Omega-3 Fats
A balanced diet plays a key role in treating joint pain, particularly in weight-bearing areas such as the knee. For instance, refined sugars would enhance the pain, while a diet with omega-3 fats would alleviate the symptoms as they come with many anti-inflammatory properties. Some foods to add to your daily meals include cold-water fish such as tuna, mackerel, and salmon or nut oil such as pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, soybeans, canola oil, or flaxseed oil. They can be especially helpful for people with arthritis. Alternatively, you can also take supplements with omega-3 fatty acids to deal with knee pain. [12]
