5 Worst Foods For Arthritis & Joint Pain

by DailyHealthPost Editorial

5. Processed Sugar (Especially Soda)

It’s no secret that soda is bad for you. Full-sugar soda is laden with more sweeteners and artificial flavoring in one bottle than a person should ingest in a week!

Processed sugar – like that found in your favorite carbonated beverages – trigger your body to release pro-inflammatory cytokines.[7] Cytokines are released by the immune system to send healing cells[8] to sites of injury, infection, or trauma.

This is all well and good when you actually have something wrong, but it will cause unnecessary inflammation and pain in your joints if the healing cells have nowhere else to go. 

Diet soda may cut out the sugar, but artificial sweeteners are their own version of evil for your body.
