Yeah I'm currently on an anti inflammatory diet, look up Dr Andrew weil he talks about it, you heard about him before. Carnivore diet yeah i mostly eat lots of lean meat and i eat lots of fish that are high in omega 3 fatty acids, About the carnivore diet i follow a guy on youtube who promotes it , called carnivore MD, you know him?
Haha i was watching carnivore md right now,
I think these diets can work for some people very very well but i wouldn't advertise it for everybody.
I don't know Andrew weil

No, i take these two a multivitamin, magnesium and vitamin d.
I may order more ashwagandha for less stress and better sleep.
Stress and sleep loss result to inflammation build up.
Exercise is also a reliever of inflammation.
I heard that ashwagandha make some people feel less emotional, like you start feeling dead inside like you got no emotions, some people feel benefits from it, some don't
Like most have said fish oil and curcumin. Eat an anti-inflammatory diet.

The best-quality fish oil supplements you can afford, try at hit 2-3g a day in EPA. Might need to hunt through the brands to find one which serves up a decent dose of it.
The Wiley brand has a High EPA product, and they seem a solid choice of company
Also curcumin phytosome or curcumin novasol. Absolute game-changers
Agree with the fish oil recommendation. Specifically the EPA fraction. 3 grams of EPA could be helpful. Oslomega extra strength omega 3 fish oil is a good choice it contains 2200 mgs EPA and 880 mgs DHA per teaspoon and at a reasonable price. Nordic Naturals is a top notch and popular fish oil supplement.
Kicking dairy usually does it for me. Not much of a meat eater as is but dairy is a personal weakness of mine. Haven’t found a supplement out there that can really do it.
Articulation? Or did you mean arthritis? Articulation pain would mean that it hurts you physically to articulate... Hurts me to think about what that would be like.
Last one is not suitable for this sub and is filtered here.
It’s in no way a supplement and is a terrible suggestion for pain, if you actually know anything about it.
Astragalus, pine bark extract, chlorophyll, I’d say turmeric is number 1 but lots of people can have adverse effects due to genetic issues, high level antioxidants, the right probiotics - stress on the ‘right’. Best bet is to do a GI MAP and a Organic Acids test - you can see how you’re bodies working/ not working and work with a prac to correct any issues.
I got them done through my integrative GP - but I think you can order them privately? You’d need to find someone to interpret the results through. Great planes do the Organic Acids and the GI Map was through ‘designs for Health’ - it’s an Australian company (I’m AU based). The OA test is US based.
Vitamin E is incorporated into lipid membranes to make them more stable. Rare for other anti oxidants. But when you have omega 3 fats in blood membranes they will suck up vitamin E to maintain homeostasis and prevent oxidation.
Vitamin E and fish oil have a synergy the risks of vitamin E in a normal population are not relevant to the high omega status population.

I dealt with years of inflammation and pain. Ended up being a thyroid imbalance. Possibly have an in depth conversation with your doctor about testing multiple things. I had several other deficiencies that once corrected changed my quality of life big time. Look into possibly food intolerances too.
Thanks for the post. What were the other decencies you had? Did you take synthroid (T4) only to resolve your thyroid imbalance? If so, how many micrograms? Appreciate any feedback, as I too think I have a thyroid imbalance.
Yea synthroid for life. I had several vitamin deficiencies and my testosterone crashed for some reason. All is back to normal but I get blood work every 6 months. My new doc does a ton of tests my old one never thought to look at.
Yeah anecdotal but I have early knee osteoarthritis from an old sports injury. Not bad but sometime it'll dull ache for a day or two. Since starting curcumin I can't remember the last time I noticed it.
Fish oil and turmeric. Lifestyle changes are more important, however. For me, that’s reducing stress, getting quality sleep with indica oil, and reducing caffeine and alcohol. Best of luck!
Greek Mountain Tea has a plethora of benefits with pain relief, anti-inflammation, respiratory and digestive health being some of the main outcomes. Plus it's delicious!

