Anti-Inflammatory foods

Whereas fatty meats and sugars may promote inflammation in the body, there are so many wonderful foods that can help reduce inflammation in the body.
I don't see anything wrong with anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) such as advil, alieve or ibuprofen, but there are lots of wonderful properties in food, not to mention the ability to act as anti-inflammatories.

Here are some must-have's for your diet to support your daily training/fitness routine:
(Disclaimer: some foods may not have extensive research to confirm anti inflammatory effects, however, you can't go wrong with the nutrients that the following foods will provide to your body)

-Celery - did you know celery is a good source of potassium!?
-Devil's claw - found in tissue rejuvinator by Hammer Nutrition
-Ginger - buy it raw at the grocery store and shred in carrot slaw or in smoothies
-Oregano - a great antioxidant
-Red pepper, cayenne pepper - may help relieve pain
-Pineapple - containing bromelain, helps prevent inflammation
-Rosemary - contains anti-inflammatory substances - earnosol, oleanolic acid, rosmarini acid and ursolic acid
-Sesame Seeds - contains essential fatty acids, calcium, magnesium and copper.
-Tumeric - may be as effective as cortisone in some models of inflammation
-Omega-3 fatty acids - fatty fish, leafy greens, walnuts, pumpkin seeds and flax oil (or ground flax seeds)
-Fiber - whole grains, veggies and fruits
-Vitamin C - may help inhibit an enzyme in the body that is responsible for inflammation, choose strawberries ($1.98 at Wal-mart right now or 3 for $5 at Publix!), kiwi, tomatoes, citrus fruits, peppers and mango

Rather than waiting til you feel sore, tight or inflammed, focus on the daily diet so that you are taking preventative measures to maintain a consistent exercise routine, rather than not taking pride in your choice of foods that fuel your workouts and your lifestyle.
