To cut sugar, avoid white bread, white pasta, carrots, corn, etc.
whole grains, fish, etc go Mediterranean diet

Op, do not take advice from people that ask you to not eat some fruits and vegetables due to their sugar content.

No to GMO foods

I assume you mean "alkaline" food. However, lemon water is acidic - the very opposite of alkaline. A basic chemistry class could help you out.

Funny how sure you sound when you are incorrect about how the human body handles lemon juice.

Just because you read something weird on the internet does not make it true. There is no such thing as "alkalizing the body". That's not a thing, and drinking acid certainly won't make it happen.

Medically reviewed article. Definitely “weird.”

Could you please point out where in that article it stated that lemons “alkalinize” the body? I can’t seem to find that part.

Appendicitis
Tonsillitis
Bronchitis

“-itis” refers to inflammation.

Strawman. No one disagrees that these things are real. We disagree with all the other hooey

You do know that medical advisors often disagree among themselves? So it’s up to you heed the advice that’s most in line with your own research and understanding. If you have no interest or capacity to do your own research, well, then you’re stuck with whatever you get.

You want a low FODMAP diet. Stick to it for 2-4 weeks, then you can add things back in one at a time to see how your body responds.

Um, that’s what I mean by MIDDLE GROUND, dummy.

This sounds like a QANON post.

Your arrogance is showing, not to mention your nastiness. I hope you aren’t one of ‘those’ physicians. Lol.

Taking Xeljanz has reduced inflammation.

Seems best to reduce the causes of the inflammation.

I've been told by doctors that ibuprofen is not good for most people. It is really rough on the intestines and can cause malabsorption and leaky gut issues.

My own GP cautioned me to quit using NSAIDs except when I was really very much uncomfortable with pain, because at middle age and beyond the impact on gut AND heart of taking NSAIDs regularly is really not good. I found after I quit the meds that I became more tolerant of my spinal stenosis pain and had as much relief - more, really - from adopting a daily practice of yoga and other gentle movement. Did this detox in January and feeling really good a few months later. Cannot recall the last time I took meds for pain other than my migraine abortive and I’ve had fewer of those since quitting the meds and the UPFs.

I had a recent revelation about inflammation. I'm nearing 60 now, but I had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as a young child. I took 16 aspirin daily for several years to fight the inflammation, but I was still left with joint deformities in my hands and feet. I always assumed that I started taking NSAIDs too late to avoid the joint deformities.

But the current thinking is that while NSAIDs fight inflammation, they do nothing to fight the underlying disease of RA. The inflammation should be understood as a separate symptom of RA and not as the cause of the joint destruction. Eliminating inflammation with NSAIDs (or diet) does nothing about the disease.

(There are drugs now -- such as methotrexate and some biologic drugs -- that *do* fight the disease of RA)

I don't know how much this applies to other diseases with inflammation.

Americans eat too much sugar, too much salt, too many carbs and too much processed flour.

Eat a better balance of fat/carb/protein. And not too much. A 30/30/40 split is better than the typical American 40/50/10

Berries, fish, and veggies are your friends. Prioritize sleep and daily walks.

And yet Europeans are more likely to die of cancer (even after correcting for older populations.) More Europeans smoke. It is tiresome to continually read about European lifestyle perfection.
