Share on Pinterest If you live with an autoimmune disease, you’re well aware that food can relieve pain or make it worse. That’s because of the role food plays in fighting or aiding inflammation. “Inflammation that’s continued beyond the healthy, acute healing phase has been implicated in almost every chronic health condition and a number of autoimmune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis,” says Michelle Simon, a licensed naturopathic doctor and president of the Institute for Natural Medicine. But the foods you put in your body can help. “Naturopathic medicine remedies, such as tonics and broths with natural, anti-inflammatory ingredients and immune-modulating agents, can help support the body’s natural healing process,” Simon adds. Here are five research-backed drinks that can help fight inflammation in your body. Share on Pinterest 1. Baking soda + water A recent study in the Journal of Immunologyfound drinking a tonic of baking soda and water may help reduce inflammation. But be careful with this one: Some studies suggest there may be harmful side effects to ingesting baking soda regularly over time, like liver damage and bone loss. Even this new study capped intake at two weeks. Use this tonic for short-term inflammation relief. But no longer than a month, Simon cautions. Baking soda benefits

after a meal twice a week, but for no more than four weeks. 2. Parsley + ginger green juice Studies have found that parsley’s active ingredient, carnosol, targets inflammation caused by rheumatoid arthritis, Simon explains. Ginger is a well-known anti-inflammatory. It prevents the production of inflammatory molecules like prostaglandin and leukotriene, as well pro-inflammatory cytokines. These are a type of protein found in cells, Simon says. Ginger benefits

3. Lemon + turmeric tonic “Numerous studies have shown that curcumin, the active ingredient found in turmeric, can help reduce the body’s inflammatory response and provide relief for joint pain and inflammation caused by rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis,” Simon says. In fact, a study analysis published earlier this year in Neurological Sciences found curcumin was a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant substance. It could help control proteins, enzymes, and cytokines in central nervous system-related disorders, including multiple sclerosis. A bonus of this tonic (which was modified from Minimalist Baker): The ginger and lemon will help aid in digestion, Simon adds. Curcumin benefits
