Sugary foods. Sugar is acidic to the body. Avoid refined sugars and artificial sweeteners, which cause inflammation. Instead, opt for honey and maple syrup, which are full of beneficial minerals, or eat whole fruits, which balance the sugar intake with fiber.
Not to be confused with Pediatrist. A podiatrist, also known as a podiatric physician (/poÊËdaÉªÉtrÉªst/ poh-dye-eh-trist) or foot doctor, is a medical professional, a physician devoted to the study and medical treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle and lower extremity.
Orthopaedist: An orthopaedic surgeon, a doctor who corrects congenital or functional abnormalities of the bones with surgery, casting, and bracing. Orthopaedists also treat injuries to the bones. Sometimes spelled orthopedist. The spelling of orthopedist with an e is quite common today but it is incorrect because it relates the term to the foot since in Latin pedis is the foot. Orthopaedist with an ae is the correct spelling.
