Let us face it; pain because of inflammation in joints is one of the most common complain around the globe. Though it is significant among senior people, it can affect people of all age groups. Inflammation in joints is often referred as Arthritis. Let us understand why we experience pain in such conditions. Between the movable joints, there is a fluid acting as a lubricant and hence resulting in proper movements of joints like wrists, knees, hips, shoulders, etc. If because of some reason, membrane that excretes the lubricant fluid gets inflamed then the body releases a bunch of inflammatory chemicals, resulting in damage to joint cartilage. Hence, we experience tenderness in joints, morning stiffness, and pain in joints. Two obvious solutions to reduce pain in conditions because of inflammation in joints are - 1. Start painkillers like Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Celebrex, etc. 2. Attack the root cause - reduce excess of redundant inflammation. Former option may give you an instant result, but it has many side effects like bleeding in the stomach, increased risk of heart attacks, liver damage, etc. However, the latter option attacks the cause of inflammation. Once inflammation is the body is reduced, pain automatically subsides. DHA omega 3 fatty acids as an anti-inflammatory agent Our body can convert DHA omega3 fat to a chemical called Resolvin D2. Resolvin D2 reacts with inner lining of blood vessels to form Nitric Acid. This layer of Nitric acid inhibits the excess of WBC (white blood cells) to attach to the inner linings of blood vessels and hence act as an anti-inflammatory agent. A rich DHA diet not only helps you prevent the excess of inflammation in the body but also helps you cure the existing surplus inflammation. It also increases your immunity levels. Though fish is the best source of DHA omega3 fatty acid, there are still many government warnings against eating too much fish. This is because of increasing water pollution and hence the levels of toxins in the fish flesh. Safe and easy option is fish oil supplements. Since, they undergo various refining processes; they have comparatively lower levels of toxicity in them. For best results to reduce inflammation in joints, look out for supplements that have high DHA content (1000 mg of fish oil should contain at least 250 mg of DHA) and have undergone the molecular distillation process. This is the only process known that can filter out all the harmful chemicals and toxins from the oil, leaving beside a pharmaceutical grade product. A blend of hoki oil and tuna oil has twice anti-inflammatory property and hence are more effective in reducing inflammation in joints.
