Anti-Inflammatory Foods

 Maintaining a diet high in anti-inflammatory foods can ease the adverse reactions to medications, but it also adds a healthy and tasty mix of foods into your meals. These foods also supply us with essential vitamins and minerals that help boost our immune system.
 
Turmeric:This powerful Asian spice contains a natural anti-inflammatory compound, curcumin, which is often found in curry blends. It is said to have the same effect as over-the counter pain relievers (but without their side effects).
Green Tea:Like produce, this tea contains anti-inflammatory flavonoids that may even help reduce the risks of certain cancers.
Sweet Potato:A great source of complex carbs, fiber, beta-carotene, manganese and vitamin B6 and C, these potatoes actually help heal inflammation in the body.
Blueberries:Blueberries not only reduce inflammation, but they can protect the brain from aging and prevent diseases, such as cancer and dementia. Aim for organic berries, as pesticides are hard to wash away due to their size.
These are just a few of the anti- inflammatory foods!