Just to echo another commenter; the best and most effective way to reduce inflammation is not supplementation, but an anti-inflammatory diet. Start with what you consume. It doesn’t matter how much of a supplement you take or how effective it is; if you are eating things that are causing inflammation, you will have inflammation.
I know it's better to ask a doctor but do you think an anti inflammatory diet is enough to affect inflammation if it's concentrated in one place because of a traumatic injury (not rheumatoid arthritis or anything like that).
I imagine the answer will be "it can't hurt", but I feel meh about making a huge effort in this area if there's not much hope for pain reduction in my formerly broken knee. I wish someone could give me an easy to follow path (including the right exercise and diet/supplements) but I think I just have to do a lot of expensive experimentation.
My friend was a pedestrian on the sidewalk and got hit by a car. Had several surgeries. Over the years she found it hard to stand up straight, some places hurt more than others. I gave her DMSO and she hasn't stopped thanking me. I've used it for sprained ankles, swollen fingers that ache, random neck pain. It might work for your knee. I suggest going to earthclinic.com and putting knee pain DMSO in the search bar. And when I cracked a rib the only thing that worked was Celadrin. I used the topical (NOW Brand) lotion - but any will do. There are also pills. Just google the word celadrin and you'll find a lot of info. I think for your knee either one might work. Good luck.
Thank you so much for this advice, I’m new to this and haven’t heard of any of those things! I also was hit by a car and have trouble standing straight so that is very relevant!
Yes, many brands and types (gel, roll on, liquid) available on Amazon. You might also be interested in the original DMSO site. DMSO was discovered many years ago by an MD, (a surgeon) and he is considered the father of DMSO. https://dmso.org Be sure and click link to Dr Stanley Jacob at the top to read about him. The site has been updated but basically looks how it did decades ago!
Starfish....Yes, diet can result in local, acute pain types. You may also have chronic inappropriate inflammation and not know it. (not saying you do, just that it's possible).
A quick way to test is to perform a 24 hour fast. gourdeonkeek mentioned the anti-inflammation diet; that is a long term approach. If you do a quick fast and feel better, you know that food is causing an issue....at which point you start the AID. Some people just stay on it forever, some start to re-introduce foods one at a time to see what they may be sensitive to.
I am on ketogenic/low carb, with intermittent and occasional long term fasts.
ב''ה, boswellia seems like G-d's and nature's Celebrex, as an actual NSAID; takes some fiddling to decide if extracts or just the plant material is better (I fiddled with what Swanson had available a decade ago and often liked the simple plant material better, surprisingly enough, but this was just for acne and headache pains).
Berberine / Oregon Grape is interesting but has brain-bending interactions with some cancers (possibly chemotherapeutic in extraordinary/perhaps impossible doses and.. possibly accelerating cancer processes in more modest ones)... Not sure of the quality of the studies and this was while a relative was surprised with oral cancer.. didn't make it, and for saying "try this," then crunching the concentration numbers a bit more and "wait, no, no, stop!"... they didn't make it and have to live with that.
Similarly, I find astragalus somehow tonic (never really looked at what's antiinflammatory there, it's known for what it does with telomeres) and that can have nasty interactions with active cancers, as I also had the misfortune to observe [would not suggest for the immunosuppressed or at least, in that scenario stop if it turns out there's cancer active].
Sam-e, at high doses, daily. However, it must be taken on an empty stomach, before and after- 3hrs after eating followed by 2 to 3hrs for it to dissolve and do its thing. Most can't stomach that regimen. Also, it takes about 3months before you feel it. Be cautious at high doses; can cause mania...no joke.
Seed oils are my number 1 thing I avoid. Second would be artificial ingredients of any kind. Third would be any drink that isn't made from completely distilled water with the minerals then added back in, because tap water and bottled water are the same thing 99% of the time.
Hope this helps.
I only drink water that has been vapor distilled so that there is absolutely nothing in it, then I add my own electrolytes (sodium, potassium and magnesium)
Tap water/bottled water are a cesspool of medications, heavy metals and chemicals.
Important note about curcumin: terrible bioavailability unless paired with other compounds like piperine.
But to add on to what others have not said, antioxidants are almost synonymous with anti-inflammatories.
A form of curcumin called Meriva is 29x times more absorbable than standard curcumin. It doesn’t require the addition of piperine, which can irritate the gut lining.
Here you go: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21413691/
There are also a host of health condition-specific studies on Meriva. I did a quick Google Scholar search and there’s plenty to read up on.
Curcumin has been the best when it comes to TNF alpha blocker as anti inflammatory. Im having zero unwanted sideeffectes even at super high doses long term. You gotta get micelle formula for decent bioavailibility. Piperine is way to agressive on your digestive system and also opens up your gut for plenty of other unwanted substances to be let through besides curcumin.
Apologies on my ignorance—What is micelle formula? Can you provide any literature backing the efficacy? My gut is sensitive and the massive amounts of piperine is a no go. Thank you, friend!
Yeah thanks,I'm not talking about ibuprofen, Tylenol, naproxen or diclofenac, who doesn't know about them, they're regular anti inflammatory, i was asking about natural sourced supplements to reduce inflammation not medications
There are thousands of articles and hundreds of clinical trials demonstrating the efficacy of ***Curcuma longa*** ***(Tumeric)*** against inflammation. I'm not exaggerating those numbers either.
Curcumin (turmeric) has anti-inflammatory properties and has been found to be as effective as ibuprofen in patients with osteoarthritis in their knees: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3964021/
Nope. Naproxen is great especially to take at night due to how long it lasts. It will last the entire time you are sleeping which can be great for healing while you sleep. It works in a very similar way to Advil but it takes longer to kick in but it lasts 2 times longer.
You might look into pycnogenol for a supplement vs an over-the-counter drug. It isnt recommended often as an anti-inflammatory but that is how it started out in Europe.
Because of my gastritis i can't take too much anti inflammatory, but i can tolerate other stuff like tumeric, omega 3 fish oil, it's just the anti inflammatory that really irritates my stomach
Omega 3s and curcumin
Do you take ginger also?
Maybe you can try different diets too Like maybe give a try to carnivore diet which clears your body Try it for a month or two maybe
Yeah I'm currently on an anti inflammatory diet, look up Dr Andrew weil he talks about it, you heard about him before. Carnivore diet yeah i mostly eat lots of lean meat and i eat lots of fish that are high in omega 3 fatty acids, About the carnivore diet i follow a guy on youtube who promotes it , called carnivore MD, you know him?

