Diet advice

An anti-inflammatory grocery list you can cook on a weeknight

Colorful plants, fatty fish, beans, and olive oil are the backbone of eating patterns studied for joint comfort. Combined with strength for the muscles that support knees and hips, food is a daily lever — not a miracle.

  1. Put a bag of frozen mixed vegetables on the weeknight rotation. Frozen counts.
  2. Choose salmon or sardines twice this week, or talk with your clinician about omega-3s if you do not eat fish.
  3. Drink water through the day. Sugary drinks add weight that joints have to carry.
