Inflammation is a silent killer.

It skyrockets your risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer (without you even realizing).

Here are the top 12 science-backed foods to reduce inflammation (bookmark this): 🧵

1. Red meat Image
Rich in carnosine and CLA, red meat lowers TNF-α and IL-6.

Unprocessed red meat doesn’t cause inflammation - refined carbs do.

Opt for grass-fed beef, seared rare in butter or ghee.

Debunking all the anti-red meat "science":
2. Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Oleocanthal in EVOO blocks the same enzymes as ibuprofen.

Myth: Fats are bad for you and will make you fat.

The natural molecule that widens your blood vessels and lowers blood pressure:

Nitric Oxide.

Low Nitric Oxide is a reason why blood pressure meds don't work for most people on them.

Here are 10 tips to boost it naturally (bookmark this): 🧵

1. Don't use mouthwash
2. Eat nitrate-rich foods.

Your body converts dietary nitrates into Nitric Oxide through a simple pathway:

Nitrates → Nitrites → Nitric Oxide.

The best sources are:

- Beets
- Lettuce
- Arugula
- Spinach

Eat at least one serving every single day.
3. Breathe through your nose.

Your paranasal sinuses produce Nitric Oxide.

When you inhale through your nose, it's carried into your lungs with the air.

Nasal breathing boosts Nitric Oxide production by up to 20%.

You can tape your mouth while you sleep too.

Endless steady cardio raises oxidative stress and burns muscle.

Short, intense bursts (sprints) mimic your ancestral fight-or-flight response, reducing visceral fat much faster: Image
