What are the best fruits/veggies for arthritis?

I am starting to read a lot obout controling arthritis pain and swelling through juicing. I tried a centrifugal juicer and quickly learned why I did not want to go that route due to the increased pulp/decreased juice and the oxidation issues from whipping and heating.

I am now waiting to receive my masticating juicer and want to hit the juicer running. I understand that cherry and pineapple juices are good for arthritis. Can you give me additional ideas?

Hi Alan, welcome to the world of healthy juicing! I'm glad that you realized the benefits of and invested in a masticating juicer towards your health.

Arthritis is a form of inflammation, therefore, anti-inflammatory juices help to relieve the pain. You are right to say that pineapple and cherry juices are some of the nutritious anti-inflammatory juices that you can add to your menu.
