I read Sarah Callard's book: The Little Green Book Of Health - 250 Tips For An Eco Lifestyle. There are many great tips but one stood out to me as I am prone to sports injuries. The book states:
One of the best anti-inflammatory painkillers for the joints and for sports injuries is bromelain, which is actually enzyme from fresh pineapple juice. Bromelain reduces inflammation by first breaking down fibrin, a substance that would otherwise work in the body to cause local swelling. It has also been shown to be as effective as antibiotics in treating a variety of infectious and painful conditions, from bronchitis to pneumonia.
