Many people suffer from joint
pain and arthritis and it is
the leading cause of disability in persons aged 65 and above. Lingering pain that accompanies arthritis can
be debilitating and could change your whole lifestyle. Arthritis pain is caused
primarily due to joint swelling and when joint tissues are damaged and can be
due to too much of stress, depression, tiredness or injury. Being overweight
also puts extra burden on the joints and contributes to joint pain.
Inflammation and stiffness of joints limits activities like
bending, walking, climbing stairs etc., and also affects daily activities like
household chores. The first way is to
maintain optimum weight and do light exercises every day to remain fit which helps smoothen the joint movements. People
suffering from arthritis should also stop smoking, remain stress free and have
enough of peaceful sleep.
For easing of joint and arthritic pain, you should eat the
right kind of foods that are good for inflammation of the joints such as oranges,
limes, grapefruits, and lemons which contain vitamin C. Avoid sugar as it is known to cause
inflammation. Have Lemon or limewater to
start your day as it is good for your joints.
Eat apples, berries and cherries, vegetables like broccoli, spinach that
help in removing toxins from the body and is also good for joint pain.
Besides eating healthy foods that help in overall health,
