Inflammation is the body’s natural response to illness, infection, and injury. However, chronic inflammation is linked with chronic diseases such as Alzheimer’s, asthma, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and type 2 diabetes. One of the best ways to reduce inflammation is through our diet. When we asked our dietitians what their favorite anti-inflammation recipes are, they had delicious meals ready to share! These recipes are vibrant in color and flavor. The 10 anti-inflammatory recipes our dietitians love are a great addition to include in your meal planning.
What are anti-inflammation foods?
Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, sardines, and tuna are great proteins to consume for reducing inflammation. Including cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, brussels sprouts, and kale are also beneficial to include in your anti-inflammation meals and snacks. Fruits like berries, cherries, and tomatoes are excellent inflammation fighters. Adding nuts and seeds like walnuts, chia seeds, and flaxseeds is beneficial. And we can’t forget about healthy fats and oils such as olive or avocado oil & avocados.
