This app is all about inflammation | Some of our bodies are already on fire on the inside, and some of our habits are the same as throwing petrol on that fire.
That's what I will explain today - How to put that fire out, or at least get it back under control.
Just to recap, inflammation is the body's biological response of attempting to protect itself. It aims to remove harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells and irritants; this is the first step of the healing process.
Inflammation triggers a response from the immune system. Initially inflammation is beneficial as it is used for protection but a lot of the time inflammation can lead to further inflammation (Chronic) which leads to big health problems.
The five signs to look out for inflammation are pain, redness, heat, swelling and loss of function!
What causes the inflammation in the first place?
Chronic infections
Obesity
Environmental toxins (food, water & air)
Physiological stress
Intensive /endurance training
Physical trauma
Age
Autoimmune disease
If you notice that in the brackets for environmental toxins is food.
In this article I want to discuss the anti inflammatory diet.
Every food we eat gets a response from the body.
There are certain foods contained in many people's diet today which lead to an increase in inflammation. You can probably guess what kinds of foods these are (fake foods, fried foods, processed foods, refined carbs, coffee, alcohol).
The anti inflammatory diet contains many foods, which I have recommended for other purposes which help to stop and reduce inflammation.
It is a very natural way of improving your health and recovering from illness or injury.
Without inflammation to worry about you will be a lot healthier and less at risk of picking up some very harmful illnesses in the long run.
So what makes up the anti inflammation diet?
This diet is made up of a variety of natural foods packed with nutritional value. There are no processed foods and everything is healthy and wholesome.
