Dark chocolate
Dark chocolate contains chemicals that help fight inflammation. According to a large Italian study, people who ate about one square of dark chocolate every three days had lower measures of a protein associated with inflammation than those who ate no chocolate at all.
Brown rice
Brown rice and other whole grains can help fight off the pains of irritable bowel syndrome. Whole grains are also a good source of magnesium, which appears to cut the frequency of migraines by helping to relax nerves, blood vessels, and muscles. Bonus: According to a Harvard University study, women who eat brown rice are less likely to be overweight than those who don’t.
