Fort Wayne DIET AND INFLAMMATION

Diet may play a role in obesity and chronic pain, not just in weight-bearing joints but other parts of the body as well. Poor diet many times adds to obesity, impacts the immune system unfavorably, and lengthens recovery from inflammatory injury. An anti-inflammatory diet instead of a pharmacological intervention after injury may well help with these issues when swapped for the Standard American Diet. (1) Fort Wayne chiropractic patients with chronic pain frequently discover some relief with healthier eating choices.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FOODS

A review of 172 papers suggests that consequences of specific foods are comparable to drug management therapy for chronic pain. Natural compounds like the phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oil are examples. Carbohydrates with low glycemic indices consumed 3 times a day along with fruits and vegetables, yogurt, red wine are good daily. Fish and legumes, white meat, eggs and cheese and red meats can be interspersed weekly. It is not bad to have sweets on occasion! (2) Such a treat makes it easier to manage a diet change! Eating like this facilitates inflammation/oxidative stress that brings about pain relief.  

DIET CHANGE FOR NEUROLOGICAL REPAIR

A well-known diet called the ketogenic diet may have a good effect on lessening inflammation and fostering neuroprotection, protection of the nerves and even neurological recovery of spinal cord injury if initiated early after the injury.
