150 Reports of Nutritional Benefits of Barley Juice

Even though thousands of people have experienced outstanding results worldwide using nutrition to overcome sickness and disease, federal regulations in both the United States and Canada strictly prohibit making any claims that foods are used in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease.

Dr. Wigmore - Die Getreidesaft-Pionierin

Ann Wigmore heilte Schwerkranke und Bettlägerige mit Weizen- und Gerstengras

Dr. Wigmore kam ursprünglich aus Litauen. Sie konnte beobachten wie ihre Großmutter im ersten Weltkrieg verletzte Soldaten mit Weizen- und Gerstengras heilte,das sie ihren Patienten zu trinken gab und auf Wunden band. Als Ann Wigmore, die in die Vereinigten Staaten ausgewandert war, ernsthaft an einer Colitis (Dickdarmentzündung) erkrankte, erinnerte sie sich an die Heilkünste ihre Großmutter. Sie begann, Weizen- und Gerstengras, das in der Nähe ihres Hauses wuchs, auszukauen, und nach kurzer Zeit war sie nicht nur von ihrer Krankheit geheilt, sondern ihre schon weiß gewordenen Haare bekamen wieder ihre ursprüngliche braune Haarfarbe.

Pfefferminzöl – Menthae piperitae aetheroleum

Innerlich wie äußerlich bei Schmerzen wirksam Die Pfefferminze (Mentha piperita) umfasst zwei Wirkstoffe: Pfefferminzblätter (Menthae piperitae folium) und die daraus gewonnenen ätherischen Öle (Menthae piperitae aetheroleum). Pfefferminzöl besteht aus verschiedenen ätherischen Ölen, die ihre Wirkungen zusammen je nach Anwendungsort sehr unterschiedlich entfalten. Innerlich angewendet nützen die ätherischen Öle vor allem bei Problemen im Magen- und Darmbereich und bei Verdauungsbeschwerden. Hierbei kann der Wirkstoff einerseits Entzündungen hemmen und anderseits die Verdauung verbessern. Sowohl innerlich als auch äußerlich angewendet regt das Öl der Pfefferminze die Bronchialsekretion an und kann daher bei Entzündungen der oberen Luftwege hilfreich sein. Bei Schmerzen der Muskeln, Nerven und bei Kopfschmerzen sowie bei Juckreiz kommt der nachweislich schmerzblockierende Effekt des Pfefferminzöls zum Tragen. Auf einen Blick: Pfefferminzöl Wirkt: krampflösend, blähungstreibend, galletreibend, gegen Bakterien, sekrettreibend, kühlend, beschleunigend auf die Magenentleerung, örtlich betäubend, gewebereizend Kann innerlich eingesetzt werden bei: krampfartigen Magen-Darmbeschwerden und Beschwerden der Gallenwege, Reizdarmsyndrom, Mundschleimhautentzündungen Kann innerlich und äußerlich eingesetzt werden bei: Entzündungen der oberen Luftwege Kann äußerlich eingesetzt werden bei: Muskelschmerzen, Nervenschmerzen, Kopfschmerzen, Juckreiz Inhaltsstoffe des Pfefferminzöls Pfefferminzöl setzt sich aus verschiedenen ätherischen Ölen zusammen, davon gehören drei zu den wirksamkeitsbestimmenden Inhaltsstoffen: Menthol, Menthon und Menthofuran. Sie werden durch Wasserdampfdestillation aus den Blättern gewonnen. Besonders bekannt ist sicherlich Menthol. Tatsächlich bildet es mit mindestens 44% des Gesamtanteils an ätherischen Ölen den größten Posten (Zusammensetzung s. Herstellung) in der Pfefferminze. Dennoch werden die meisten Wirkungen nur durch das Zusammenspiel mit den anderen Komponenten erreicht. Anwendung bei Blähungen, Völlegefühl, Appetitlosigkeit, krampfartigen Magen-Darmbeschwerden und Reizdarm Natürliche Hilfe für die Verdauung und bei Schmerzen Pfefferminzöl ist ein großartiger Wirkstoff, der je nach Anwendungsart kleine Wunder vollbringen kann. Innerlich eingesetzt wirken die ätherischen Öle des Minzöls auf die Muskulatur im Magen-Darmbereich. Vergleichbar mit der Wirkung der Pfefferminzblätter verhindern die Komponenten in dem Pfefferminzöl den Calciumeinstrom in die Zellen. Aus diesem Grund kommt es zu einer entspannenden und entkrampfenden Wirkung im Magen-Darmbereich. Ebenfalls vergleichbar mit der Wirkung der Pfefferminzblätter sind die Effekte des Pfefferminzöls auf die Speiseröhre – oder besser gesagt: auf den Schließmuskel der Speiseröhre. Das Öl vermindert die Geschwindigkeit der Schließmuskelarbeit, daher kann sich der Magen schneller entleeren Anwendung bei Erkältung und Husten, Bronchitis, Schnupfen und Stomatitis Ätherische Öle bei Infekten und Entzündungen Unterschiedlich ist allerdings die Wirkung auf die Bronchien. Der gesamte Bronchialbaum ist mit mikroskopisch kleinen Flimmerhärchen ausgekleidet. Sie befördern Fremdstoffe aus den Lungen nach