🌿 The Anti-Inflammatory Foods That Actually Work

LIP #239
Jun 05, 2025

Once you've removed the inflammatory foods, it's time to load up on the ones that fight inflammation.

Top anti-inflammatory foods:

  • Turmeric + black pepper — black pepper dramatically increases how much turmeric your body absorbs
  • Ginger — powerful natural anti-inflammatory
  • Vitamin C — acts like a natural preservative inside your body, slowing cell oxidation
  • Cole family vegetables (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, asparagus) — contain sulforaphane, an anticarcinogenic compound
  • Leafy greens — rich in antioxidants
  • Fatty fish (salmon, sardines) — reduce the body's production of cytokines, which are inflammatory compounds
  • Walnuts and flaxseed — packed with healthy fatty acids

The goal isn't just a little of these foods — it's going big on them consistently.
