How What You Eat Affects Your Feet

A well-rounded diet does wonders for keeping your feet healthy. Eating certain foods, including those containing omega-3 fats, can reduce foot inflammation and minimize pain. Making proper nutrition part of your everyday life will also help ward off health conditions known to cause foot and ankle problems.

Losing Weight Can Also Help Your Feet

When an increased amount of weight and stress is placed on the foot, there's a host of problems. Being overweight — even by 25 pounds — heightens your chance of developing tendon inflammation, inflammation in the plantar fascia (known to cause heel pain), and osteoarthritis, as well as problems in the arches and tendons in the feet and ankle.
