Hidden Knee Pain Triggers - The Seven Evil Inflammatory Foods to Avoid
By Dr. Paul Anderson, M.D. Sports Medicine Expert
One of your hidden knee pain triggers may be the Seven Evil Inflammatory Foods. These are foods that trigger massive body inflammation which, in turn, further inflames your knee cartilage damage.
Here are the seven evil foods to avoid. These are the foods that inflame your knee joints and suck the life right out of you:
1. Trans Fats
2. Sugar
3. Nightshades
4. All Artificial Sweeteners
5. Vegetable oils (except for our favorites, organic extra virgin olive and coconut oil
6. Beef and Dairy
7. All wheat - including pasta, gluten and flour
One Common Evil Food Group - The Nightshades
In a study published in the Journal of the International Academy of Prevention Medicine, of the 5,000 arthritis sufferers who simply eliminated nightshades from their diet, 70% reported significant relief from aches and pains.
Foods in the nightshade family include tomatoes, white potatoes (not sweet potatoes which are from a different family), eggplant, all peppers (red, yellow, orange, green and hot) and paprika. Paprika is in almost everything because it’s a good coloring agent. You really need to be on the lookout for it.
The goods news is that even if your knee pain flares from one of the nightshades, it doesn’t mean that you’ll react to all of them. My suggestion is to stop all the nightshades for two weeks. Then, gradually add them back in, one every 24 hours and monitor yourself for a reaction. If you don’t flare-up, then that nightshade is good for you. For example, I can’t eat tomatoes, potatoes and eggplant without flaring my knee arthritis - but I have no problem with peppers.
