Avoid below food, if you are suffering from Chronic Pain

If you are suffering from chronic pain, here are the food items that you should absolutely avoid.

Sugar

Sugar may increase muscle and joint inflammation, so anything with a high sugar content should be avoided if possible. Any foods with refined sugar or added sugar should be avoided if at all possible. Foods that are high in carbohydrates, like bread and pasta, will turn to sugar in your body so they should be consumed only on a limited basis.

 Saturated fat, trans fats

There are “good” and “bad” fats.

Good fats come from foods like olive oil, avocados, and coconut oil should be consumed in moderation.

Bad fats, such as those found in red meat, processed foods (like bacon), cold cuts, fried foods, margarine, butter, and coffee creamer contribute to your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and obesity and will make your pain worse. 

Milk, cream, cheese, dairy products

Lactose is a major contributor to inflammation, and for many people, it may be difficult to digest, as is casein. 

Nightshade veggies

For some people, vegetables like eggplant, peppers, and potatoes can cause an inflammatory response. 

Alcohol

Alcoholic beverages contain a lot of sugar and carbohydrates, which can make chronic pain much worse. 

Processed foods

Most contain artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and all sorts of chemicals to stabilize and make them palatable, but these ingredients can easily throw your body’s function out of whack and lead to an increase in pain.
