The foods you eat can have a similarly anti-inflammatory effect (if you eat anti-inflammatory foods like fish and vegetables) or they can have a pro-inflammatory effect. This is the case with the foods that follow, which are among the worst foods for joint pain.

Got Joint Pain? Skip These 5 Foods!

5. Vegetable Oil

Forget the idea that vegetable oils like soybean and corn are good for you. These omega-6 fats are linked to inflammation, and they’re likely to turn rancid when you cook with them.

4. Gluten

If you’re sensitive to gluten (and many are without knowing) your body may provoke an innate immune response that causes joint pain and other symptoms. If you’re not sure, eliminate all gluten-containing foods for two weeks and then take note if your joint pain worsens upon re-introduction. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye and barley.

3. Char-Broiled and Blackened Foods

Cooking food at high temperatures (broiling, frying, grilling, blackening, or barbecuing) lead to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which are known to cause high levels of inflammation.

2. Soda

This sugary beverage has been found to make knee osteoarthritis, a common source of joint pain, worse.[i] This may very well be due to the large amounts of refined sugar it contains, as refined carbs lead to spikes in your blood sugar and insulin, and in turn increase body-wide inflammation significantly.[ii]

1. Partially Hydrogenated Oil (Trans Fats)

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) just announced that trans fats would be banned from foods, but it’s going to take some time to get these highly inflammatory synthetic fats totally off the market. In the meantime, avoid high-trans-fat-risk foods like microwave popcorn, fried foods, frozen pizzas, cake, cookies, pie, margarines and spreads, refrigerated biscuits, ready-to-use frosting and coffee creamers.

General rule of thumb for good health, not just joint pains...
I find I have reaction to potatoes which might be expected because they are an inflammatory food. I use the ratings on this site to look up food nutrition. Especially since I've been moving toward more raw food and vegetarian diet, I look up the nutritional 'completeness' of the foods I eat often and use the look up complementary foods function to find the foods that fill out the nutritional value.

The saturated fats in bacon and other animal products contain arachidonic acid, which may worsen inflammation and related pain and swelling.
