EDITOR’S LETTER

WHAT HEALTHY MEANS NOW

UNDERSTANDING INFLAMMATION • Overwhelming evidence suggests that eating an anti-inflammatory diet is the key to staying healthy and preventing disease, as well as slowing the aging process and improving health conditions.

BEST FOODS TO BEAT INFLAMMATION • These top foods contain nutrients and compounds that exert powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in the body. They’re also ones many people aren’t getting near enough of in their diet.

MAKE IT A MOCKTAIL • Cut the alcohol but not the flavor when you fill your cocktail glass with healing ingredients like antioxidant-rich fruits, fresh herbs, and sparkling soda.

BETTER BREAKFASTS • START YOUR DAY WITH FOODS THAT HELP FIGHT INFLAMMATION SUCH AS EGGS, WHOLE GRAINS, YOGURT, AND FRESH BERRIES.

MEATLESS MAINS • RICH IN ANTIOXIDANTS, A PLANT-BASED DIET CAN HELP PREVENT THE DAMAGE TO CELLS AND TISSUES THAT CAN BE CAUSED BY INFLAMMATION.

GO FISH • FISH IS A TOP SOURCE OF OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS. TO HELP REDUCE INFLAMMATION, AIM FOR AT LEAST TWO SERVINGS PER WEEK.

POULTRY & MEATS • FOCUS ON LEAN SOURCES OF PROTEIN AND COMBINE THEM WITH HIGH-FIBER GRAINS AND VEGGIES IN ONE-DISH MEALS. MINIMIZE YOUR INTAKE OF RED MEATS AND AVOID HIGHLY PROCESSED MEATS.

SUPER SALADS • LEAFY SALAD GREENS AND CRUCIFEROUS GREENS CONSISTENTLY MAKE THE TOP 10 LIST OF “BEST ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FOODS.” WHEN COMBINED WITH FRESH FRUIT, NUTS, AND AN OLIVE OIL VINAIGRETTE, THEY MOVE INTO FIRST PLACE.

ON THE SIDE • FIGHT INFLAMMATION AND CHRONIC DISEASE WITH THESE EASY, HIGH-FIBER CRUCIFEROUS AND ROOT VEGGIE SIDE DISHES.

JUST DESSERTS • CUTTING BACK ON SUGARY FOODS CAN HELP DECREASE INFLAMMATION. ENJOY THESE REDUCED-SUGAR DESSERTS THAT ARE PACKED WITH BERRIES AND PROBIOTIC INGREDIENTS.
