Getting adose of beneficial bacteriais a great way to start the day since maintaining a healthy gut is essential to prevent inflammation. Start with a bowl of plain regular yogurt or Greek yogurt for the gut-healthy bacteria and to minimize added sugar. Then add some berries for sweetness and flavor, and also for their polyphenols. These bioactive compounds are associated with berries' red and purple hues and have antioxidant-like effects that stop inflammation.
Try ourYogurt with Blueberries & Honeyrecipe and substitute any berry, fresh or frozen. Top with toasted nuts to add satiety and crunch, and drizzle a touch of honey or maple syrup, if desired.
4. Avocado Toast
Whole-grain toasttopped with avocadois also a great choice, thanks to monounsaturated fats, vitamin E, fiber and carotenoids. According to a 2021Moleculesreview, this combination of nutrients and compounds works together to soothe existing inflammation and may even counteract the start of new inflammation.
