What foods are better for osteoarthritis in old age?

>>>Recommendation: The elderly should choose carefully when eating fruits.”

　　Elderly people suffering from osteoarthritis should increase their intake of foods rich in antioxidant nutrients on the basis of ensuring balanced nutrition. This is also the most overlooked point.
　　
　　Osteoarthritis patients should have a light diet and eat less foods high in oxalic acid. Because the sodium content of salty foods is too high, it is easy to combine with calcium and eliminate it from the body, leading to the loss of calcium. And try to eat less foods high in oxalic acid, such as spinach, tomato , sweet potatoes, celery, etc., oxalic acid can combine with calcium to form calcium oxalate, reducing calcium absorption. Experts also remind you that it is best to eat fruit half an hour after a meal. If you eat it right away, it is also not conducive to calcium absorption.
　　
　　According to the determination of some experts in my country, lotus root has the strongest antioxidant capacity among vegetables, followed by ginger, rape, cowpea, taro, garlic, spinach, beans, broccoli, etc.; among fruits, hawthorn has the highest antioxidant capacity, as well as guava, kiwi, mulberry, strawberry, tangerine, orange, lemon, etc., and the antioxidant capacity of these fruits is higher than the above-mentioned vegetables, so it is recommended that patients with osteoarthritis can choose to eat more in daily life.
