Grapes

Grapes are filled with nutrients and antioxidants, as well as contain many anti-inflammatory substances. Consuming fresh grapes or grape powder several times per week can help reduce the level of inflammatory markers in your blood. In addition, this fruit comes with many compounds that can be helpful in treating arthritis. For instance, resveratrol is a type of antioxidant in the skin of grapes. It is able to prevent arthritis cells from being formed in the body. Another plant compound in the seed of grapes is proanthocyanidin, which can alleviate inflammation. [6]
