Indian Diet Plan for Arthritis Relief: What to Eat and Avoid

 


Living with arthritis doesn’t mean you have to live in pain. Indian food—when chosen wisely—can ease symptoms and support joint health naturally.

🧩 What Is Arthritis?

Arthritis causes joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. The two common types are:

  • Osteoarthritis (OA): Cartilage breakdown

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): Autoimmune inflammation

🥗 Why Indian Food Works

Indian meals are full of healing spices and nutrient-rich ingredients like turmeric, leafy greens, and whole grains. With the right combinations, they can significantly reduce joint inflammation.

✅ What to Eat

  • Turmeric (Haldi): Anti-inflammatory curcumin

  • Ginger (Adrak): Natural pain reliever

  • Flax seeds, walnuts: Omega-3s reduce joint swelling

  • Ragi, sesame, curd, paneer: Strengthen bones

  • Spinach, methi, moringa: High in antioxidants

  • Amla, papaya, guava: Vitamin C rich fruits

  • Jowar, bajra, oats: Healthy grains for weight control

  • Toned milk, paneer: Boosts calcium without excess fat

❌ Foods to Avoid

  • Deep-fried snacks (pakoras, pooris)

  • Sugary treats (biscuits, mithai, soft drinks)

  • Maida (refined flour) products

  • Processed and packaged meals

  • Red meat (causes inflammation)

  • Salty foods (papads, pickles)
