8. Soy
While soy was originally supposed to be good for you, the opposite has been discovered through the years. It can raise the inflammation levels in your body. Instead of soy, it is suggested that you use flax, chia seeds, and hem seed.
9. Processed foods
Foods that are already processed and prepared are not good for you in general. You can read all of the ingredients that have been used, but the problem is some of the names are hard to pronounce, and you really don’t know what you are eating. Most of the foods that you can pronounce are not good for you either — for example, sugar, salt, and trans fats. Many of the chemicals have been found to promote cancer, cause you to gain weight, and are responsible for behavioral changes as well as activating additional inflammation of your joints
10. Dairy
More and more people seem to be having a reaction to dairy in general. It has been found to raise inflammation as well as aggravating the symptoms of arthritis. Some people have found their arthritis was cured by removing dairy from their eating regimen.
