How To Relieve Your Neck Pain & Back Pain With Diet & Supplementation Part 3
By Dr. Todd P. Sullivan
Today I am going to give you a few meal suggestions for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. Yes, you can even have dessert with an anti-inflammatory diet. You will have to make a choice regarding foods, will they be pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory foods? If you do not have symptoms and feel wonderful, you need to decide if you want the risk of regularly consuming pro-inflammatory foods that are known to cause significant health problems and diseases. If you do suffer from arthritis, back pain, neck pain, heart disease, and high blood pressure to name a few, you may wish to see if pro-inflammatory foods are a cause. Commit to discovering how your your health is influenced by the consumption of pro-inflammatory foods. Commit for at least 1 month to a "deflaming". Within a week to a month you are likely to feel a difference and know for sure how food affects your health. If you very inflamed you may need 2-3 months.
Meal Suggestions:
Breakfast:
1. Omega-3 eggs are your best choice. Scrambled with vegetables or made into an omelet. It is best to use organic virgin coconut oil for cooking eggs and potatoes, olive oil is the next best option.
