If you're not on any anti-coagulant, and not allergic to fish, you may want to consider eating more oily, cold water fish like sardine and salmon. They are high in omega-3 fatty acids which have been found to be one of the best naturally occurring anti-inflammatory compound. Go for wild fishes if you can afford it. Otherwise, you can also opt for omega-3 oil supplement which does not contain toxic pollutants. I've written an article on the importance of a <a href="http://theconsciouslife.com/anti-inflammatory-diet-how-to-balance-omega-3-omega-6-fats.htm" rel="nofollow">balanced omega-3 and omega-6 ratio</a> which you may like to read. You may also want to check out the <a href="http://theconsciouslife.com/anti-inflammation-resources" rel="nofollow">anti-inflammation resources</a> on this blog. Note that rosacea can be triggered by certain food. But one food that causes an inflammation response in one may be perfectly okay for another person with rosacea. There are people who react to spicy food, and there are also some who flare up when they come in contact with alcohol. The key is to be aware of the type of food that you react to, and avoid them as much as you can. I hope this bit of information is of use to you. Good luck! Thank you for your comment, Cetana.

We like to slice them, season & EVOO, & bake in the oven. So good. I am allergic to Aspirin products, I have Uticaria and Fibromyalgia. So this list is very helpful for me to eat as healthy as possible because I do live a very active life. Thanks I’m glad to see sweet potatoes made the list. We like to

Apparently, unlike saturated fats, some studies suggest that fats from coconut oil are less likely to be deposited as plaques in our blood vessels. Instead these medium-chain fatty acids are used up as energy like carbohydrates. Then I did a check on Nutrition Data on coconut oil's <a href="http://theconsciouslife.com/anti-inflammatory-foods-inflammation-factor-ratings.htm" rel="nofollow">Inflammation Factor Rating</a> and found to my surprise that it scored -111 for 1 tbsp and that makes it moderately inflammatory. So while there are some claims about the benefits of coconut oil, I wouldn't swap my extra virgin olive oil for it anytime soon. Having said that, I think it wouldn't harm to include some fresh coconut milk (if available) in desserts and curries once or twice a week. Where I live, coconut milk is used quite liberally and it really lifts the taste of foods to a heavenly state! Yum, yum! Hi Gina, Glad to hear from you again.
