 Number two, alcohol. When you drink alcohol, it has been shown that it can make something called C-reactive protein go up in your body. C-reactive protein is like a sign in your blood that shows if there is inflammation happening in your body. So, alcohol can make this sign go up indicating that there might be more inflammation in your body. Number three, saturated fats. If you want to eat healthier, avoid fried foods like french fries and fast food. Instead, cook your food by grilling or sauteing. If you need to use oil, try using olive oil. This is part of the Mediterranean diet which focuses on fresh and wholesome foods to keep you healthy.
