18. Red Wine

We saved the best for last. It is a common misconception that all forms of alcohol should be avoided when you have arthritis, but based on a variety of studies, red wine is actually good for you. This is all thanks to resveratrol. It is a compound that is quite effective as an anti-inflammatory agent. Resveratrol is also present in grapes, so if you’re not a big drinker, you can just eat fresh grapes.

Having a glass or two regularly can reduce the risks of getting arthritis. But you must keep in mind, moderation is the key. Having too much wine will cause dehydration which something you want to avoid.
