherries\"><\/span>Cherries<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Cherries reduce the frequency of attacks and have anti-inflammatory effects as well.

You can enjoy up to 5 cups a day as a way to reduce joint pain and inflammation. Not a fan of tea? Try adding a scoop of matcha to your favorite smoothie.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Citrus_fruit\"><\/span>Citrus fruit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Fruit rich in vitamin C can help aid arthritis and reduce the pain that comes with it. It will also keep your joints healthy.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Grains\"><\/span>Grains<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You shouldn\u2019t eat white flour but whole grain breads and pastas contain healthy benefits.

Is it good at all?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There have been numerous studies done on patients with arthritis and the relation of their disease with drinking coffee. Researchers have examined coffee\u2019s effect on inflammation and they have concluded that it\u2019s not surprising that coffee is helping inflammation. After all, coffee has antioxidant and anti inflammatory compounds.<\/p>\n<p>But another study would disagree since they found that drinking coffee actually increased inflammation with some people. Then, another study found that coffee did have inflammatory effects but only for those who drink coffee heavily.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What does this mean for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There aren\u2019t studies that conclusively decided that coffee is bad for people with arthritis.<\/p>\n<p>There are no contraindications when it comes to consuming coffee and medications for arthritis. However, you might want to stay away from java blends and stick to less caffeinated drinks if you take prednisone for your arthritis because it can cause insomnia.<\/p>\n<p>People on methotrexate might want to even add coffee to their morning routine because caffeine can help in dealing with unpleasant symptoms of this drug.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you should know when to stop drinking coffee. While there is no reason to stop drinking coffee completely, you might want to keep it down to 4 cups at most. You can also take teas as a replacement &#8211; for instance, green or black tea.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4337\" src=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs.jpg\" alt=\"Natural herbs spices for arthritis\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs.jpg 900w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-561x374.jpg 561w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-364x243.jpg 364w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-758x505.jpg 758w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-608x405.jpg 608w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Natural-herbs-313x209.jpg 313w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Best Natural Anti-Inflammatory Remedies<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to eating healthy food, you can try reducing your arthritis pain by taking advantage of <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/?s=healing+herbs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">healing herbs<\/a>.