draußen. Pfefferminzöl regt diese Härchen zu erhöhter Tätigkeit an, sodass auch festsitzender Schleim abgehustet werden kann. Darüber hinaus besitzt das Öl Wirkungen gegen Bakterien und Pilze. Besonders bei bakteriellen Infektionen kann es als Inhalation bei Entzündungen der oberen Luftwege wirksam sein. Innerlich angewendet, etwa als Gurgellösung, kann das Pfefferminzöl auch örtlich gegen Bakterien und Pilze wirken. Aus diesem Grund eignet es sich zur Anwendung bei Schleimhautentzündungen im Mund. Anwendung bei Kopfschmerzen Schmerz, lass' nach! Bei Muskel-, Sehnen- und Kopfschmerzen sowie bei Juckreiz wirken die Inhaltsstoffe des Pfefferminzöls äußerlich angewendet ganz anders. Örtlich aufgetragen werden die Kälteempfangsstellen (Rezeptoren) in der Haut angeregt. Der (spürbare) Kältereiz wird weitergeleitet und führt zu einer Blockade der Schmerzleitung. Aus diesem Grund wird das Minzöl heute gerne bei Spannungskopfschmerz bis hin zu Migräne eingesetzt. Pfefferminzöl Darreichungsform und Dosierung des Pfefferminzöls Pfefferminzöl ist Bestandteil zahlreicher Fertigarzneimittel. In diesem Text wird die Anwendung des Pfefferminzöls beispielhaft anhand der Anwendungsbereiche dargestellt. Ätherisches Öl Bei Verdauungsproblemen, Reizdarmsyndrom sowie bei Magen-Darmbeschwerden kann das Pfefferminzöl in seiner reinen Form innerlich angewendet werden. Geben Sie hierzu 2 bis 4 Tropfen auf ein Stückchen Zucker und lassen dieses im Mund zergehen. Dosierung Wenden Sie das ätherische Öl bis zu 3-mal täglich innerlich an bis die Beschwerden nachlassen. Inhalation Bei (beginnenden) Entzündungen der oberen Luftwege wie bei hartnäckigem Husten eignet sich Pfefferminzöl gut zur Inhalation. Geben Sie etwa 1 Liter heißes Wasser in ein Gefäß und 3 bis 5 Tropfen Pfefferminzöl hinzu. Zur Inhalation legen Sie sich bitte ein großes Handtuch über den Kopf, damit die Dämpfe nicht entweichen können, lüften es aber unbedingt nach etwa zehn Atemzügen. Dosierung Inhalieren Sie je nach Intensität der Beschwerden 2- bis 3-mal täglich. Einreibung Bei Muskel-, Sehnen und Kopfschmerzen sowie bei Juckreiz kann das ätherische Öl bei äußerer Anwendung zu guten Erfolgen verhelfen. Reiben Sie hierzu einige Tropfen auf die betroffene Stelle ein. Dosierung Führen Sie die Einreibung je nach Intensität der Beschwerden 1- bis 3-mal täglich durch. Pfefferminzöl Risiken und Nebenwirkungen Bitte beachten Sie: Bei empfindlichen Personen kann es zu Magenbeschwerden kommen. Nicht angewendet werden sollte Pfefferminzöl von Asthmatikern. Bei einem Asthma-Anfall können die enthaltenen ätherischen Öle die Krämpfe verstärken. Ebenfalls sollte auf eine Anwendung bei einem Verschluss der Gallenwege, bei Gallenblasenentzündung und bei schweren Leberschäden verzichtet werden. Durch die gallefördernde Wirkung kann es bei Personen, die an Gallensteinen leiden, zu schweren Krämpfen (Koliken) kommen. Achtung! Wenden Sie das Pfefferminzöl nicht im Bereich des Gesichtes von Säuglingen und Kleinkindern an. Es kann zu einer Verminderung der Atmung bis zur Erstickung kommen. Bitte dosieren Sie die Präparate wie in der Packungsbeilage angegeben bzw. wenden Sie die Dosierung an, die Ihr behandelnder Arzt verordnet hat. Fertigarzneimittel Pfefferminzöl ist als fertiges Arzneimittel in Form von Dragees (bei Magen-Darm-Beschwerden) und als Lösung zur Anwendung auf der Haut (Mittel gegen Spannungskopfschmerzen) verfügbar. In Kombination mit anderen Heilpflanzen erhalten Sie das Öl zum Einreiben, als Nasentropfen und Schnupfencreme bei Erkrankungen der Atemwege sowie in Form von Kapseln (Mittel gegen Magen-Darm-Beschwerden), Pastillen (Schleimlöser) und Flüssigkeit zum Gurgeln (bei Mundentzündungen). Darüber hinaus können Sie das Öl in seiner reinen Form als ätherisches Öl im Handel erwerben. Die ätherischen Öle des Pfefferminzöls wirken innerlich angewendet nachweislich bei krampfartigen Beschwerden im oberen Magen-Darmbereich und im Bereich der Gallenwege sowie beim Reizdarmsyndrom und bei Mundschleimhautentzündungen. Innerlich und äußerlich eingesetzt hilft das Pfefferminzöl erwiesenermaßen gegen Entzündungen der oberen Luftwege. In seinem äußerlichen Einsatz wirkt das Pfefferminzöl erwiesenermaßen bei Muskel-, Nerven- und Kopfschmerzen sowie bei Juckreiz. In der Volksheilkunde wird Pfefferminzöl entsprechend der offiziell anerkannten Wirkungen eingesetzt. Geschrieben von Dr. rer. medic.

