5-Day Anti-Inflammatory Nutrition Reset (with Meal Plan)
/If you’ve been feeling bloated, tired, or inflamed lately — your body might be asking for a reset. This isn’t about dieting or restriction; it’s about giving your body the support it needs through simple, whole foods that naturally reduce inflammation. It’s about nourishing your body from the inside out.
Inflammation is part of the body’s healing process, but when it becomes chronic — from stress, poor sleep, or processed food — it can impact your mood, energy, digestion, and even your ability to lose weight. The good news? Food is powerful medicine and you can change your internal status with the choices you make.
Below you’ll find anti-inflammatory recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks — all focused on balancing blood sugar, improving gut health, and nourishing your mind and body.
At the end, you’ll find a simple 5-day sample reset plan showing how to put it all together.
