food to avoid with arthritis :

This systemic problem is easily remedied with dietary measures. Reducing animal products (meat, poultry, dairy), refined white flour products, soft drinks, sugars and all processed goods is vital. Replace them with fresh vegetables, fruit, fish, whole grains, beans and legumes, fresh nuts and seeds.

Allergies to citrus fruits, chocolate, coffee, wheat and nightshade vegetables are common. Try the following dietary experiments, one at a time. Do each for two months and observe your symptoms:

• Eliminate milk and all milk products.
• Eliminate all sugar except fresh fruit.
• Eliminate citrus fruit.
• Eliminate all nightshade vegetables (tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, peppers, paprika, chilli, tobacco).
• Eliminate refined salt and replace it with highly mineralised organic Celtic salt.

Arthritis Diet Tip:

Use anti-inflammatory and circulation boosting spices such as tumeric, cinnamon and ginger liberally in cooking. Try adding tumeric to stir fries and curries, make ginger and carrot soup and indulge in ginger and cinnamon spiced pears. Delicious and healing!
