10 Foods To Avoid With Arthritis
Arthritis Food To Avoid #5: Corn Oil
Oils are very common in cooking, particularly in fast foods and snacks. Oils extracted from animal products are quite unhealthy for us so we tend to look for vegetable-based alternatives instead. These oils generally have fewer calories than animal-based oils and contain fats that are generally less harmful to us.
Vegetable oils are not without their drawbacks, though. Corn oil, in particular, is high in omega 6 fatty acids and these are known to contribute toward inflammation. Other oils that have been extracted from seeds should also be avoided where possible. Fish oils, however, are known to be able to reduce inflammation.
