Tasty Tonawanda Anti-Inflammatory Goodies: Blueberries and Curcumin
Tonawanda patients|Sufferers with inflammatory conditions like osteoarthritis (OA) may benefit from tasty additions to their daily diet. Blueberries and curcumin each offer anti-inflammatory benefits that may well help manage their effects. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation values these easy, tasty options to help combat inflammation by adding these to the rest of the Tonawanda chiropractic treatment plan.
CURCUMIN’S ANTI-INFLAMMATORY IMPACT ON DISEASE
For over 4000 years, curcumin’s healthy benefits – including its ability to lessen human diseases/conditions like diabetes, cancer, and inflammation - have been known. A new review of studies highlighted curcumin’s effectiveness in treating neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s ALS, and MS. (1) Your Tonawanda chiropractor particularly values curcumin’s anti-inflammatory properties for dealing with osteoarthritis (OA). A chronic degenerative disease, osteoarthritis isn’t a condition with a sure cure, but curcumin’s anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties excel in their therapeutic value for OA management. Researchers specifically described the chondroprotective effects curcumin has. (2) Compared to the common treatment of OA – NSAIDs, corticosteroids, etc. – curcumin offered a protective effect against OA with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant factors in a study of osteoarthritis rats. One of the many benefits described in this study was that arthritic conditions as well as serum biomarkers TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-10, COMP, and CRP reduced after 4 weeks of use. (3) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation bets our typical, older OA patient who has trouble walking will value this!
BLUEBERRIES’ ANTI-INFLAMMATORY BENEFITS
Not that curcumin IS NOT tasty, but blueberries may come to mind as being the tastier of the two! Good thing! Blueberries, too, offer anti-inflammatory positive attributes. Rich in bioactive substances as well as other healthy properties - anti-oxidant, neuroprotective, anti-obesity, anti-cancer – blueberries are documented to help treat cancer, lower metabolic syndrome, and protect liver function via their ability to intervene in nuclear receptor activity. (4) Blueberries work at the cellular level! They slackened the production of inflammatory factors, particularly TNF, ESR1, AGTR1 and IGF1. (5) Another study recommended daily blueberry eating may reduce pain, stiffness, and difficulty performing daily tasks as well as bettering gait may well improve quality of life for knee OA sufferers who find walking difficult. (6) Blueberries are tasty picks to add to your nutrition plan for those experiencing the effects of inflammation.
