Ginger-a great anti-inflammatory food that is also good to help digestion and get rid of nausea. You can get it dried with a little sugar on it and it’s called ‘candied ginger’ or you can get it pickled like you would find when you eat sushi or you can buy fresh ginger and cut it, boil it in water and drink like a tea.
Turmeric is an EXCELLENT herb for decreasing inflammation in the body and prevent cancer. It’s also called curcumin and can be found in capsule form, as a standardized extract or in curry. If you have just straight Turmeric in your spice cabinet, take 1/2 –1 tsp a day to help decrease inflammation in your body.
Bromelain, which is from pineapple, is an anti-inflammatory and also doubles as a digestive enzyme. You can eat pineapple to get the bromelain but it won’t be a strong as if you were to take it in capsule form.
Boswellya is also called frankincense and is a very strong anti-inflammatory for joint pain. It can be used for muscle pain too.