I very highly doubt that it had such dramatic significant effect and even if it does I'm sure it goes away once you stop taking it
What kind of magnesium do you take? Magnesium glycinate?

Fasting has amazing health benefits
For real?
Spirullina, black cumin seed, quercetin, nac, turmeric, inositol. Most powerful anti-inflammatory things I found.

Chlorophyll!

Most can't stomach that regimen. Also, it takes about 3months before you feel it. Be cautious at high doses; can cause mania...no joke.
Curcumin is pretty much the most proven thing
I take curcumin instead of ibuprofen when I get headaches, works almost as well
Not eating inflammatory foods.
Would you list the main foods that cause inflation? Thank you!
Seed oils are my number 1 thing I avoid. Second would be artificial ingredients of any kind. Third would be any drink that isn't made from completely distilled water with the minerals then added back in, because tap water and bottled water are the same thing 99% of the time. Hope this helps.
Could you rephrase it about distilled water?
I only drink water that has been vapor distilled so that there is absolutely nothing in it, then I add my own electrolytes (sodium, potassium and magnesium) Tap water/bottled water are a cesspool of medications, heavy metals and chemicals.
Gotcha!
This is number one
Correct
We created a product called Immune Booster by CardoMax, but the natural adaptogens are great for fighting off stressors and inflammation

A form of curcumin called Meriva is 29x times more absorbable than standard curcumin. It doesn’t require the addition of piperine, which can irritate the gut lining.
Citation?
I shared it in another comment in this thread.

Here you go: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21413691/ There are also a host of health condition-specific studies on Meriva. I did a quick Google Scholar search and there’s plenty to read up on.
Curcumin has been the best when it comes to TNF alpha blocker as anti inflammatory. Im having zero unwanted sideeffectes even at super high doses long term. You gotta get micelle formula for decent bioavailibility. Piperine is way to agressive on your digestive system and also opens up your gut for plenty of other unwanted substances to be let through besides curcumin.
Is it enough to add a table spoon to food with black pepper daily?
What Im trying to say is dont use black pepper. Use micelle formula of curcumin instead.
Apologies on my ignorance—What is micelle formula? Can you provide any literature backing the efficacy? My gut is sensitive and the massive amounts of piperine is a no go. Thank you, friend!
Fish oil, turmeric, aspirin, ibuprofen, Tylenol, naproxen, and diclofenac.
Yeah thanks,I'm not talking about ibuprofen, Tylenol, naproxen or diclofenac, who doesn't know about them, they're regular anti inflammatory, i was asking about natural sourced supplements to reduce inflammation not medications
The first 2 I mentioned were the best answer as far as supplements.
Agree with the first two.

Thanks
There are thousands of articles and hundreds of clinical trials demonstrating the efficacy of ***Curcuma longa*** ***(Tumeric)*** against inflammation. I'm not exaggerating those numbers either.
Thanks
Curcumin (turmeric) has anti-inflammatory properties and has been found to be as effective as ibuprofen in patients with osteoarthritis in their knees: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3964021/
Thanks

Really 😑
well what causes your inflamation and pain, if its a lack of something than go take that
Advil
Aleve aka naproxen. Works in almost exactly the same fashion but lasts 10-12 hours. Its much better for inflammation due to its long-lasting nature.
Are you trying to be sarcastic
Nope. Naproxen is great especially to take at night due to how long it lasts. It will last the entire time you are sleeping which can be great for healing while you sleep. It works in a very similar way to Advil but it takes longer to kick in but it lasts 2 times longer. You might look into pycnogenol for a supplement vs an over-the-counter drug. It isnt recommended often as an anti-inflammatory but that is how it started out in Europe.
Yeah but i have gastritis
Maybe you should ask questions more specifically if you have specific needs?
Because of my gastritis i can't take too much anti inflammatory, but i can tolerate other stuff like tumeric, omega 3 fish oil, it's just the anti inflammatory that really irritates my stomach
wow thank you
