Do You have Osteoarthritis? Then, eat this...

The December 13, issue of Arthritis & Rheumatology reports that sulforaphanes have been shown to block inflammation ( Prostaglandin 2s) and protect against cartilage destruction both in cells in the lab and in animals.

Would I suggest those of you suffering from this type of arthritis go right out and buy supplements containing these phytochemicals?  No, not really.  We need to remember that there are numerous phytonutrients in foods that are either eliminated or reduced when manufacturers get their hands on the vegetables.  We simply do not know which of the nutrients are necessary for full utilization by the body.

My recommendation for anyone with osteoarthritis is to include the following sulforaphane-containing cruciferous vegetables in their daily diet....broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts (my favorite), cabbage, bok choi, cres and other such dark green leafy vegies.
