Lifestyle Tips To Improve Pain and Inflammation

How Inflammation Affects Your Body.

The inflammatory process is extremely complex. Fortunately, the solutions to improving inflammation aren’t.

Reducing pain and inflammation naturally is simple with the right strategy.

Maintaining a healthy weight, eating a healthy balanced diet, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly are all proven ways to effectively reduce pain and inflammation naturally.

Lifestyle Factors Increase OR Decrease Inflammation

Your diet and daily exercise routine play a huge role in managing chronic inflammation (longer term) because each influences your body fat, your weight, sleep patterns, as well as various chemical and metabolic factors in your body.

All of these things not only change inflammation, but your health in general. It does require a multi-pronged approach that may vary somewhat from person to person.

This is something we work with to improve in our patients every day at Hagebusch Chiropractic Texarkana.

Foods high in antioxidants (for example berries, turmeric, and non-starchy green vegetables) can lower your overall inflammation and provide you with more energy.

Daily exercise can help protect you against conditions such as heart disease, obesity, and so many other chronic health conditions that are associated with chronic inflammation.

Did you know:

• Antioxidants known as polyphenols can help lower inflammation.
• Even 20 minutes of daily exercise can have an anti-inflammatory effect. *This varies from person to person. Some may need to slowly progress over time.
• Proper sleep patterns encourage recovery while lowering stress and inflammation.
