That orange-hued pumpkin on your patio may be the new symbol of arthritis

prevention.

Beta-cryptoxanthin is a carotenoid found in yellow-, orange-, and red-hued

produce, such as pumpkins and red peppers. Studies show this caroteniod

could help reduce the risk of inflammatory polyarthritis by up to 40

percent. Get your fill from orange juice, carrots, and watermelon as well.

 

RealAge Benefit: Getting the right amount of antioxidants through diet or

supplements can make your RealAge 6 years younger.

Great information, though I would disagree about peppers. They are a

nightshade (along with [tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant and paprika)

and are known causes of inflammation, especially if you have type A

blood.

On the other hand, Randi, the capasicum in peppers is a known treatment for

arthritis. Perhaps it varies from person to person. Also those peppers are

high in Vit C which often helps with pain relief.

 

Welcome to the list btw.
