7. Cinnamon
According to a study that tested up to 115 foods, cinnamon had the most potent anti-inflammatory effect. This potential is given by cinnamaldehydes, which are richly found in cinnamon and inhibit inflammation through many pathways. Thus, cinnamon can be a beneficial aid to control symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory diseases. To achieve the full potential of cinnamon, we may use it as a spice and take it in supplements at a higher dose (1-3 grams a day).
