What's more effective for women
Dec 09, 2024
A diet that reduces pain is more effective for women than for men.
Professor Alison Hill's team at the University of South Australia said in the journal Nutrition Research that they found that healthy food intake according to dietary guidelines reduced pain after a survey of the association between diet, body fat, and pain in 650 adults.
According to the research team, the pain-reducing effect of the healthy diet was more pronounced in women than men and was independent of their weight.
The association with pain was analyzed by scoring the consumption of fruits, vegetables, grains, lean meat and alternative meats, dairy products, and alternative foods designated as a health core food group in the Australian Dietary Guidelines.
The researchers found that women with good diet quality had lower pain levels and better physical function, but this effect was much weaker in men, suggesting that diet quality affects pain differently in men and women. It also pointed out that while the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of the core food group may be reducing pain, it is not yet known whether the pain is worse due to a low-quality diet or whether the quality of the diet is lower due to pain.
Meanwhile, the United States 'WebMD' recently introduced medically reviewed foods to help reduce inflammation and relieve pain.
First of all, ginger is known to calm the stomach and relieve motion sickness, and some studies have shown that it can relieve menstrual pain. Blueberries also contain a lot of phytonutrients that can reduce inflammation and relieve pain, and pumpkin seeds are known to be a good source of magnesium that can help prevent migraines and osteoporosis. Salmon is rich in anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, which are good for heart health and can relieve joint pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis. Curcumin in turmeric, which produces curry's yellow color, is known to reduce inflammation and relieve arthritis symptoms. Studies of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis who took curcumin supplements have reported that they can walk better without side effects of drug use.
Extra virgin olive oil, including oleocantal ingredients with anti-inflammatory effects and protein rubricin, which acts as a preventive agent of cartilage degradation, is known to help relieve joint pain and protect cartilage. It is also explained that peppermint oil helps relieve pain, gas, and abdominal bloating in irritable bowel syndrome.