Rosmarinöl - Rosmarini aetheroleum

Ätherische Öle für eine gute Verdauung, gesunde Muskeln und einen stabilen Blutdruck

Der Rosmarin (Rosmarinus officinalis) hat zwei medizinische Wirkstoffe: sein ätherisches Öl und seine Blätter. Rosmarinöl besitzt keine eigenständige offizielle Bewertung (Monographie), sondern ist Teil der Beurteilung der Blätter. Das liegt daran, dass es die gleichen wirksamkeitsbestimmenden Inhaltstoffe wie Rosmarinblätter besitzt. Es kann daher von identischen Wirkungen ausgegangen werden.

Rosmarinöl eignet sich gut zur inneren Anwendung bei Magen-Darmproblemen, vor allem wenn die Verdauung beeinträchtigt ist. Äußerlich eingesetzt, nützt Rosmarinöl nachweislich gegen Kreislaufbeschwerden durch zu niedrigen Blutdruck und bei rheumatischen Erkrankungen, die mit Muskelschmerzen verbunden sind.

Auf einen Blick:

Rosmarinöl

Wirkt innerlich angewandt: krampflösend an den Gallenwegen und am Dünndarm, steigernd auf die Schlagkraft des Herzens, steigernd auf die Durchblutung des Herzens, schützend auf die Leberzellen, gegen Bakterien und Pilze

Wirkt äußerlich angewandt: durchblutungsfördernd, hautreizend

Kann innerlich eingesetzt werden: bei Magen-Darmproblemen

Kann äußerlich eingesetzt werden: bei Kreislaufbeschwerden, bei rheumatischen Erkrankungen

Inhaltsstoffe von Rosmarinöl

Rosmarinöl ist ein ätherisches Öl, das nach den Vorgaben des Europäischen Arzneibuches (PhEur) mehr als 3% Hydroxyzimtsäurederivate enthalten muss, um als pflanzliches Arzneimittel eingesetzt werden zu dürfen. Dieser Mindestgehalt ist deswegen von Bedeutung, weil die Zusammensetzung des Öls von seiner Herkunft (z.B. Spanien oder Marokko) abhängig ist.

