Chronic uncontrolled inflammation contributes to North America&#8217;s leading chronic degenerative conditions like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, depression, and even Alzheimer&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, it definitely plays a roll in neck pain and back pain.<\/p>\n<h2>So, here is what you need to avoid or at least minimize:<\/h2>\n<p>* refined carbohydrates, such as white bread and pastries<\/p>\n<p>* French fries and other fried foods<\/p>\n<p>* soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages<\/p>\n<p>* red meat (burgers, steaks) and processed meat (hot dogs, sausage)<\/p>\n<p>* margarine, shortening, and lard<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9302\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9302\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9302\" src=\"http:\/\/torontoneckandbackpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/jonathan-borba-8l8Yl2ruUsg-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Fast Food can be inflammatory for your body.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9302\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eating certain foods can increase the inflammation in your body, leading to chronic illness and disease, but also making it hard to recover from neck pain and back pain.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>And here is what you want to add to help with inflammation:<\/h2>\n<p>* olive oil<\/p>\n<p>* green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, kale, and collards<\/p>\n<p>* nuts like almonds and walnuts<\/p>\n<p>* fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna, and sardines<\/p>\n<p>* fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, cherries, and oranges<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9303\" src=\"http:\/\/torontoneckandbackpain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/jorge-franganillo-QUoMZNWcCMI-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Fruits and Vegetables help your body fight pain!\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1536\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Some inflammation is good. It protects us from foreign invaders and helps repair injuries to the body. However, too much is detrimental.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the North American lifestyle is prone to support excessive inflammation. But, it doesn&#8217;t take much to turn it around!<\/p>\n<p>So, enjoy those Canadian blueberries and go nuts with those almonds and walnuts.<\/p>\n<p>I hear walnuts are even good for the brain!
