Olive oil may act similarly to 
NSAIDs
People who consume a typical Mediterranean diet rich in 
olive oil appear to have fewer health disorders 
associated with inflammation, such as degenerative 
joint disease or diabetes, which has piqued researchers’ 
interest.
Researchers have discovered that oleocanthal, a 
compound found in extra-virgin olive oil, appears to 
suppress the same pain pathway as nonsteroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) like ibuprofen, making it 
an excellent oil to use in cooking or salad dressings as 
part of a daily pain management plan.
Vitamin C Is Essential for Tissue 
Regeneration
Vitamin C is a dietary component required for the 
synthesis of collagen, which aids in the formation 
and repair of blood vessels, tendons, ligaments, 
and bone, and is thus beneficial to persons 
suffering from osteoarthritis.
If you’re taking medications that are affected by 
citrus, Sandon suggests getting vitamin C from 
other foods like tomatoes, peppers, melons, 
strawberries, kiwi, or potatoes. A half-cup of 
cooked broccoli, for example, contains more than 
half of the daily vitamin C requirement.
Antioxidants and anti-
inflammatory properties are 
abundant in berries.
Sandon suggests including one or more servings of 
fresh or frozen berries in your daily diets, such as 
blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, 
or huckleberries. Pro Anthocyanins and ellagic acid, 
two potent antioxidant chemicals found in these 
little fruits, combat inflammation and cell damage. 
According to Sandon, the amount and combination 
of chemicals varies by berry type, therefore aim for 
variety.
Anti-Arthritis Vitamin A with 
Beta-Carotene Carrots
Sandon recommends including carrots, squash, and 
sweet potatoes on your anti-arthritis grocery list. 
Vitamin A and beta-carotene, both of which are 
known to combat inflammation, are abundant in 
these and other orange-hued vegetables. Cooking 
appears to make these chemicals more available. 
To receive the most benefit from these vegetables, 
consume them on a regular basis in suggested 
serving sizes rather than in huge quantities. 12 
cups, or around 1 large carrot or 7 to 10 small 
carrots, is a single serving of carrots.
Ice and Heat
Ice packs applied to uncomfortable areas of your 
back on a regular basis may help lessen pain and 
inflammation caused by an injury. Attempt this for 
up to 20 minutes several times a day. To protect 
your skin, wrap the ice pack in a small towel. 
Switch to heat after a few days. To help relax your 
muscles and enhance blood flow to the affected 
area, use a heating pad or warm pack. Warm baths 
can also be beneficial for relaxation. Never sleep 
on a heating pad to avoid burns and tissue 
damage.
Whole Grains Could Aid Weight Loss 
and Pain Relief
Whole grains have gotten a lot of press, and with good cause, according 
to Sandon. Whole grains contain all three sections of the original grain: 
the bran (outer hull), endosperm, and germ.
Whole grains have more fibre and other essential elements like selenium, 
potassium, and magnesium than refined grains. Furthermore, a diet high 
in whole grains has been related to improved weight management, which 
can help lower RA discomfort and symptoms.
Ginger: Spice Up Your Dishes to 
Turn Down the Flame
Ginger, like onions, contains chemicals that act similarly to 
anti-inflammatory medications like aspirin and ibuprofen. This 
flavorful root is also versatile. Fresh peeled ginger can be used 
in stir-fries, pickled ginger can be eaten with salmon sushi, or 
pureed ginger can be added to an acorn squash soup.
Ginger supplements can also help reduce inflammation, but 
Sandon advises consulting your doctor first. Too much ginger 
can cause blood thinning, which can be problematic if you’re 
on certain medications like Coumadin (warfarin). It can also 
cause blood sugar levels to drop, putting you at risk for 
hypoglycemia. Furthermore, ginger may drop blood pressure, 
which may have an impact on people who are using blood 
pressure medication.
Turmeric: An Anti-Inflammatory 
Spice
Curcumin, a naturally occurring polyphenol, is 
found in the Indian spice turmeric. The jury is still 
out on how much is required for the good effect, so 
why not use it to spice up your cooking?
A kind of RA known as “amavata” is treated with 
Ayurveda by some Ayurvedic practitioners. 
Supplements, dietary changes, and exercise may 
all be part of an ayurvedic arthritis therapy 
regimen. To discover more about homoeopathic
