Dr. Novick's use of humor, as well as current medical information, provides reassurance and alleviates the fears associated with procedures such as the dreaded colonoscopy!. Also a plus...the good doctor will donate 10 percent of royalties received to charities that will benefit people with GI diseases.
Vegetables and Legumes. Animal products aren't the only foods high in purines. Quickcare.org lists peas, spinach, asparagus, cauliflower, beans, lentils and mushrooms as foods high in purines that might cause joint pain. If you have gout, avoid these foods or speak to your doctor.
Flaxseed. Flaxseeds are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Eating foods high in omega-3 fatty acids can reduce inflammation, and therefore pain. Try grinding 1 Tbs. fresh and topping soups and salads with it. I hope these tips have been helpful for you, and that you can start eating your way to feeling better and better!
