Dr Rupy Aujla, a NHS doctor and founder of the Doctor's Kitchen, emphasizes the importance of incorporating certain plant-based foods into our diets to combat inflammation, boost energy, and reduce the risk of disease. In a recent video, he explores 10 anti-inflammatory foods that can lower inflammation markers, improve energy levels, and support long-term health. Some of these foods include berries, dark leafy greens, sprouts, extra virgin olive oil, nuts, seeds, and legumes.

Berries, such as blackcurrants, blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries, are rich in anthocyanins and can support heart and blood vessel health. Dark leafy greens like kale and spinach act as a natural multivitamin, providing essential nutrients and antioxidants for longevity and brain health. Broccoli sprouts are highlighted for their anti-inflammatory potential, while extra virgin olive oil and nuts are recommended for heart health and reducing disease risk. Seeds and legumes are also noted for their omega-3s, fiber, and gut microbiome-nourishing properties. Dr Rupy suggests incorporating these plant-based foods into our daily diets to help combat inflammation and promote overall well-being.
