Millions of people suffer from back pain, but most do not even know what causes the disease.
Basically, they blame bad posture, injuries, and stress. Most people don’t even think about the role that nutrition plays in this.
American nutritionists have found out which foods can cause inflammation, and the results of the study were published by Only My Health.
Sweets
Foods such as sugary cereals, baked goods, sugary sodas, and other foods increase inflammation markers and can also cause pain to worsen.
Here we should also remind ourselves about refined carbohydrates and artificial sweeteners.
Processed meat
Sausages, hot dogs, bacon and other similar products contain a lot of saturated fats and preservatives.
It is not necessary to switch to plant foods. You can eat lean poultry or fish.
Fried food
Fried foods and fast foods contain trans fats, which can worsen the inflammatory response.
Dairy products
In this case, the threat is posed by fatty dairy products. But first of all, this applies to people with individual milk intolerance.
Alcohol
Leads to dehydration and muscle spasms, and increases sensitivity to pain.
Caffeine
The reason for this is the diuretic effect that drinks containing caffeine have.
