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)
