[size=3Pineapple everyday keeps arthritis at bay! [/size][/color] Arthritis is the inflammation of one or more joints. It is characterised by pain and stiffness, swelling, deformity, and/or a diminished range of movement. *Eat plenty of fresh pineapple, regularly - pineapple contains the enzyme Bromelain which has anti-inflammatory properties. *Avoid peppers, aubergine, potatoes and tomatoes - these "nightshade veggies" may cause some pain and discomfort. *Increase your intake of onions, garlic & eggs - these foods contain sulphur which aids in proper calcium absorption. *Consume plenty of fresh green leafy vegetables, brown rice and oily fish such as mackerel, herring and salmon. *Reduce the amounts of fat in your diet - "bad fat" - and avoid anything with sugar in it. *Monitor your weight.
