Gallery: Trying to Avoid Inflammation? Cut Out These 6 Foods!

Inflammation is fairly common. It’s your body’s reaction to an injury, damaged tissue or some sort of infection. Without the redness, swelling and sometimes heat and pain that comes from inflammation, your body would not be able to heal itself as quickly or thoroughly as it should.

Problem is, sometimes our diet is what causes inflammation in the body, and that causes unnecessary health issues. The good news is if you’re willing to switch up some of the things that you eat, you will have a lot less bloating and discomfort.

We’re not gonna lie to you. Some of your favorite foods are the ones that may be causing the most inflammation drama. But if you cut back on them, even a little bit, you should notice a dramatic difference. At least give it a try, OK?
