The S.A.D. is sad on so many levels.
Inflammation. Obesity. Pain. S.A.D. being the Standard American Diet may be addressed
by paying attention to and changing to a more anti-inflammatory diet. Back pain may benefit as
well from an anti-inflammatory diet, so
Malverne Health & Wellness urges an anti-inflammatory diet for
pain relief and even neurological recovery when spinal nerves hurt and are inflamed which causes Malverne back pain and neck pain,
etc. Malverne Health & Wellness oversees the relief of back pain
and neck pain with a comprehensive chiropractic
treatment plan of spinal manipulation, Cox® Technic, exercise and nutritional
diet. Malverne chiropractic patients team up with
Malverne Health & Wellness for the relief of Malverne chronic pain, back pain,
and neck pain.
Malverne DIET AND INFLAMMATION
Diet may play a role in obesity and chronic
pain, not just in weight-bearing joints but other parts of the body as
well. Poor diet often adds to obesity, influences
the immune system unfavorably, and prolongs
recovery from inflammatory injury. A diet that is anti-inflammatory in
nature in place of a pharmacological intervention after injury may well help with
these concerns when replaced
for the Standard American Diet. (1) Malverne chiropractic patients
with chronic pain frequently find some relief with wiser
eating selections.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FOODS
A review of 172 papers suggests
that effects of specific foods are akin
to drug management therapy for chronic pain. Natural compounds like the
phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oil are such.
Carbohydrates with low glycemic indices eaten three
times a day along with fruits and vegetables, yogurt, red wine
are good on a daily basis. Fish and legumes, white meat, eggs and
cheese and red meats can be interspersed weekly. It’s
not bad to have sweets occasionally! (2) That
makes it more palatable to manage
a diet change! Eating this way helps manage
inflammation/oxidative stress that results in pain relief.
DIET CHANGE FOR NEUROLOGICAL REPAIR
A fashionable diet called the ketogenic diet may be beneficial for decreasing
inflammation and fostering neuroprotection,
protection of the nerves and even neurological recovery of spinal cord injury
if initiated early after the injury. (3)
Protecting and regenerating damaged, inflamed nerves is significant
in the treatment of chronic pain and Malverne back pain at
Malverne Health & Wellness. Malverne Health & Wellness is excited to share
that anti-inflammatory diets help
patients heal from disc herniations and other
spine related injuries.
