The S.A.D. is sad for many reasons.
Inflammation. Obesity. Pain. S.A.D. being the Standard American Diet may be remedied
by paying attention to and changing to a more anti-inflammatory diet. Back pain may improve as a result of an anti-inflammatory diet, so
New Roads Chiropractic Center encourages an anti-inflammatory diet for
pain relief and even neurological recovery when spinal nerves hurt and are inflamed which causes New Roads back pain and neck pain,
etc. New Roads Chiropractic Center manages and relieves back pain
and neck pain with a comprehensive chiropractic
treatment plan of spinal manipulation, Cox® Technic, exercise and nutritional
diet. New Roads chiropractic patients team up with
New Roads Chiropractic Center for the relief of New Roads chronic pain, back pain,
and neck pain.
New Roads DIET AND INFLAMMATION
Diet may play a role in obesity and chronic
pain, not just in weight-bearing joints but other parts of the body as
well. Poor diet many times adds to obesity, influences
the immune system adversely, and prolongs
recovery from inflammatory injury. An anti-inflammatory diet instead of a pharmacological intervention after injury may well assist
these concerns when replaced
for the Standard American Diet. (1) New Roads chiropractic patients
with chronic pain often find some relief with wiser
eating selections.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FOODS
A review of 172 studies suggests
that effects of specific foods are akin
to drug management therapy for chronic pain. Natural compounds like the
phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oil are examples.
Carbohydrates with low glycemic indices eaten three
times a day alongside fruits and vegetables, yogurt, red wine
are good daily. Fish and legumes, white meat, eggs and
cheese and red meats can be mixed in weekly. It’s
not bad to have sweets on occasion! (2) Such a treat
makes it simpler to achieve
a diet change! Eating this way helps manage
inflammation/oxidative stress that brings about pain relief.
DIET CHANGE FOR NEUROLOGICAL REPAIR
A popular diet referred
to as the ketogenic diet may have a good effect on decreasing
inflammation and promoting neuroprotection,
protection of the nerves and even neurological recovery of spinal cord injury
if initiated early after the injury. (3)
Protecting and regenerating damaged, inflamed nerves is important
in the care of chronic pain and New Roads back pain at
New Roads Chiropractic Center. New Roads Chiropractic Center is eager to share
that anti-inflammatory diets foster patients’ healing from disc herniations and other
spine related injuries.
