關節發炎是忙碌的都市人疾病。患者每每感到有遊走性疼痛、痛無定處。而每到寒冷、乾燥的天氣，便更容易導致關節周邊肌肉僵硬，關節痛可以是脊骨、肩頸、手指、膝和髖關節痛。如不及時從飲食處理，關節病會演變成嚴重關節痛及退化。 發炎是人體免疫系統對刺激、受傷或感染的反應，當身體發熱或紅腫時，這就是發炎機制正常工作中。這是正常的反應（實際上是一件好事），也是康復的自然過程。但是，慢性發炎會對人體和健康產生負面影響，慢性發炎會導致體重增加和許多疾病。 除了以上因素，源於基因問題，某些人會較容易患上關節痛，壓力、發炎的食物和活動量不足會使這種風險更大。因此當我們改變生活及飲食時，不但減低關節痛的風險，甚至可以使這種疾病永遠和你遠離。 加工肉類 火腿、培根、香腸關節痛人士要一律避免。因加工食品（如快餐，冷凍食品和加工肉品）是否引致發炎的主因。油炸食品和部分氫化的油中含有反式脂肪酸，這是一種被改良的不飽和脂肪酸，增加發炎程度。 紅肉 紅肉如豬牛羊內𥚃含很多隱藏脂肪。相反，攝取紅肉及加工紅肉的量越多，發炎指標就越高，因此建議飲食應多以白肉魚及家禽代替。 脂肪類食物 脂肪於體內氧化的過程中會產生酮體，而過多酮體會刺激到關節。 因此建議有類風濕關節炎或關節痛人士應忌食如炸物、月餅、湯圓、粽子、肥肉、牛奶等高脂肪類的食物。 精製麵粉製品及精製食物 精精製澱粉質如蛋糕、餅乾、精緻糕點等；白糖、冰糖、糖飲料和精製碳水等食物要遠離。這些食品所含物質均會引致發炎加劇。 煙及酒類 煙含尼古丁，尼古丁引發血管收縮，使手部血液供應減少30%，導致指尖關節長期處於缺血缺氧狀態；其次，煙草代謝物干擾免疫系統，促使抗環瓜氨酸抗體水平升高，這種抗體與關節骨質破壞直接相關，而且與酒類一起引發痛風，加劇關節問題。 關節痛人士應多食以下食物： 番茄及胡籮蔔 番茄中含有的茄紅素能幫助抑制體內會破壞、分解骨組織的「破骨細胞（Osteoclast）」。日本藥劑師高橋寬也指出，茄紅素雖沒有維生素A的活性，卻是所有類胡蘿蔔素中抗氧化能力最強的植化素。人體不會合成茄紅素，需由外界攝取，進入人體後，會經淋巴管運送到血液，最後被送到人體許多組織及器官中。胡籮蔔所含維他命A，都是天然的抗氧化劑，具有強勁的抗氧化能力，能增強身體抵抗力、降低發炎反應。 水果 多吃橙、梨、菠蘿、木瓜、甜椒等含類黃酮的水果，或有助抑制關節發炎反應。 而且這些水果有抗氧化作用，可減少自由基，延緩關節退化。 柑橘類水果，多吃有助抑制關節發炎反應。 綠茶 綠茶茶中有四種基本酚類物質，其中的多酚為一種抗氧化劑，能減少炎症及減緩軟骨被破壞，但並不是所有的綠茶都含有相同的多酚量，抹茶粉(綠茶葉輾磨而成)比浸泡的綠茶來的濃度高。 研究顯示綠茶能減低風濕性關節炎對關節造成的發炎及傷害。 魚類（Omega 3脂肪酸) Omega-3脂肪酸乃不飽和脂肪酸，不但可以維持心臟、心血管、眼睛及腦部等健康，它更具有抗發炎及減緩慢性發炎作用。Omega-3脂肪酸的抗炎活性能有效改善關節炎、痛風及增強肌肉活動量。 另外，亦Omega-3脂肪酸能滋潤皮膚減少發炎，有助改善濕敏肌膚，改善抗炎能力。如平常有偏食習慣或不能確保每天吸取1200毫克Omega-3更需選用優質補充劑。 WHC小千金及小金蛋，選用秘魯智利深海野生魚仔純度高達95% Omega-3，每粒純正魚油含1200毫克Omega-3 採用rTG型態，更易被人體吸收，EPA：DHA為專家推薦3：2黃金比例，預防炎症; 同時配搭Vitamin D3，補鈣入骨，預防關節痛。 選用秘魯/智利深海野生魚仔; 採用rTG形態，更易被人體吸收; 純度高達95%的Omega-3，有效改善心血管疾病; 添加日本Kaneka公司專利還原型輔酶Q10，減少心力不足、痙攣悶塞 同時有助支架搭橋後心肌健康，避免血管再狹窄含有維他命K2+D3，穩定鈣磷代謝，配合高純度魚油，高度抗氧化，補鈣入骨，預防關節痛。 參考文獻： Palazzo, C., Nguyen, C., Lefevre-Colau, M. M., Rannou, F. & Poiraudeau, S. Risk factors and burden of osteoarthritis. Ann. Phys. Rehabil Med. 59, 134–138 (2016).

