Anti-Inflammatory Vegetable Stew Recipe Ingredients:
Broccoli
The main vegetable in this stew is broccoli which is packed full of health benefits for you. It is helpful for the heart, reduces the risk of cancer and is good for blood sugar control for diabetics. It is high in fiber, protein and detoxifying phytochemicals and one cup of cooked broccoli only has 31 calories and no fat. Broccoli is one of the many alkaline-forming foods that help prevent cellular damage to the eyes and may even slow the aging process.
Cabbage
Eat cabbage if you want the health benefits of beautiful glowing skin, and an immune system powerful enough to fight off just about anything. Don’t forget this highly nutritious but common vegetable that is delicious in this anti-inflammatory stew.
Onions
WHO recognizes that Onions help relieve symptoms such as coughs, congestion asthma, and respiratory infections. Onions are full of protective phytonutrients, vitamins, trace minerals, quercetin (an important flavonoid), chromium, and unique anti-inflammatory nutrients.
Carrots
Carrots – forget about Vitamin A pills. With this orange crunchy superfood, you get Vitamin A and a host of other powerful health benefits including beautiful skin, cancer prevention, and anti-aging.
The carrots add a soft crunch to this vegetable stew.
Coconut Oil
Did you know that Coconut oil is actually very good for us. In tropical climates like Polynesia, Sri Lanka, and the Yucatan where they have a diet high in coconut oil, the people are healthier, have less heart disease, cancer, and colon problems than unsaturated fat eaters. It is now accepted that there is good cholesterol and there are good saturated fats. It is a good oil to use in making this anti-inflammatory stew. Learn the 12 benefits of Coconut Oil, this newly declared an Amazing SuperFood.
Kirkland Signature Cold Pressed Unrefined Organic Virgin Coconut Oil, 84 Ounce is something I always have on had for cooking and baking.
Ginger
Ginger is a wonderful herb superfood full of health benefits. Spicy aromatic ginger adds a unique flavour to meals, beverages and this anti-inflammatory stew. The many wonderful health benefits of ginger also cause the cells of my body to glow with gratitude.
Cumin
The Cumin seed in this anti-inflammatory stew has many health benefits as it contains naturally occurring substances that work as antioxidants. It has anticancer properties, helps control blood sugar, fights bacteria and parasites. Cumin also has a great anti-inflammatory effect on the body and it aids in weight loss and may help lower cholesterol.
Turmeric
Turmeric’s combination of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects explains why many people with joint disease find relief from arthritis when they use the spice regularly. Learn about the Turmeric Health Benefits – The REAL Spice of Life.
Salt
Himalayan Salt is actually good for you! 100% NATURAL PINK & CERTIFIED: Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt which you can get at the Amazon link which is Kosher Certified, Non-GMO, and does not contain any MSG, Soy, Gluten, Dairy, or anti-caking agents.
Black Pepper
Black Pepper adds a little extra flavour to this anti-inflammatory stew recipe.
I like both of these black peppers: Trader Joe’s Black Pepper Peppercorns with Grinder or Simply Organic Pepper, Black Medium Grind Certified Organic. The pepper adds a bit of heat to this stew. You can add pepper according to your taste.
Water
When you are making your stew make sure you are not filling your body with chemicals from unclean water. I know that it was making me ill a long time ago when I used to drink regular water and I have always drank filtered water since. As it can be expensive to always have to buy water I decided to purchase a filtration system to filter my water at home. It is an upfront cost but it has saved me lot’s over the years. Here is the water filter that I am currently using and I am very happy with it. The only way to remove fluoride from your water is to use a reverse osmosis system and some systems are better than others. When I did my research this is the one I decided on.
APEC Water System, 5-Stage Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Filter System
