What you need to know about Chronic Inflammation.
Inflammation is your bodies healing response to illness, infection or injury. Red blood cells swarm to the area and fight voraciously to kill and repair any damage being done. Increased blood flow creates heat and red discoloration at the area of attack. This is the body’s natural healing response and is usually nothing to be concerned about.
Chronic Inflammation is a disease and should not be confused with your body’s normal working process to fight infection or injury. If you suffer from Chronic Inflammation your body is no longer working normally, fighting a singular infection or injury, and is instead slowly “burning” out, much like a dying star, due to excessive and uncontrolled inflammation. Your body is killing itself from the inside out.
Arthritis, an easy to see and understand malady, is a result of chronic inflammation. Other disease such as cancer and diabetes are thought to be caused by chronic inflammation as well, just not as easily diagnosed or visualized. The medical establishment is starting to understand, after many years of research and medical advancement, that chronic inflammation is most likely the major underlying cause of all chronic and advancing degenerative disease, and the main culprit in the three biggest killers; Cancer, heart disease, diabetes and diabetes related ailment.
What can we do to stop chronic inflammation? Of course there is no simply answer to this question. For most of us many things have to change in our lives to control inflammation and disease. Proper diet, exercise and a healthy lifestyle will do wonders. Remove the stressors from our life. Things like bad food, no exercise, alcohol and tobacco, all stress the body. Boost your body’s intake of healthy enzymes and supplement the enzymes we lose from over preparation and heating of our food. These are the steps you must take to finally create balance in the digestive system, support your immune system, and reduce the inflammation throughout the body.
