10 Foods To Avoid With Arthritis
Arthritis Food To Avoid #9: Sugar
Many of our favorite foods are deliciously sweet. This sweetness is likely to have come from refined sugar, and this is problematic for us. We simply have not evolved to be able to process refined sugar in the quantities we eat it. Instead, it gets converted into fat and stored in the body. This is one of the leading causes of obesity in the world.
The problems don’t stop there for people with arthritis because refined sugar can also contribute to inflammation of the joints. To reduce the amount of sugar in your diet, try to avoid processed foods that tend to use it in high quantities. Also try to stop putting it in your tea and coffee, perhaps using alternatives such as honey instead.
