My SED Rate Has Made A Major Jump In 3 Months. I’m Getting Mixed Info On Anti-inflammatory & Flammatory Foods. I’m Confused At This Point.
Always heard to not eat nightshade vegetables. Now the say differently. What do you do on vegetables and fruits?
I went on a liquid diet and slowly started to reintroduce food one at a time for weeks to see what was affecting my inflammation. I found the following to cause severe inflammation: Tomatoes, potatoes, bell pepper, nuts especially peanuts, anything processed, all meat other than chicken and alcohol.
It has been quite the journey but it have been able to reduce flares significantly.
It can be confusing to navigate dietary advice, especially with mixed information. Here are some key points from the knowledge base about anti-inflammatory foods that may help:

The ESR or sed rate is a marker indicating inflammation in the body from RA or infection not food. I am a clinical lab technologist and have run many in over 35 years in the clinical lab.
It means your RA is more active than it was. There is nothing to eat or drink to make it go down.
