An acid-forming lifestyle, characterized by processed foods, stress and lack of sleep, further exacerbates this process by creating a breeding ground for inflammation and cartilage damage.
A powerful juice for joint regeneration
One of the simplest solutions for improving cartilage health is the daily consumption of juices rich in nutrients and antioxidants. Thierry Casasnovas offers a recipe suitable for joints:
Recipe for special joint juice
Ingredients:
Carrots: They are rich in carotenoids, have anti-inflammatory properties and help lower cholesterol levels by improving cardiovascular health.
Beetroot: Its betacyanin content promotes blood circulation and cleanses the liver. It also provides iron, which is essential for oxygenating tissues.
Pomegranates: An Israeli study showed that regular consumption of pomegranates can reduce the thickening of blood vessel walls by up to 35% within one year.
Ginger: It contains gingerol, a powerful anti-inflammatory agent that thins the blood and improves circulation.
Turmeric: Rich in curcuminoids, it helps reduce inflammation and protects the joints.
Preparation:
Wash the vegetables and ginger and cut them into pieces.
Halve the pomegranate and remove the seeds by tapping the peel with the back of a knife.
Put all the ingredients through a juicer.
