7 Pain-fighting Foods, Grapes, Ginger, Cherries, Fish, Soy, Coffee, Ca... - AARP

The evidence: In lab experiments at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, resveratrol protected against the kind of cartilage damage that causes back pain.
Although the research is preliminary, it can't hurt to fill up on foods rich in resveratrol, including blueberries and cranberries, which contain other powerful antioxidants as well.
