Carrolltown DIET AND INFLAMMATION

Diet may influence obesity and chronic pain, not just in weight-bearing joints but other parts of the body, too. Poor diet many times adds to obesity, impacts the immune system adversely, and lengthens recovery from inflammatory injury. A diet that is anti-inflammatory in nature in place of a pharmacological intervention after injury may well assist these issues when swapped for the Standard American Diet. (1) Carrolltown chiropractic patients with chronic pain often discover some relief with wiser eating choices.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FOODS

A review of 172 papers proposes that consequences of specific foods are akin to drug management therapy for chronic pain. Natural compounds like the phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oil are such. Carbohydrates with low glycemic indices consumed 3 times a day alongside fruits and vegetables, yogurt, red wine are good daily. Fish and legumes, white meat, eggs and cheese and red meats can be mixed in weekly. It is not bad to have sweets on occasion! (2) Such a treat causes it to be easier to achieve a diet change! Eating this way helps manage inflammation/oxidative stress that results in pain relief.  

DIET CHANGE FOR NEUROLOGICAL REPAIR

A well-known diet called the ketogenic diet may be beneficial for reducing inflammation and promoting neuroprotection, protection of the nerves and even neurological recovery of spinal cord injury if started in a timely manner after the injury. (3) Protecting and regenerating damaged, inflamed nerves is important in the care of chronic pain and Carrolltown back pain at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is eager to share that  anti-inflammatory diets help patients heal from disc herniations and other spine related injuries.
