Did you know that there are many types of food products and items that can help to prevent various types of body pain if not consumed at all or had in small proportions? Well, that is the simple truth. Based on many different studies, there are reports suggesting that certain food products can cause irritation to muscles and fluids in the joints, certain items cause acid reflux and so on. So many patients are advised to stay away from such foods. There are some food items that can cause sensitization in the spinal cord leading to inflammation, thereby increasing pain in patients who are already suffering from severe problems in the spinal cord. Now, let us first take a look at what foods need to be taken if you want to avoid body pain.
First and foremost, if you have a tendency of putting on weight, then certainly you must avoid dairy products like eggs, milk and milk products like cheese, butter, ice-cream, yogurt etc. Many people are prone to develop problems like inflammation around the joints due to milk protein. Also, do not take fizzy drinks like colas, artificially flavored fruit drinks, fabricated drinks of any kind as all these have harmful chemicals that might trigger up your joint pains.

Even try to stay away from sugar and sugary food items like pastries, cakes and other confectionaries that are rich in sugar. The sugar increases insulin levels thereby increasing pain in joints and other prone areas. Stay away from red meats as these are very rich and can be a major reason for your fat increase. In order to lead a healthy life and that too without pain in any part of your body, always maintain a balanced diet, so that your body weight and mass are kept in control.

It is said that prevention is better than cure. Now, to get relief from severe pain it is always better to avoid certain fruits too like citric fruits be it oranges, lemons of all kinds or juices of these fruits. Many people have benefited by avoiding these food items. However, since there are different types of pains that people tend to develop, it is always better to consult a doctor or a physician before planning on a diet for joint pain patients. Since some of the above mentioned food items are best avoided even for people without any body pain or ache, this is just a generalized view.

In order to help decrease joint pain, there are recommendations to take in some nuts like walnuts that have the essential omega 3 fats which are very good for preventing joint pains as these are said to reduce inflammation and help to keep pain in control. Cod liver oil capsules or simply consuming the fish in variety of cooked dishes and recipes also helps. Try to increase your intake of fruits and vegetables and use olive oil in your diet plan. This can help too.
