Anti-inflammatory Diet from
I came across a good website on inflammation. If you haven't seen the site before visit it and see what you learn..
CS and others, what do you think about the diet below:
CS and others, what do you think about the diet below:
Source URL: http://coolinginflammation.blogspot.com/search/label/anti-inflammatory%20dietComponents of an Anti-inflammatory Diet (focus on meats, fish, eggs and leafy vegetables)
* Low starch and other simple sugars -- insulin and high blood glucose are inflammatory; so use complex polysaccharides (not starch); starch only in small portions (1/2 banana or one side of a hamburger bun) and preferably in unprocessed, less available forms, e.g. coarse ground or fat coated -- bread with butter; less than 30 gm in any meal, less is healthier, grains are frequently a problem -- gluten intolerance
* No high fructose corn syrup -- high free fructose (in contrast to sucrose) is inflammatory and contributes to crosslinking of collagen fibers, which means prematurely aged skin; sucrose is much better than alternative sweeteners
* High ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fats -- most vegetable oils (olive oil is the exception) are very high in omega-6 fats and are inflammatory and should be avoided; omega-3 fats from fish oil cannot have their full anti-inflammatory impact in the presence of vegetable oils; omega-3 supplements are needed to overcome existing inflammation -- take with saturated fats
* No trans fats -- all are inflammatory
* Probiotics and prebiotics -- the bacteria in your gut are vitally important in reducing inflammation; most of the bacteria that initially colonize breastfed babies and are also present in fermented products seem to be helpful; formula quickly converts baby gut bacteria to inflammatory species and should be avoided completely for as long as possible to permit the baby’s immune system to mature (at least 6 months exclusive breastfeeding.)
* Saturated fats appear to be problematical primarily if chronic inflammation is established. Saturated fats are healthy in the absence of inflammation.
* Vegetable antioxidants -- vegetables and fruits, along with coffee and chocolate supply very useful, anti-inflammatory anti-oxidants
* Sensible daily supplements: 1,000 mg vitamin C; 2,000-5,000 i.u vitamin D3 (to produce serum levels of 60ng/ml); 750 mg glucosamine
* Associated anti-inflammatory lifestyle components:exercise (cardiovascular and muscle building),
minimizing body fat,
dental hygiene

lol, for those wishing it was vaginal stimulation I have bad news, it's not vaginal its vagal, the Vagus nerve is in the brain or back of the neck, read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vagus_nervecpio wrote:

Re: Anti-inflammatory Diet from
Good one, coffee and chocolate - I have heard both arguments for and against them. I don't know which to believe.
I know some have used coffee topically as well.
Anyone has the final word on coffee and chocolate internally and coffee topically? Anti-inflammatory or inflammatory?

Confused about coffee
Dr Weil says to avoid coffee if you want to reduce inflammation
http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/ART02012/anti-inflammatory-diet
but I have seen studies saying that coffee is anti-inflammatory and good for health.
I am confused , hopefully CS will chime in with his opinion on coffee (internally and topically) and chocolate.

I would say coffee and chocolate should be good, but the problem is people usually load them with sugar,or HFCS if premade in a bottle and sometimes have hydrogenated oils added in chocolate products and powdered coffee.

Re: Anti-inflammatory Diet from
I highly recommend his advice (Art Ayers, PhD). I have posted a few of his articles.
Read the comments and also his comments on gut flora and the enormous effect on health.
He recommends taking saturated fats and omega-3, both healthy and shouldnt be reduced.
Only eliminate grains and vegetable oils (except for coconut and some olive oil).
