Osteoarthritis, or chronic degenerative arthropathy, is one of the most common joint diseases. In France, it affects no less than 10 million people according to data from the National Institute of Health and Medical Research (Inserm). This can be the result of several factors such as old age – 65% of patients who suffer from it are over 65 years old -, heredity, metabolic abnormalities or even the result of other diseases, indicates the ‘Inserm.
The symptoms of osteoarthritis are a major embarrassment for those who suffer from it. “It is manifested by pain and stiffness, and sometimes by inflammation and/or an accumulation of fluid in the joint cavity”, can we read on the website of the institute which mentions the loss of mobility as the main handicap of osteoarthritis.

Five foods to avoid
As reported by our colleagues from C news, it is advisable to exclude certain common foods from your diet in order to reduce the pain associated with osteoarthritis. Indeed, the lack of physical activity and the fact of following a poor diet are among the factors likely to lead to or aggravate the symptoms linked to chronic degenerative arthropathy.
As a reminder, this disease is an inflammatory reaction of the joint which results from an inflammation of the cartilages. For this reason, it is advisable to limit the consumption of foods that promote inflammation such as cold cuts or red meat, two very acidifying foods, rich in salt and saturated fatty acids. For the same reasons, it is advisable to avoid vegetable oils rich in omega-6 and to favor more omega-3, fatty acids recognized for their anti-inflammatory action, which are found in particular in oily fish.
