Can someone put into plain language what an inflammatory diet is?
Ever see a fire-eater at the circus?
Beef. Good old American beef
- Desserts, breads, chips, sugars - bad
- Partially hydrogenated fats (Used to be in Twinkies and about everything else)
- Omega-6 fats: Most fried foods from restaurants, Safflower Oil, Corn Oil, Sunflower Oil, Cottonseed Oil, Peanut Oil, and Almond Oil appear to have the most Omega-6 fats. Soybean Oil has somewhat less, but is pretty commonly eaten, so it has a outsized impact on adding Omega-6 fats i to our diets.
These are the worst offenders. Technically speaking, saturated fats are neither pro or anti-inflammatory, but this study author threw them in.
Omega-3 fats are anti-inflammatory fats and antioxidant foods good for you, too.
Yes. Foods containing sugar, corn syrup, white flour, margarine, and other types of processed junk food will cause inflammation (esp. those with sugar). Recommend eating whole foods to avoid inflammation. Those are foods you have to cut up and eat raw or cook (fresh fruits & vegetables, meat). Whole grains are also good. Dairy is ok in moderation (cheese, yogurt, milk). Olive oil.
Processed foods, sugar, soybean oil, high fructose corn syrup and potential allergans sometimes such as gluten dairy etc

Processed foods....crackers, cookies, packaged cakes/bakery items, candies....soft drinks....
Basically, most everything that is NOT on the perimeter of the grocery store, such as produce, dairy, and, the bad stuff is in the middle (stuff on the inside aisles)...with a very few exceptions.
Don’t eat pre-processed food from the frozen section every meal. Don’t eat fast food everyday for lunch. Make your own food from scratch. Stop drinking g soda pop.
