Inflammation is the body’s response to an infection or an injury. There are 2 types of inflammation: Chronic and acute.
Chronic inflammation tends to be persistent. It has been linked to conditions as serious as asthma, heart disease, and cancer. Chronic inflammation can also cause day-to-day ailments, and you may not even know it.
Diet can go a long way in helping relieve chronic inflammation. Fresh fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants, which act as anti-inflammatory agents.
Juicing is a great way to receive these benefits.
This chronic inflammation juice recipe includes potent healing foods.
Pineapples: They contain bromelain, a natural anti-inflammatory enzyme. This enzyme can rival potent pharmaceuticals such as NSAIDs and steroids.
When bromelain is combined with Indian spice “turmeric” it is even more potent. It also aids with digestion by helping the body break down proteins. It helps healing of bruises and can alleviate arthritis pain.
Pears: They are champions when it comes to phytonutrients like hydroxybenzoic acids, hydroxycinnamic acids, hydroxyquinones, flavanols, and flavonols. These phytonutrients have strong anti-inflammatory properties.
Peaches: They are great for reducing inflammation because of their antioxidant capacity. A study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food showed that an antioxidant called chlorogenic acid, helps kill free radicals, and may reduce inflammation as well.
