11. Pineapple, cinnamon and oat smoothie
If you’re on the search for a great way to start your day, then it’s worth going for something knee-friendly such as cinnamon, pineapple or oats smoothie. This will give you whole grains, some vitamin C and bromelain from pineapple which is a strong anti-inflammatory. Cinnamon goes a long way in reducing swelling around the joints and minimizes the pain you feel too. It also gives you that flavorful touch or kick. To properly make it, combine a cup of oats that have already been cooked, a cup of orange juice, some chopped pineapple, just about three cups of them, a cup of water, some ground cinnamon, and a teaspoon of honey. Put all the ingredients you have in a blender leaving only the oats. Reduce the heat to low and wait for twenty seconds after which you can slowly add the cooked oatmeal. Blend this until it’s smooth enough.
Each of the foods mentioned above is helpful in reducing inflammation which is the leading source of pain in your joints. The body normally uses inflammation as some kind of defense mechanism so that your injury or the illness is restricted to a single location which is good. Sometimes even despite the fact that there isn’t much of a risk of spreading, inflammation still happens. A case in which there is actually no reason to experience suffering.
When you eat a balanced diet that is full of any of the above foods, you will to a great extent be able to quell inflammation and any pain that comes as a result of it. When you make an effort to eat better, you will be able to get rid of any pain and also reduce just how much you rely on pain medication.
