(Health-NewsWire.Net, August 26, 2015 ) Orlando, Florida -- Millions of people from around the world are diagnosed with arthritis, and most of them are living a low quality of life due to pain and immobility. Pain relief pharmaceutical drugs are often resorted to by sufferers to achieve relief. However, due to the side effects associated with the use of these drugs, sufferers resort to natural pain relief options.
The Arthritis Foundation reveals the food items that can help fight arthritis. Consumption of healthy food and beverages has always been thought to be one of the best ways to increase one's protection against a variety of ailments. Anti-inflammatory food items are believed to be especially helpful to individuals who suffer from arthritis.
"There are many anti-inflammatory food items that are believed to help ease arthritis symptoms, and one is omega-3 fatty acids," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in certain types of fish such as mackerel, herring, salmon and tuna. These healthy fats are believed to be effective for fighting inflammation. According to experts, people should consume a minimum of 3 to 4 ounces of fish two times a week. This will help them obtain some anti-inflammatory benefits, especially those who suffer from rheumatoid arthritis. EPA and DHA are the most popular types of omega-3 fatty acids that are widely consumed nowadays.
According to studies, consumption of cherries can potentially reduce the likelihood or frequency of gout attacks. Cherries contain anthocyanins that are believed to have anti-inflammatory properties. There are other fruits that contain anthocyanins such as raspberries, blueberries and blackberries.
Broccoli is also believed to be one of the food items that can help fight arthritis. The vegetable has compounds called sulforaphane that are associated with the prevention of osteoarthritis. It is also believed to be helpful in slowing down the progression of the condition. Consumption of anti-inflammatory food and beverage items is generally considered to be more beneficial since they are not associated with side effects unlike arthritis pain relief drugs.
In addition to consuming anti-inflammatory food, individuals who want to fight arthritis in a natural way can also take advantage of fish oil supplements. Fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA. The anti-inflammatory effects of omega-3s can significantly help improve one's protection against arthritis.
Since there are many fish oil supplements available nowadays, consumers should ensure that they choose the right product. They should choose fish oil supplement capsules with enteric coating, and that have the highest potency of omega-3s to get the maximum benefit (amazon.com/Omega-Fish-Oil-Supplement-Softgels/dp/B00O8NS20K/).
