Sugar Substitutes, Chinese food and Pain

According to the Annals of Pharmacotherapy,  foods containing MSG or aspartame can cause chronic pain sensitization.   Simply removing these items from the diet for as little as 4 consecutive month can result in the elimination of all chronic pain symptoms. 

My blog from April of 2013 references some great substitutes for aspartame.  As far as the MSG is concerned, most Chinese restaurants are amenable to offering dishes which do not contain this added chemical.

A report in the journal, Surgical Neurology, states that 59% of patients suffering from chronic pain subsequent to degenerative spinal disease can eliminate the need for pain drugs by consuming adequate levels of omega 3 essential fatty acids.

More information about the benefits of anti-inflammatory foods can be found in my October 7th blog.
