Stop judging people and let them be. Live and let live guys, please, it’s 2024,” the actress shared with her fans and followed through her instagram story.
What is an anti-inflammatory diet?
An anti-inflammatory diet focuses on foods that reduce inflammation in the body, which can help prevent or treat autoimmune diseases including heart disease, arthritis, and myositis. Muscle inflammation brought on by a condition known as myositis leads to weakness and pain. Inflammation is the body's natural response to illness or injury. Contrarily, chronic inflammation can be harmful and lead to pain and other health problems. An anti-inflammatory diet aims to lessen this chronic inflammation to support overall health.
Foods to eat and avoid in an anti-inflammatory diet
This diet is thought to benefit from fruits and vegetables that are high in antioxidants, which reduce inflammation, such as oranges, tomatoes, leafy greens, and berries. It also contains omega-3 fats, which are found in walnuts, flaxseeds, sardines, and salmon. This diet also includes whole grains. Fiber from foods like quinoa, brown rice, and oats promotes intestinal health and reduces inflammation.