Für die Wirkung des Rosmarinöls sind hauptsächlich die ätherisch-Öl Komponenten 1,8-Cineol (16 bis 55%) und Campher (5 bis 15%) verantwortlich.

Anwendung bei Magen-Darmbeschwerden

Verdauungsfördernd und entkrampfend auf den Magen-Darmtrakt

Es gibt eine ganze Reihe von Heilpflanzen, die bei Magen-Darmbeschwerden wirksam helfen können. Das besondere am Rosmarinöl ist seine milde Wirkung, die die Verdauung einerseits sanft ankurbelt und andererseits schädliche Keime wie Bakterien und Pilze abtöten kann.

Rosmarinöl hat einen aromatischen und intensiven Geruch, sein Geschmack ist leicht scharf und bitter und regt die Speichelproduktion an. Diese Wirkung macht Appetit, darum kann Rosmarinöl sehr gut bei mangelnder Esslust eingesetzt werden.

Mindestens genauso wichtig sind aber die Wirkungen auf den Verdauungsprozess. Dadurch, dass die Speicheldrüsen bei der Aufnahme von Rosmarinöl ihre Produktion erhöhen, können einerseits Zucker (Kohlenhydrate) leichter aufgespalten werden, zusätzlich wird die Nahrung gleitfähig gemacht.

Im Magen nützt das ätherische Öl gegen mögliche Bakterien und Pilze, möglicherweise sogar gegen das gefürchtete Helicobater pylori Bakterium, das starke Reizmagensymptome verursachen kann.

Rosmarinöl regt die Gallensaftproduktion an, dies wirkt sich erleichternd auf die Fettverdauung aus. Diese Wirkung ist von hoher Bedeutung, weil während des gesamten Verdauungsprozesses natürlicherweise Gase entstehen. Durch die beschleunigte Verdauung können die Nährstoffe schneller vom Körper aufgenommen werden, Blähungen entstehen erst gar nicht oder werden gelindert.

Möglicherweise übt Rosmarinöl außerdem eine Schutzwirkung auf die Leberzellen aus. Dieser Effekt konnte im Rahmen von Laboruntersuchungen ermittelt werden. Analysen ergaben, dass Substanzen, die für die Leber giftig sind, durch Rosmarin vermindert werden konnten.

Anwendung bei rheumatischen Erkrankungen

Durchblutungsfördernd bei Muskelschmerzen und Rheuma

Mit rheumatischen Erkrankungen ist meist das sogenannte Weichteilrheuma gemeint. Weichteilrheuma kann entweder einzelne Stellen wie Sehnen oder Schleimbeutel betreffen oder sich weiter ausbreiten. Bei einer Verbreiterung über den gesamten Bewegungsapparat wird von Fibromyalgie gesprochen.

Bei rheumatischen Erkrankungen kommt es oft zu Muskelschmerzen oder zu Entzündungen, Muskelschmerzen können aber auch andere Ursachen haben wie etwa Muskelkater.

Rosmarinöl kann bei Muskelschmerzen und rheumatischen Beschwerden bei äußerer Anwendung Schmerzen entgegenwirken. Durch seine reizende Wirkung auf die Haut kommt es zur Durchblutungsförderung – auch der Gewebe. Deshalb lockert sich die Muskulatur und der Schmerz lässt nach. Zusätzlich kann das Rosmarinöl Entzündungen entgegenwirken, indem es entzündungsauslösende Stoffe wie Prostaglandine an ihrer Entstehung hindert.

Anwendung bei Kreislaufproblemen

Stabilisierend bei niedrigem Blutdruck

Vor allem schlanke junge Frauen, leiden häufig an niedrigem Blutdruck. Es können aber auch andere Ursachen einer solchen arteriellen Hypotonie zugrunde liegen. Zum Beispiel Nierenerkrankungen. Oft zeigt sich niedriger Blutdruck durch Schwindelanfälle oder sogar kurzer Bewusstlosigkeit.

Vor allem wenn keine organische Ursache vorliegt, ist Rosmarinöl ein gut geeignetes pflanzliches Therapeutikum zur Stärkung der Herzleistung. Seine Inhaltsstoffe regen die Herzmuskelzellen an, sich stärker zusammen zu ziehen. Dadurch kann der Blutdruck leicht erhöht werden. Außerdem kann Rosmarinöl die Durchblutung des Herzens fördern.

Alles in allem fördert Rosmarinöl dadurch das Wohlbefinden – und als Badezusatz angewendet, vertreibt es die Kälte aus dem Körper.

Risiken und Nebenwirkungen

Bitte beachten Sie: Risiken und Nebenwirkungen sind bei der Anwendung von bestimmungsgemäßen Dosen (Tagesdosis als Infus 10 bis 20 g Tropfen) des Rosmarinöls nicht bekannt.

Allerdings sollten Sie bei bestehenden Erkrankungen der Gallenwege, wie Gallensteine oder Verschluss der Gallenwege, vor der inneren Anwendung des Rosmarinöls Rücksprache mit Ihrem behandelnden Arzt halten.

Bei offenen Wunden, Infektionen und Fieber, Herzschwäche, schweren Kreislauferkrankungen wie Bluthochdruck darf Rosmarinöl in Form von Badezusätzen nicht angewendet werden.

Da Untersuchungen zur Unbedenklichkeit bei Schwangerschaft, während der Stillzeit und bei Kindern und Jugendlichen unter 12 Jahren bisher noch nicht vorliegen, wird die Anwendung von Rosmarinöl nicht empfohlen.

Bitte dosieren Sie die Präparate wie in der Packungsbeilage angegeben, bzw. wenden Sie die Dosierung an, die Ihr behandelnder Arzt verordnet hat.

Fertigarzneimittel

Rosmarinöl ist als Fertigarzneimittel in Kombination mit anderen Pflanzen in Form von Salbe, Creme und einer öligen Einreibung verfügbar (Mittel gegen Herzbeschwerden, rheumabedingte Muskelschmerzen, Nervenschmerzen sowie gegen Erkrankungen der Atemwege). Außerdem erhalten Sie das Öl in seiner reinen ätherischen Form in Ihrer Apotheke.

Rosmarinöl besitzt keine eigenständige offizielle Beschreibung der Wirksamkeit. Es wirkt wie Rosmarinblätter, da die Inhaltstoffe identisch sind, im Rosmarinöl jedoch konzentrierter vorkommen. Innerlich eingesetzt hilft Rosmarinöl nachweislich bei Magen-Darmbeschwerden, die mit einer schlechten Verdauung und Blähungen einhergehen. Wird das ätherische Öl äußerlich angewandt nützt es erwiesenermaßen gegen Kreislaufprobleme, die durch niedrigen Blutdruck verursacht werden und bei rheumatischen Beschwerden, wie Muskelschmerzen.

In der Volksmedizin wird Rosmarinöl bei innerlich Verdauungsbeschwerden, Kopfschmerzen, Migräne, Menstruationsbeschwerden, Erschöpfung, Schwindel, Konzentrations- und Gedächtnisschwierigkeiten eingesetzt. Äußerlich findet Rosmarinöl bei Hexenschuss Anwendung.

Health benefits

Garlic is a strong antibiotic with a wide range of health benefits. Unlike chemical antibiotics that kill millions of friendly bacteria your body needs, its only goal is bacteria and microorganisms. Garlic also encourages and increases the level of healthy bacteria. It is a powerful antifungal agent and destroys any antigen, pathogen, and harmful disease-causing microorganisms.

Onion is garlic’s closest relative ​​and it has a similar but milder action. Together they create a strong fighting duo.

Horseradish is a powerful herb, efficient for sinuses and lungs. It opens sinus channels and increases circulation, where common colds and flu usually begin, as most doctors would agree.

Ginger has powerful anti-inflammatory properties and it is a strong circulation stimulant.

Chili peppers are the most powerful circulation stimulators. They just send their antibiotic properties to fight the disease where it is mostly needed.

Turmeric is the most perfect spice, cleanses infections and reduces inflammation. Blocks the development of cancer, and prevents dementia. It is especially useful for those who struggle with joint pain.

Apple cider vinegar – there must be something very healthy in the use of apple cider vinegar as the father of medicine, Hippocrates, used vinegar around 400 BC because of its healthy properties. It is said that he used only two remedies: honey and apple cider vinegar.

Apple cider vinegar is made from fresh and ripe apples which are later fermented and go through rigorous process to give the final product. Apple cider vinegar contains pectin, a fiber that reduces bad cholesterol and regulates blood pressure.

Health experts agree that people need more calcium as they get old. Vinegar helps the extraction of calcium from foods it is mixed with, which helps in the process of maintaining bone strength. Potassium deficiency causes a variety of problems including hair loss, brittle nails and teeth, sinusitis, and runny nose.

Apple cider vinegar is rich in potassium. Studies have shown that potassium deficiency results in slow growth. All of these problems can be avoided if you use apple cider vinegar regularly. Potassium also removes toxic wastes from the body.

Beta-carotene prevents damage caused by free radicals, maintains skin firm and young. Apple cider vinegar is good for those who want to lose weight.

It breaks up fat which supports a natural weight loss process. Apple cider vinegar contains malic acid, efficient in the fight against fungal and bacterial infections. This acid dissolves uric acid deposits that form around the joints, and thus alleviates joint pain. Dissolved uric acid is later eliminated from the body.

It is believed that apple cider vinegar is useful in treating conditions like constipation, headaches, arthritis, weak bones, indigestion, high cholesterol, diarrhea, eczema, sore eyes, chronic fatigue, mild food poisoning, hair loss, high blood pressure, obesity, and many other health problems.

