People often regard arthritis as a disease of the elderly. However, the fact of the matter is, you cannot ever be too young for it. More than 50 million people in the country have arthritis, and over 300,000 of these are kids. Fortunately, there are effective ways to relieve inflammation and other symptoms of arthritis—one of them being diet. Here is a list of four green smoothies for arthritis that you can try at home.

1. Guava and strawberry smoothie
This smoothie makes for a delicious summer drink, and relies on spinach for its green color. It is full of vitamins and minerals and helps you combat joint pain. It is also loaded with vitamin C, which helps overcome inflammation. To prepare this smoothie, you will need a cup of strawberries, two frozen bananas, half a cup of guava, six ounces of water, and three cups of spinach. Blend all of these ingredients in a blender until smooth.

2. Kiwi and kale smoothie
Kale is a rich source of magnesium. It ensures calcium absorption in the body. It is, indeed, an excellent home remedy to overcome arthritis pain. It also helps ward off compounds that cause inflammation in the body. Grab two peeled and sliced kiwis, a peeled orange, seven ounces of water, 100 grams of chopped kale, and a neatly peeled and chopped mango. Put all of these in a blender until the mixture acquires a smooth consistency.

3. Celery and ginger smoothie
Ginger is known for its immunity-boosting properties, and it works as an effective treatment for cold and cough. It is a pungent herb, which helps overcome inflammation and blood sugar levels in the body. On the other hand, celery does wonders to help you combat the inflammation in your body. Its juice is hugely recommended for people dealing with arthritis. Blended celery can flush excess uric acid, which is responsible for gout-related pain, out of the body. This smoothie will require a handful of spinach, half a teaspoon of fresh ginger, a cubed apple, half a pineapple (chopped), two celery stalks, a teaspoon of turmeric powder, and some lime zest.

4. Grapefruit and pineapple smoothie
As far as treating arthritis pain is concerned, pineapple can be a phenomenal inclusion in your diet. Pineapple is packed with bromelain, an enzyme that helps treat osteoarthritis. For the preparation of the smoothie, you need a frozen banana, half a grapefruit, a cup of cubed pineapple, six ounces of water, half a cucumber, and half a cup of fresh cilantro.
