The
Anti-Inflammatory Diet
Marion Hauser, M.S, R.D.
Q: Your
newsletter recommends an “anti-inflammatory
diet”, while stating that it is inflammation
that heals the body. Your newsletter also states
to not take anti-inflammatories? I’m confused!
A: This is actually a very interesting question.
First of all, let me explain to our readers
about inflammation: Inflammation is the
process by which the body heals – particularly
related to Caring Medical’s clinic, soft tissue
injuries, including injuries to connective
tissues, ligaments, and
tendons.
So inflammation that heals the body is actually
a good thing. Inflammation helps heal injuries
and protect us from infection. But
uncontrolled, inflammation can be deadly.
Anti-inflammatory medication and
corticosteroids block this process.
Prolotherapy, our mainstay treatment for
chronic
painful conditions, on the other hand, provides
the stimulus that is needed to bring in healing
fibroblasts and allow them to proliferate (where Prolo comes from) and lay down new collagen
fibers. This causes the
connective tissue,
ligaments, and tendons to become thicker and
stronger. Thus,
Prolotherapy
stimulates the normal
inflammatory-reparative mechanisms of the body,
encouraging normal collagen and extracellular
matrix growth.
Inflammatory Foods
The foods you eat play an important role in
how you feel as we have talked about in many of
our newsletters. Consuming huge amounts of junk
foods and fast foods tend to make you feel worse
due to the unhealthy fats and chemicals that are
used in the cooking and packaging processes.
Patients require protein
to rebuild injured tissue and foods such as
meat, poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, and nuts
contain great sources of protein.
Whole vegetables and some fruit are
important for their vitamins, minerals, and
natural antioxidants that aid the healing
process. We recommend that you follow the
appropriate
Hauser Diet in order to get the most
out of your food and produce the best energy.
Watch what you are
eating and monitor if you feel better or worse
with the foods you eat. You’ll be surprised!
Yes, ice cream can cause
knee pain!
As mentioned
above, many people have delayed reactions to
food that may increase inflammation and pain.
These types of “food allergies” may not be
allergies like hayfever, but they do involve the
immune system and can make pain and inflammation
worse. Frequently the underlying problem is due
to faulty digestion or excessive consumption of
any particular food. Most any food that is
consumed more than 4 days a week might be
suspected as a possible allergen, but some of
the more common allergic foods are milk and
dairy, wheat, corn, eggs, beef, yeast, and soy.
Even “healthy” foods can cause problems. We can
test your blood to determine if you have this
problem, or you could just go on an elimination
diet to determine the allergic foods.
Water and Dehydration
We often find dehydration to be a factor
related to level of pain in our patients. When
you do not drink enough water, you tend to hurt
more, consequently, you feel worse. Make sure to
drink at least 6-8 glasses of water every day.
Avoid heavy caffeine and alcohol consumption
because they contain diuretics that may cause
your body to lose water.
