Inflammation is a natural process in our body that helps us deal with injury and disease. It helps fight off infection by bringing in more blood to the area and preventing bacteria from spreading further.

Almost every person will suffer from inflammation at some point in their life. With stress, poor diet, and other contributors, you may feel inflamed 100% of the time. But do you know how to control it? With products from Red Supps, we can help you work out what supplements for inflammation may be good for you.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

 If you have pain, swelling, or any other chronic condition, you may benefit from taking a Blackstone Labs Omega-3 supplement.

The omega-3s in fish oil fight inflammation by blocking the compounds that cause your body to overreact to irritants. They also decrease inflammation on their own and may protect against heart disease, arthritis, and other inflammatory conditions. 

Fish oil is effective in reducing joint pain caused by arthritis, improving mood, and lowering cholesterol levels in people with high triglycerides (a type of fat linked to heart disease). It's important to buy quality fish oil supplements made from wild-caught fish like salmon or sardines because they'll have the highest concentration of healthy omega-3 fatty acids in them.

Turmeric

This spice contains curcumin, often used in curries, which is a well-known anti-inflammatory and powerful antioxidant. In India, it has been been used as a remedy for arthritis and many Western studies have found that it may help with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. 

It works by reducing inflammation in the body through its active ingredient curcumin which has anti-inflammatory properties that can increase blood flow while also preventing blood vessels from constricting at a cellular level. This allows for better circulation throughout all parts of your body, which helps decrease swelling caused by injury or illness. 

One study* tested the effectiveness of turmeric against the prescription NSAID diclofenac sodium in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. Not only did turmeric significantly reduce pain and swelling, but there were also fewer side effects than with diclofenac sodium. Give Blackstone Labs a try with their Liposomal Turmeric supplement.

Resveratrol

The chemical compound resveratrol has anti-inflammatory properties that have been shown to inhibit the production of cytokines (proteins that cause inflammation), help reduce the risk of heart disease, and improve circulation, among other benefits. 

This supplement is derived from red grapes and is commonly used in wine production. While you could drink up to 10 glasses of wine a day to get enough resveratrol to reduce inflammation, it's much more efficient to take its supplement form. A study** from Japan showed that it increased insulin sensitivity and improved glycemic control in people with diabetes.

Bromelain

Do you like Pineapple juice? Bromelain is a supplement that many people have heard of, but few have tried. Bromelain is the pineapple-derived extract that's been used in the treatment of wounds for centuries and has been deemed an effective anti-inflammatory agent by many doctors. 

It works by binding to naturally occurring enzymes in your body, leading to the breakdown of proteins that are responsible for causing chronic inflammation. As a supplement, it even goes farther, as it can actually speed up the process of protein breakdown in the body. Having less inflammation is important, especially when dealing with joint pain and swelling, or during the healing process.

There are a variety of anti-inflammatory supplements that can be taken to help reduce the symptoms associated with inflammation. However, due to their complexity and strength, they should only be taken under the advice of a health professional. 

In order for real results to be achieved, it may be time to consider a deeper cleansing of your gut and organs. A diet free from refined products and unhealthy fats can drastically decrease levels of systemic inflammation, which makes a huge impact on your overall health.
