In this video, P. James Dyck, M.D., discusses the new research Mayo Clinic has done regarding postsurgical inflammatory neuropathy. This new study found that nerve inflammation may cause the pain, numbness and weakness following surgical procedures that is known as post-surgical neuropathy. The development of postsurgical neuropathies is typically attributed to compression or stretching of nerves during surgery. This new research shows that, in some cases, the neuropathy is actually caused by the immune system attacking the nerves and is potentially treatable with immunosuppressive drugs. The study was published in this month’s issue of BRAIN.
Researchers find a popular arthritis drug does not increase heart-related complications, instead the study raises questions about two of the most commonly used prescription anti-inflammatory drugs in the world.

The above video shows how anti inflammatory foods can improve your health. This strategy can be useful to minimize potential ignition due to stress, training, genetics and various lifestyle factors that could impact on your health and your performance.
Increase fiber intake that is found in fresh fruits and vegetables, especially berries and whole grains, is also a good way to increase the amount of anti-inflammatory foods in your diet. Try to eat colorful fruits, berries, fruits and orange and yellow vegetables, and dark green leafy vegetables.
Another tip: Add anti-inflammatory spices like ginger and turmeric in your diet. Green tea and dark chocolate are also great options.
Inflammation is at the root cause of many chronic health issues. Following an Anti-Inflammatory Diet is a great way to heal inflammation and also a great place to start if you are confused about what kind of diet is right for you.

Joint pain and stiffness are common complaints doctors hear from patients. Personal health advocate Carrie Bloemers says, arthritis is a common problem that can lead to joint swelling and pain. “It’s really uncomfortable and it’s something that people experience and live with daily.”
There are natural things patients can do to minimize the pain without taking medication. “The foods we eat can increase the inflammation levels in our body so therefore, if we are able to follow an anti-inflammatory diet with antioxidants we can help control some of the symptoms of arthritis and inflammation,” said Bloemers.
Antioxidants lower levels of inflammation throughout the body. “The goal is to minimize the overall symptoms so the aches and the pains from arthritis so they may have a lower dependency on some of the medications they are taking,” said Bloemers.
Foods high in antioxidants like blueberries, grapes, and greens, can help with joint inflammation. But processed foods and foods in high fat and sugar can keep your joints inflamed. “Not only do we need our blues and our purples, we need red, yellow, orange, and green nutrients so plant based materials every day too,” said Bloemers.
A regular healthy diet can help with day to day pain and swelling. “Eating blueberries one time isn’t going to make your knee feel better. It’s your habits of including a healthy diet high in antioxidants, low in inflammatory foods, like high fatty processed meats or high sugar foods that over time are going to help lower the inflammation in your body,” said Bloemers.
In addition to fruits and vegetables, health experts also recommend patients maintain an active lifestyle to prevent joint stiffness.
