Here are the 6 dietary enemies of your joints

2. Red Meats and Deli Meats
Red meats (beef, pork, lamb) and deli meats (sausage, ham, bacon) contain saturated fats and purines, which promote inflammation and the formation of uric acid, thus worsening joint pain.

👉 Healthy Alternative: Replace them with white meats (chicken, turkey) or plant-based proteins (lentils, chickpeas, tofu).

3. Dairy Products
Some dairy products, especially those high in fat (cheese, cream, whole milk), contain a protein called casein, which can promote inflammation in some sensitive individuals.

👉 Healthy Alternative: Opt for plant-based milks (almond, coconut, soy) and alternative sources of calcium such as almonds or green vegetables.

4. Fried Foods and Processed Oils
Fried foods (fries, doughnuts, potato chips) and hydrogenated oils (margarine, palm oil) contain trans fatty acids, which increase inflammation and accelerate cartilage destruction.

👉 Healthy alternative: Choose oils rich in omega-3s, such as olive, canola, or flaxseed oil, which have anti-inflammatory properties.
