Anti-inflammatory food:

1. Fish

Omega-3 fatty acids can inhibit inflammation, and salmon, sardines and cod are rich in such substances. People with chronic inflammation can eat some properly at ordinary times.

2. Coarse grains

Whole grain foods and coarse grains that have not been refined are slow to digest, which can prevent blood sugar from rising sharply and help control inflammation. Whole grains include millet and brown rice. Some high-quality beans, such as adzuki beans, mung beans and peas, are rich in B vitamins, magnesium, potassium and soluble dietary fiber, and have low glycemic index, which is beneficial to anti-inflammation.

3. Fruits and vegetables

All green leafy vegetables are rich in magnesium, which is beneficial to relieve inflammation. Apples, oranges, grapes and dark green leafy vegetables are rich in polyphenols, and yellow-orange foods such as carrots and pumpkins are rich in carotenoids, both of which are beneficial to reduce inflammatory reactions.

Dietary taboos:

1. When there is inflammation, we should eat less and eat foods with high fat content, such as fat beef and streaky pork, because when there is inflammation in our body, these substances will promote the occurrence and development of body inflammation.

2. Hyperglycemia can also increase the inflammatory reaction, so when there is inflammation, we should control postprandial blood sugar, eat less sweets and polished rice flour, increase the proportion of miscellaneous grains, potatoes and vegetables, and reduce the blood sugar reaction.

3. The food containing a lot of refined flour will produce proinflammatory factors, which is related to its rapid blood sugar rise. Hyperglycemia will promote the development of inflammatory reaction, therefore, sweet drinks, sweet bread and cakes should be eaten as little as possible.
