Chronic joint pain greatly limits the mobility of many elderly people, especially those in their 50s and 60s. Stiffness, discomfort, and swelling are prominent signs of age-related joint diseases as osteoarthritis, spondylitis, and others. These symptoms might vary from day to day, making it difficult to manage a condition that can decrease bone density, connective tissues, and inflammation. According to a Healthline article, there is a direct correlation between the foods you eat and your joint health and lifespan.
1, Walnuts
Studies have connected the high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and other compounds in walnuts to a reduction in the pain and inflammation produced by joint diseases such osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
2. Beans
Protein, fiber, phytonutrients, and essential minerals are just some of the antioxidants and anti-inflammatory chemicals found in beans. The presence of the powerful flavonoid anthocyanin has been linked to a reduction in inflammation and pain in the joints.
3. Olive Oil
Because of its anti-inflammatory effects, olive oil is often recommended to those suffering from arthritis. According to research, it can help reduce inflammation, reduce joint swelling, and halt the degeneration of cartilage in those who suffer from arthritis.
4. Onion
Onions contain a compound called quercetin, which has been demonstrated in tests to have anti-inflammatory properties by limiting the actions of inflammatory chemicals in the body, much like ibuprofen does. Onions contain sulfur compounds, which have been demonstrated to slow cartilage degeneration.
5. Berries
Anti-inflammatory elements like antioxidants, minerals, vitamins, and powerful flavonoids can be found in abundance in berries like blueberries. When taken orally, the rutin and quercetin found in berries have been shown to help reduce inflammation associated with arthritis, according to Healthline.
6 Types of fatty fish
Fatty fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel include vitamin D, anti-inflammatory properties, and omega-3 fatty acids, all of which have been shown in studies to reduce arthritis symptoms like morning stiffness, joint pain intensity, osteoarthritis, inflammation, and symptom severity.