Unbalanced diet during the long holidays? Fish oil fat-reducing program | Triple benefits of burning fat, protecting joints, and reducing stress! After a long vacation, when returning to work, many people will find that they have accumulated belly fat during the holidays. Weight loss has once again become a hot topic. In fact, you don’t have to go on a diet to lose weight. Fish oil , as a health supplement, has also received much attention in Hong Kong in recent years. Does fish oil make you fat? Expert consensus explains your doubts The rumor that "fish oil makes you fat" has deterred many people from taking fish oil. However, according to the "Chinese Expert Consensus on Medical Nutritional Treatment of Overweight/Obesity (2016 Edition)", during the period of energy restriction (i.e. dieting), supplementing with foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids or fish oil in moderation can help improve weight loss. Although there is limited evidence on the effect of taking fish oil alone on body weight and body fat, it has a positive effect on improving waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio and blood lipid indicators. Whether you need to lose a lot of weight or want to fine-tune your body shape, it is worth a try. 1. How does fish oil help reduce fat? Three scientific principles Improve metabolism and optimize fat structure Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids in fish oil help promote the entry of fatty acids into mitochondria, enhance fat oxidation, make fat easier to convert into energy, and at the same time improve insulin sensitivity, which helps control body fat. Reduce SREBP-1 and reduce fat synthesis SREBP-1 is a protein closely related to obesity and diabetes. Fish oil can inhibit the activity of SREBP-1 and reduce the synthesis of triglycerides. It is particularly effective in reducing visceral fat and improving waist circumference. 2. Build muscle, protect joints, and improve athletic performance The process of losing weight requires not only reducing fat, but also protecting joints and strengthening muscles. During exercise, joint pressure increases, which can easily lead to discomfort. Fish oil can help reduce muscle fatigue and joint wear after exercise, and improve athletic performance . In particular, fish oil products containing NEM eggshell membrane ingredients (such as WHC joint fish oil), which add patented NEM eggshell membrane and high-purity Omega-3, can more effectively protect cartilage health and reduce joint discomfort. Studies have shown that daily intake of NEM® 500mg for four weeks can significantly reduce joint discomfort, which is equivalent to the nutritional intake of 40 eggs.

Fish oil helps relieve stress and inhibits cortisol secretion During the weight loss process, the stress hormone cortisol can easily rise due to exercise or excessive stress, affecting mood and even hindering muscle gain and fat loss. Omega-3 in fish oil can help reduce cortisol, stabilize mood, improve sleep, and promote rapid recovery of the body , which is suitable for both men and women. Omega-3 and Omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids can reduce body fat accumulation, promote fatty acid oxidation in the liver and muscles, increase body glycogen storage, and have a synergistic effect on both muscle building and fat loss. Fish oil - an all-round helper for weight loss, body shaping and joint protection Whether you are losing weight through dieting or exercising to get in shape, fish oil can help you manage your weight in many ways . Choose high-quality joint fish oil containing NEM eggshell membrane for better results. In the new year, let's lose weight healthily and move towards our ideal body shape!

Does fish oil help joint health? The truth about omega-3 anti-inflammatory Urban people sit in the office for a long time and lack exercise, and joint pain and stiffness are becoming more and more common. Many people have heard that fish oil is good for joints, especially the anti-inflammatory effect of Omega-3 fatty acids, but is there any scientific basis for fish oil's effect on joint health? This time, we will dissect the truth about Omega-3 on joints and quote international authoritative literature to help you choose health supplements wisely. What is fish oil? What are Omega-3s good for? Fish oil is extracted from deep-sea fish (such as salmon, sardines, and mackerel). Its main components are Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, including EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) . In addition to being beneficial to cardiovascular health, studies have also shown that these two fatty acids have anti-inflammatory effects and are potentially helpful for joint health. How does fish oil help joint health? Omega-3 Anti-Inflammatory Effects Arthritis and chronic joint pain are often related to chronic inflammation in the body. According to a systematic review published in Rheumatology International in 2018, EPA and DHA in fish oil can reduce inflammatory markers in the body, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes, and help reduce joint swelling, pain and morning stiffness (Gioxari et al., 2018). Improve rheumatoid arthritis symptoms Several clinical studies have shown that long-term fish oil supplementation can help improve joint pain and mobility in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A comprehensive analysis in the British Journal of Nutrition in 2017 pointed out that fish oil can reduce the need for daily analgesics (NSAIDs) in RA patients and improve their quality of life (Senftleber et al., 2017). Limited effect on degenerative arthritis Although there is more evidence to support the efficacy of fish oil in rheumatoid arthritis, there is no consensus on its efficacy in osteoarthritis. Some studies suggest that fish oil can help reduce mild inflammation, but may not improve severe osteoarthritis. Fish oil is not a panacea, here are some tips for purchasing Check the EPA/DHA content: Choose products that clearly indicate the EPA and DHA content. Heavy metal testing: Choose brands that have been tested by a third party and have no heavy metal pollution. Moderate intake: Generally, the recommended daily intake of EPA+DHA is 500-1000 mg. If you have special health needs, you should consult a doctor first. Omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, especially EPA and DHA, do have anti-inflammatory effects and have a positive impact on some joint health problems, especially rheumatoid arthritis . However, fish oil is not a panacea. It is recommended to combine it with a balanced diet, moderate exercise and correct treatment plan. If you have any questions, you should consult a professional medical staff first. Main references Gioxari, A., Kaliora, AC, Marantidou, F., Panagiotakos, DP (2018).
