What food should you eat to give your feet better care?

There are several foods that can help improve foot health by reducing swelling, providing essential nutrients, and promoting overall well-being. Here are some key foods to consider:

1. Hydrating Foods

Maintaining proper hydration is crucial for foot health. Foods with high water content can help reduce swelling:

Apart from drinking enough water, fruits and vegetables like: Watermelon, Cucumbers, Oranges, Berries are good choices too. 

1. Electrolyte-Rich Foods.

Electrolytes help balance body fluids and reduce swelling. 

The good options are bananas, potatoes, sweet potatoes, avocado (my personal favourite!), yogurt.

1. Anti-Inflammatory Foods

Certain foods have anti-inflammatory properties that can help alleviate foot pain and swelling: 

• Omega-3 fatty acids: commonly found in fish like: salmon (another personal favourite!) and mackerel. 
• Antioxidants: foods like: nuts, berries, broccoli, spinach are good options. 
• Turmeric: this spice goes so well with warm curries or tea. (another personal favourite!)

Overall, maintaining a good balanced diet is the key to everything.  Hence apart from focusing on the intake of the above foods mentioned, don’t forget to treat yourself with something you love - you know occasionally we all need a piece of cake or brownie and they are the little magics which keep us sane. :)
