Remedies for Inflammation
Does anyone have some good, natural remedies for inflammation?
I have gout, swollen feet, and general puffiness.
I'm otherwise healthy, but I can't stand this. And it only came about in the past couple of years.
It would be nice If anyone here could provide me with any ideas for a daily dose of anti-inflammatory something or other.

I've heard that before R2, but not very many places sell cherry juice.
Where does she get it from?

Will a "One A Day" vitamin do the trick R4, versus taking separate pills for the four you listed?

You have to avoid inflammatory foods like sugar, fried foods, refined carbohydrates, etc.

If only you had what we in the West know colloquially call "a doctor."

Tart cherry vitamins sold on Amazon. It will reduce your levels of Uris acid and you will feel better within 24 hours. Always keep the, on hand for flare ups. BTDT. These really do work. They also sell them at vitamin stores and grocery stores.

Lots of water every day. Not mineral water, not sweetened water, just regular water. Seems counterintuitive, but all that swelling *will* improve with increased hydration. Avoid diuretics. Natural unsweetened nettle tea also works wonders and it's cheap if you don't want to gather it yourself.

Liposomal curcumin, luteolin, rutin, tart cherry extract or concentrate, palmitoylethanolamide, bromelain, nattokinaise, serratiopeptidase, boswellia Serratia, green tea extract, grape seed extract, high quality DHA/EPS fish or krill oil, black seed oil, berberine, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) from borage oil or evening primrose oil, N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), ginger or ginger extract, sulforaphane, and I'll toss in frequent (4x weekly) sauna use as a bonus. All of these are very good for inflammation

Raw cherries, 10 a day. If not available, cherry juice (usually labeled as tart cherry juice). It will relieve your gout in no time. Any brand will do but be sure it's real juice and not cocktail or whatever they label watered down juices. Most grocery stores carry it, also Whole Foods, Trader Joes, or any health store.

Thanks, R12.
You're right. I was avoiding water because I thought it would make me swell up more.
[quote] Avoid beer and red meat.
It's why I have gout in the first place.
I love beer and steak.

Those are all conditions of failing kidneys. Get a nephrologist.
And OP, do you have nice stuff?

R5 there is a One-A-Day 'allegedly' formulate for men. It's not expensive, < $8. Try it to see if it helps.

[quote]Berries, fatty fish, nuts, leafy greens, oatmeal, and olive oil can all be part of an anti-inflammatory diet. But it's best to include a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. What meat is anti-inflammatory? The Mediterranean diet includes anti-inflammatory omega-3 rich fatty fish

If you haven’t reduced your meat consumption that might help the gout.
You can sign up for Eating Well emails or check their website. They are constantly offering anti inflammatory tips and recipes.

Intake of vitamin C from supplements (about 400 mg to 500 mg daily) has been associated with reduced risk of gout in men, although higher doses do not appear to have added benefit.
Food and supplements that may reduce uric acid levels but may or may not reduce gout flare-ups:
Milk-based proteins, including whey protein, appear to reduce blood levels of uric acid by increasing the excretion of uric acid in the urine (Nabuco, Scand J Med Sci Sports 2019).
Eating fish low in purines (such as salmon, tuna and tilapia) as part of the diet may be helpful for people with gout. There is no evidence that taking fish oil supplements is helpful for gout (although they do not contain purines).
Drinking lemon juice equivalent to one or two fresh lemons daily for 6 weeks has been shown to reduce uric acid levels in people with elevated levels (Wang, Scientia Horticulturae 2017; Biernatkaluza, Ann Rheum Dis 2015). Lemon juice is thought to stimulate the release of calcium carbonate from the pancreas, which helps neutralize uric acid in the blood and urine. However, it is unclear if drinking lemon juice can prevent gout flares.

Seed oils high in Omega 6 are inflammatory particularly soybean oil and corn oil.
For example, Coffee Mate Coffee Creamer has soybean oil in it so I switched to the Natural Bliss Creamer which does not have oils.

I can recommend a variety of the systemic anti inflammatories supplements that I take but you need to figure out that is causing your particular issues before just throwing anti inflammatories at it

r34 Turmeric contains a compound called curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory properties. Some research suggests that curcumin may help reduce inflammation and pain associated with gout.
