Numerous foods possess anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties that can support joint health. Examples include fatty fish, fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy, nuts, seeds, and spices.
Fatty fish, including salmon, trout, sardines, and mackerel, are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids have been found to have potent anti-inflammatory properties.1 The Arthritis Foundation recommends a 3- to 6-ounce serving of fish two to four times a week.2
In a study of 176 people with the inflammatory autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis (RA), fish consumption two or more times a week was associated with slightly lower disease activity compared to never eating fish or eating it only once a month.3
RA is a type of inflammatory arthritis that occurs when the immune system malfunctions, resulting in inflammation (swelling) of the joint linings.4
Fermented foods are made through the action of bacteria and yeast, which changes the chemical structure of the food.5
