Reducing pain ultimately is a matter of reducing inflammation. Sometimes things seem very complicated, and other times they are super simple and help more than we can imagine.

Let me show you my first tip!

First: A Good Diet

For breakfast, I had three eggs with mushrooms and avocado with a digestive tea. For lunch, I had grilled chicken with a bit of white rice and sautéed veggies. And for dinner, I’ll have zucchini soup and grilled sardines. Ultimately nothing too complicated!

Here are a few small tips to optimize blood sugar regulation when you eat:

First, you eat the vegetables, then the healthy fats and protein (meat, fish, eggs, oil, nuts, avocado), and finally, the carbohydrates (pasta, rice, tubers, fruit, etc.). For example, at lunch, I ate the veggies with the chicken first and then finished with the rice. Another important consideration is to do your best to eat around 30g of protein in each meal to stabilize your blood sugar throughout the day. You’ll feel more energetic and experience fewer energy crashes!
