Expert on holistic nutrition Sophia Clarke thinks that controlling inflammation mostly depends on our diet.
Her basic dinner ideas centre on fresh, nutritious foods that lower inflammation and offer a taste sensation. Sophia says, “You don’t have to overhaul your kitchen over night.” “Little adjustments can have significant impact.”
Breakfast: Turmeric Smoothie Bowl
Breakfast for Sophia that is most anti-inflammatory is a turmeric smoothie bowl. She says, “blend frozen bananas, almond milk, turmeric, ginger, and a bit of cinnamon.” Top it for more texture and nutrients with chia seeds and fresh berries.
Lunch: Quinoa Salad with Avocado and Greens
A filling quinoa salad is ideal lunchtime fare. Sophia advises toss cooked quinoa with baby spinach, chopped avocado, cherry tomatoes, and olive oil drizzle. “The olive oil’s and avocado’s healthy fats are amazing for reducing inflammation,” she says.
Dinner: Baked Salmon with Steamed Vegetables
Sophia calls for baked fish seasoned with lemon and garlic for dinner. Team it with sweet potatoes and steamed broccoli. “Salmon is heavy in omega-3 fatty acids, which are great for lowering inflammation,” she says.
Snacks: Golden Milk
Sophia looks to golden milk when hunger arises between meals. She notes, “Warm almond milk with turmeric, black pepper, and a touch of honey is soothing and anti-inflammatory.”
