Are you suffering from painful arthritis and you feel that there’s no way out from the frustration and the pain your ailment brings? Gain hope from knowing that today, countless people are looking for healthier and alternative forms of treatment, and have succeeded in finding an ultimate cure. Ayurveda, “the science of life,” has been practiced with considerable success for years and encourages nothing but the healthiest nutrition. Only the most holistic approach to treatment can help alleviate arthritis pain and slow the progression of this debilitating disease.
If you want to jump into the healthy bandwagon and free yourself from painful arthritis, here are some yummy tips to help you get started – by eating salads!
1. You can start with the lettuce, as long as you use anything but iceberg, a nutritionally worthless hybrid created in the early 20th century to keep lettuce from spoiling when it was shipped to market. Then you can layer the ingredients by varying textures and colors. Purple cabbage shredded thinly adds color and crunch; celery ramps up the moisture level; sliced or shredded carrots, diced and fennel bulb, bok choy, baby spinach and mesclun greens all make fine additions.
2.You can add special ingredients to your salads such as olives or artichoke hearts, but only in moderation.
3.Be sure to check the caloric values first. As long as most of the ingredients are on the list of recommended foods, you should be alright. And with the abundance of salad bars and make your own stations in supermarkets, delis, and restaurants today, you can make salads a part of your daily diet without any preparation. Just avoid the non-veggie add-ons like cheese cubes, bacon bits, biscuits and croutons.
4.In colder weather, summer salads may feel less refreshing but you can make a warm salad from sliced roasted potatoes, cooked lentils, and a wide variety of steamed veggies, from beets to asparagus tips. To increase the protein count in any of these salads, just top them with grilled chicken breast, turkey, salmon, tuna or shrimp.
Whatever you prepare, you can save time by making a large salad and refrigerating what you don’t eat in an airtight container. Generally, it will keep longer if you don’t add dressing before serving. Yes, you can fight the symptoms of painful arthritis just by making a few, healthy choices!
