Tips For Inflammation Management in the Summer!

6/11/2023

15 Comments

 
Contributing Author: Holly Schwarz, PT, DPT
Summer weather can actually be very helpful in relieving inflammation that contributes to aches and pains!  Believe it or not, your summer diet can really help manage inflammation as well!

Summer Fruits and Vegetables to Relieve Inflammation

Some foods to consider eating this summer to reduce inflammation or pain include:

 Strawberries
-Contain anthocyanins which keep inflammation at bay
-Rich in Vitamin C – linked with building collagen and connective tissue

 Red Bell Peppers
– flavonoid quercetin in the peppers can inhibit inflammatory agents that may

lead to joint damage in RA
Picture
Apricots
-Rich in plant-based chemical beta-cryptoxanthin, studies of shown help prevent
osteoarthritis as well as inflammatory forms of arthritis.
-High in magnesium which strengthen bones and ease pain.

 Carrots
-Beta-carotene lowers uric acid which could help with gout symptoms.
-Rich in Vitamin C

 Watermelon
-Contains Vitamin A which helps with bone health.
-Beta-cryptoxanthin which may reduce inflammation.
-Rich in Potassium and Magnesium which help with elevating bone density.

 Summer Squash
- Antioxidants – Carotenoids, flavonoids, and Vitamin C which help fight free-radical
damage and reduce inflammation, slowing cartilage deterioration and reducing joint
pain.

Cherries
-Anthocyanins in cherries help relieve osteoarthritic pain and control gout flares in some
people with tart cherries.
-Sweet cherries also contain anthocyanins which could help reduce C-reactive proteins, a
marker for inflammation in RA and other inflammatory diseases.

 Tomatoes
-Packed with antioxidants, including Vitamin C, Lycopene and Quercetin.
-Rich in Vitamin C and A which help lower cardiovascular risk.

Additional Ways To Reduce Inflammation

Picture
1.  ​Eat foods that reduce inflammation as stated above.
2.  Lessen sugar intake – sugar can directly cause inflammation.
3.  Engage in stress-relieving exercise – mediation, yoga, mindfulness, and light exercise is
     important with lowering body’s inflammation. You can even go for light walks to help remove
     inflammation within the body.
4.  Add adaptogens to your diet – like ashwagandha or ginseng which are known to stabilize you
     which help decrease the impact stress has on your body.
5.  Sleep more – CDC reports that we do not sleep enough. Lack of sleep reduces the bodies ability
     to fight infection.
6.  Drink adequate amounts of water and stay hydrated.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]

I’m overjoyed to share my incredible journey with the amazing spell caster, Dr Peter, who helped me reunite with my boyfriend. My relationship was facing numerous challenges, and things got so bad that we ended up breaking up. I was heartbroken. I loved him more than anything. I cried endlessly until a friend of mine, who has a perfect relationship, shared her story and introduced me to the wonderful Dr Peter. He reassured me that everything would be fine and that no relationship is flawless, but he would help me fix mine. He guided me with specific steps, which I followed, and just 24 hours later, my boyfriend returned to me. I’m beyond thrilled! Thank you so much, Dr Peter! I’m leaving his contact information here so you can also benefit from his incredible work: You can reach him on WhatsApp. +2348162247974

MY HERPES STORY AND HOW I WAS CURED
For years, I struggled with the emotional and physical burden of the herpes virus, believing I would have to live with it forever. I tried countless treatments, medications, and therapies, but nothing seemed to bring lasting relief. It felt like a battle with no end in sight until I discovered a natural remedy that changed everything (herbs). Skeptical at first, I decided to give it a try, and to my surprise, I started noticing improvements in my overall well-being within two days of taking the medication. With consistency as prescribed by the herbal doctor, I felt healthier, more energized, and free from the symptoms that had once controlled my life. After completing the treatment, (14days) I visited my doctor for confirmation, and I was overjoyed with the results. I tested negative. I was cured from my HSV1&2
This experience has given me back my confidence, peace of mind, and a renewed sense of hope. If you or someone you know is struggling with herpes or other health concerns like HPV, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, PCOS, or hepatitis, know that there are alternative options available and you will be cured. For those seeking a natural approach to wellness, I encourage you to explore this path with an open mind. You never know how life-changing it might be. Just if you want to reach out, you can contact:
