There are plenty of natural superfoods
with powerful anti-inflammatory properties that can ease your joint pain and
kill inflammation in it's tracks. One of the single MOST powerful
anti-inflammatory foods actually ranked #1 is...
Tart cherries! (or tart cherry extract or concentrate)
Studies have shown that the anthocyanins and phenolics in tart cherries have a powerful effect in reducing the inflammation that can cause joint pain. In fact, according to researchers from the Oregon Health & Science University, tart cherries have the "highest anti-inflammatory content of any food".
Tart cherries also have a long history in helping people get relief with Gout or Osteoarthritis.
Note that sweet cherries can have some benefits as well, but tart cherries have been identified in research to have larger quantities of the anti-inflammatory phytonutrients. One thing that you could do is to add a little bit of tart cherry concentrate (about 1 tsp) to your daily glass of unsweetened iced tea, and also use frozen cherries frequently in smoothies. This will helps you to maintain your joint health as you get older. Give it a try for yourself!