Four Spices That Pack a Powerful Anti-Inflammatory Punch

For one week, 10 to 12 subjects in each of 13 groups consumed a small amount of a particular spice each day. For example, those in the oregano group ate just half a teaspoon of oregano daily for seven days. Blood samples were drawn one hour prior to consumption, and at the very end of the experiment. The participants’ blood was then analyzed for antioxidant capacity. The researchers also analyzed how well the blood could dampen an induced inflammatory response in white blood cells. This was done by placing the participants’ blood onto white blood cells that had been damaged by oxidized cholesterol (commonly found in fried foods). Even at the “everyday” dosage amounts given, four spices were found to be significantly effective at quelling the inflammatory response: 1.Cloves 2.Ginger 3.Rosemary 4.Turmeric As noted in the featured article: “[T]he results represents what might happen when cells in our body are exposed to the levels of spices that circulate in our bloodstream after normal daily consumption—not megadoses in some pill. Just the amount that makes our spaghetti sauce, pumpkin pie, or curry sauce taste good.” Other Potent Anti-Inflammatory Spices An earlier study published in the Journal of Medicinal Foods3 found a direct correlation between the antioxidant phenol content of spice and herb extracts and their ability to inhibit glycation and block the formation of AGE compounds (advanced glycation end products), making them potent preventers of heart disease and premature aging. Here, cloves were ranked as the most potent of 24 common herbs and spices found in your spice rack. In all, the following were found to be the top 10 most potent anti-inflammatory herbs and spices: 1.Cloves 2.Cinnamon 3.Jamaican allspice 4.Apple pie spice mixture 5.Oregano 6.Pumpkin pie spice mixture 7.Marjoram 8.Sage 9.Thyme 10. Gourmet Italian spice Inflammation Is at the Heart of Most Chronic Diseases It’s important to realize that chronic inflammation is the source of many if not most diseases, including cancer, obesity, and heart disease, which essentially makes it the leading cause of death in the US. While inflammation is a perfectly normal and beneficial process that occurs when your body's white blood cells and chemicals protect you from foreign invaders like bacteria and viruses, it leads to trouble when the inflammatory response gets out of hand. Your diet has a lot to do with this chain of events. While among the most potent, ounce for ounce, herbs and spices are certainly not the only anti-inflammatory ingredients available. A number of foods are well-known for their anti-inflammatory properties, and making sure you’re eating a wide variety of them on a regular basis can go a long way toward preventing chronic illness. Top Seven Anti-Inflammatory Foods The following foods and nutrients deserve special mention for their ability to quell inflammatory responses in your body: 1. Animal-based omega-3 fat Animal-based omega-3 fats—found in fatty fish like wild Alaskan salmon and fish- or krill oil—help fight inflammation throughout your body. It’s particularly important for brain health. Research published in the Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology4 in 2012 confirmed that dietary supplementation with krill oil effectively reduced inflammation and oxidative stress. 2. Leafy greens Dark leafy greens such as kale, spinach, collard greens and Swiss chard contain powerful antioxidants, flavonoids, carotenoids, and vitamin C—all of which help protect against cellular damage. Ideally, opt for organic locally grown veggies that are in season, and consider eating a fair amount of them raw. Juicing is an excellent way to get more greens into your diet. 3. Blueberries Blueberries rate very high in antioxidant capacity compared to other fruits and vegetables. They are also lower in sugar than many other fruits. 4. Tea Matcha tea is the most nutrient-rich green tea and comes in the form of a stone-ground unfermented powder. The best Matcha comes from Japan and has up to 17 times the antioxidants of wild blueberries, and seven times more than dark chocolate. Tulsi is another tea loaded with anti-inflammatory antioxidants and other micronutrients that support immune function and heart health. 5. Fermented vegetables and traditionally cultured foods Optimizing your gut flora is important for a well-functioning immune system, and helps ward off chronic inflammation. In fact, the majority of inflammatory diseases start in your gut, as the result of an imbalanced microbiome. Fermented foods such as kefir, natto, kimchee, miso, tempeh, pickles, sauerkraut, olives, and other fermented vegetables, will help ‘reseed’ your gut with beneficial bacteria. Fermented foods can also help your body rid itself of harmful toxins such as heavy metals and pesticides that promote inflammation. 6. Shiitake mushrooms Shiitake mushrooms contain strong compounds with the natural ability to discourage inflammation, such as Ergothioneine, which inhibits oxidative stress. They also contain a number of unique nutrients that many do not get enough of in their diet. One is copper, which is one of the few metallic elements accompanied by amino and fatty acids that are essential to human health. Since your body can't synthesize copper, your diet must supply it regularly. Copper deficiency can be a factor in the development of coronary heart disease. 7. Garlic Garlic has been treasured for its medicinal properties for centuries. It’s also one of the most heavily researched plant foods around. Over 170 studies5 show it benefitting more than 150 different conditions. Garlic exerts its benefits on multiple levels, offering anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, and antioxidant properties. It's thought that much of garlic's therapeutic effect comes from its sulfur-containing compounds, such as allicin. Research6 has revealed that as allicin digests in your body it produces sulfenic acid, a compound that reacts faster with dangerous free radicals than any other known compound. Your Diet Is Key for Reducing Chronic Inflammation The running thread linking a wide variety of common health problems—from obesity and diabetes to heart disease and cancer—is chronic inflammation. The key to reducing chronic inflammation in your body starts with your diet, and being liberal in your use of high-quality herbs and spices is one simple way to boost the quality of your food. They're an inexpensive "secret weapon" that just about everyone can take advantage of. Spicing up your meals is not enough, however, if processed foods comprise the bulk of your diet. It's important to realize that dietary components can either trigger or prevent inflammation from taking root in your body, and processed foods do the latter, courtesy of pro-inflammatory ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, soy, processed vegetable oils (trans fats), and other chemical additives. Besides adding anti-inflammatory foods to your diet, you’ll also want to avoid the following pro-inflammatory dietary culprits as much as possible: •Refined sugar, processed fructose, and grains. If your fasting insulin level is three or above, consider dramatically reducing or eliminating grains and sugars until you optimize your insulin level, as insulin resistance this is a primary driver of chronic inflammation. As a general guideline, I recommend restricting your total fructose intake to 25 grams per day. If you’re insulin or leptin resistant (have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, or are overweight), consider cutting that down to 15 grams per day until your insulin/leptin resistance has normalized •Oxidized cholesterol (cholesterol that has gone rancid, such as that from overcooked, scrambled eggs) •Foods cooked at high temperatures, especially if cooked with vegetable oil (such as peanut, corn, and soy oil) •Trans fats Replacing processed foods with whole, ideally organic foods will automatically address most of these factors, especially if you eat a large portion of your food raw. Equally important is making sure you’re regularly reseeding your gut with beneficial bacteria, as mentioned above. To help you get started on a healthier diet, I suggest following my free Optimized Nutrition Plan, which starts at the beginner phase and systematically guides you step-by-step to the advanced level.
