My favorite anti-inflammatory food is BLUEBERRIES I prescribe one cup of frozen blueberries daily to all my patients with inflammation, heart disease, or diabetes. Most people are happy to add such a delicious food in to their diet, but occasionally I will have a patient balk at the cost of eating so many blueberries each month.
If you are already taking medications or other supplements, you are clearly paying quite a bit for your health already so adding a superfood in like blueberries is well worth the $30 a month. You could buy a bottle of some herbal product for that same price, or you could just enjoy eating blueberries.
- Blueberries are highly anti-inflammatory and their proanthocyanin behavior is fundamentally protective to our cardiovascular system.
- In my opinion there is not a more delicious, advantageous way to improve your health than by eating a cup of frozen blueberries a day.
- I like to enjoy them as an evening snack, and let them sit out and thaw about 20 minutes before eating.
- You can also add them to smoothies or your morning cereal.
- Cooking them does not destroy their important pigments, and the freezing process actually makes these proanthocyanins more bioavailable for absorption. A rare exception to the rule that fresh is best!
