Anti-Inflammatory Juices

Do you suffer from inflammation somewhere in your body? If you have any health condition you’re dealing with, there’s inflammation present. But here’s another reason you want to know how to deal with inflammation.

Heart damage has recently emerged as yet another grim outcome in the COVID virus’s possible complications. A report from the early days of the epidemic described the extent of cardiac injury among 41 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in Wuhan, China: Five, or 12 percent, had signs of cardiovascular damage. The propensity of certain viruses to attack the heart muscle and cause viral myocarditis is well known. The most notorious viral offender has been the Coxsackie B virus.  The cardiac involvement in COVID-19 is yet another striking example of the widespread effects of inflammation on multiple organs and systems. Inflammation is a critical defense response during infection, but it has a dark side. Infections can set off a cascade of immune signals that affect various organs.(https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2020/04/covid-19s-consequences-for-the-heart/}

This said it’s highly important to eat an anti-inflammatory diet, especially now. (See my book The Anti-Inflammatory Diet.)

It is also critical if you should get sick, to go on an anti-inflammatory program.

Here are some super juices to help you fight inflammation and heal more quickly from any condition.

•    Carrot juice. Carrot juice provides anti-inflammatory benefits that were significant even when compared to anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, and Celebrex.

•    Parsley juice. Parsley contains luteolin—a flavonoid that has been shown to combine with highly reactive oxygen-containing molecules (oxygen radicals) and to help prevent oxygen-based damage to cells. This means a reduction in inflammation.•    

Juice more of these foods as well:

  • Asparagus
  • Radish
  • Turnips
  • Ginger
  • Turmeric
  • Leafy greens such as kale, chard, spinach, and watercress
  • Bok choy
  • Fennel
  • Celery (drink 8 to 16 ounces a day) It helps you sleep well, which is very important in your recovery.
  • Beets
  • Broccoli; juice the stems and steam the florets
  • Blueberries

This is what makes this recipe so healing:

  • Cucumber: analgesic (painkiller); an antioxidant that prevents the synthesis of the inflammatory compound prostaglandin
  • Broccoli: anti-carcinogenic, prevents gastric mucosal damage (suggesting potential histamine-lowering action)
  • Ginger: as effective as an H2 receptor antagonist prescription drug
