The S.A.D. is sad for many reasons.
Inflammation. Obesity. Pain. S.A.D. being the Standard American Diet may be fixed
by paying attention to and exchanging from a
S.A.D. diet to a more anti-inflammatory diet. Back pain may benefit as
well from an anti-inflammatory diet, so
Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC encourages an anti-inflammatory diet for
pain relief and even neurological recovery when spinal nerves are
in pain and are inflamed which results in La Grande back pain and neck pain,
etc. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC oversees the relief of back pain
and neck pain with a complete chiropractic
treatment plan of spinal manipulation, Cox® Technic, exercise and nutritional
diet. La Grande chiropractic patients team up with
Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC for the relief of La Grande chronic pain, back pain,
and neck pain.
La Grande 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, too. Poor diet many times adds to obesity, influences
the immune system unfavorably, and delays
recovery from inflammatory injury. An anti-inflammatory diet in place of a pharmacological intervention after injury may well assist
these issues when replaced
for the Standard American Diet. (1) La Grande chiropractic patients
with chronic pain often discover some relief with healthier
eating choices.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FOODS
A review of 172 studies advises
that effects of certain foods are comparable
to drug management therapy for chronic pain. Natural compounds like the
phenolic compounds in extra virgin olive oil are such.
Carbohydrates with low glycemic indices consumed 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 interspersed weekly. It’s
not bad to have sweets occasionally! (2) That
makes it easier to achieve
a diet change! Eating like this helps manage
inflammation/oxidative stress that results in pain relief.
DIET CHANGE FOR NEUROLOGICAL REPAIR
A well-known diet referred
to as the ketogenic diet may be beneficial for reducing
inflammation and promoting neuroprotection,
protection of the nerves and even neurological recovery of spinal cord injury
if started early after the injury. (3)
Protecting and regenerating damaged, inflamed nerves is significant
in the care of chronic pain and La Grande back pain at
Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is eager to disclose
that anti-inflammatory diets foster patients’ healing from disc herniations and other
