If your old injuries have started to pain again, and there's swelling or discomfort in the knees, feet, or back, it could be due to high
uric acid, inflammation, or even a mix of both.
Here are some of the foods that you need to avoid for high uric acid:
- High-purine foods: Avoid excess dals and pulses. You can consume them in moderation
- Avoid packaged and processed foods.
- Limit alcohol. If having beer, avoid it completely.
- Limit
sugar and sweets, especially bakery items, maida and biscuits.
- Avoid cold drinks, excessive tea, coffee, or sugary drinks.
- Avoid mushrooms (they can increase uric acid if eaten regularly in large amounts).
Foods to include to reduce inflammation:
- Include
vitamin C rich foods like oranges, berries, and amlas to reduce inflammation.
- Include moong dal and green gram sprouts.
- Flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts also help to reduce inflammation
- Haldi milk at night as it helps reduce inflammation and joint pain.
