Can Turmeric Help Me With My Pain?

Turmeric is a very popular, and flavorful herb, used in many cultures throughout the world. Not only is it delicious, but extremely beneficial as well. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric is a powerful, and natural,  anti-inflammatory.

Recent research (currently over 10,000 peer-reviewed articles) has shown that inflammation plays a role in many more disease processes then we had ever thought. Dr. Ryan Tichauer, midtown chiropractor, recommends bringing down your body's global inflammation level by staying away from pro-inflammatory foods:

1. Processed Foods
2. White Flour
3. Sugar
4. Mayonnaise
5. Fried Foods
6. Cereals (Except Oatmeal)
7. Ect.

Along with eliminating pro-inflammatory foods, it's important to add anti-inflammatory foods to your diet:

1. Turmeric
2. Fish Oil (Omega-3) - Salmon
3. Ginger
4. Flaxseeds
5. Chiaseeds
6. Coconut Oil
7. Walnuts
8. Pineapple
9. Blueberries
10. Broccoli
11. Beets
12. Green Leafy Vegetables
13. Bok Choy
14. Celery
15. Bone Broth

When your body is on "high alert" (inflamed) all the time, it cannot effectively manage problems or pain that come along.
