Here are 9 science-backed ways to reduce inflammation and feel like yourself again: 🧵
1. Ditch the sugar trap
Sugar is like gasoline on the fire of inflammation.
Swap it for foods that fight pain:
• Berries
• Dark chocolate (70%+)
• Walnuts
• Greek yogurt
These heal from the inside out.

2. Use garlic like medicine
Garlic targets key inflammation triggers: CRP, IL-6, TNF-α.
Raw or aged—it works.
• 1 clove raw per day
• OR 600mg aged garlic extract
It’s not just a spice. It’s natural anti-inflammatory therapy.

3. Turmeric + black pepper = natural painkiller
Turmeric lowers inflammation.
Black pepper increases curcumin absorption by 2,000%.
Stack them together:
• 500–1000mg curcumin
• With piperine (black pepper extract)
Your joints will feel the difference.

4. Drink green tea instead of coffee
Green tea contains EGCG—a compound that calms inflammation and supports your gut lining.
2–3 cups a day can lower CRP, reduce swelling, and boost immunity.
Try it for a week—you’ll feel the shift.

6. Add Berberine to your stack
Berberine reduces IL-6 and CRP—major inflammation signals.
It also stabilizes blood sugar, another hidden trigger.
Try 500mg 1–2x/day.
It’s one of nature’s most powerful metabolic tools.

7. Prioritize a consistent sleep schedule
Forget “more sleep.” Focus on regular sleep.
Sleeping and waking at the same time daily:
• Stabilizes cortisol
• Reduces CRP
• Optimizes healing
Rhythm = recovery.

8. Eat fiber like it’s medicine
Your gut is inflammation ground zero.
Feed it right with:
• Broccoli
• Lentils
• Spinach
• Flaxseeds
These help gut microbes produce butyrate—an anti-inflammatory compound that heals from within.

Vitamin D regulates inflammation.
And sunshine is your natural source.
A daily walk in the morning sun:
• Boosts vitamin D
• Reduces pain
• Enhances mood and energy
Light + movement = inflammation control.
