Anti Inflammatory:

This past week my friend and colleague Lisa who filmed the Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar A & B) and who also answered your questions on Chaturanga. https://www.melissawest.com/chaturanga-dandasana/
asked me to put together a juice for inflammation for her.

First of all, lets look at what inflammation is in your body. Things like minor injuries, infections to more serious conditions such as migraines, fibromyalgia, arthritis and colitis can result in inflammation in your body. What happens in your body responds to infection, toxins, and injury by creating inflammation in your body.Your body’s inflammatory response can range from redness and swelling to pain and heat.

Foods high in beta cryptoxanthin help with inflammation, these include: peppers, pumpkin, winter squash, persimmons (yum), tangerines, papayas. Zeaxanthin, which is found in leafy green vegetables yellow and orange fruits and veggies is a carotenoid that helps reduce inflammation and also has anti-inflammatory qualities.

Here are some other fruits and veggies that reduce inflammation:
celery
purple cabbage
lettuce, spinach, turnip greens
oranges, grapefruit and lemons

Anti-Inflammatory Juice
2 apples
1/2 butternut squash, peeled and cut into pieces (use an apple peeler to peel the squash)
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

FULL RECIPE LISTED BELOW
Gemma’s Traditional Irish Scones

INGREDIENTS
3 ½ cups (1 lb/ 16oz ) Flour (all purpose/plain)
5 level tsp Baking powder
1 Generous pinch Of salt
¼ cup (2 oz/60g) white sugar
1 stick (4 oz/ 125g) cold salted Butter,
1 Whole egg
2 oz Double cream
7 oz whole milk
Milk to glaze

METHOD
1. In a large bowl mix the dry ingredients together
2. Rub in the cold butter with your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs.
3. If adding dried fruit eg. Raisins, berries, citrus rind, chocolate chips add them now before you add liquid
4. Mix your egg with the milk and cream and pour into your flour mix (if you don’t have cream you can use only milk)
5. With an open hand mix loosely your scone mix until your dough forms. The bowl should be clean from the dough
6. Turn your dough onto a floured work surface
7. Knead lightly to give your dough a smooth surface
8. Pat your dough down with your hand until around 1 inches thick
9. With a scone cutter cut out your lovely little scones. You will have around 12
10. Put on a baking tray, glaze the tops of your scones with some milk to give them a golden top when baked
11. Bake at 350oF (18OoC) for 35 minutes.
12. Enjoy with Irish butter, jam and freshly whipped cream. Scones are best eaten the day they are baked but the next day you can pop them back in the oven to freshen them up again.
