Inflammation

Managing Inflammation

Our bodies have been built out of perfection. They were molded in such a way that everything should function well as long as their is no interference. Believe it or not, inflammation is part of the healthy function of the body. However, when people do not take care of their bodies, certain breakdown processes can happen. You may have already wondered if inflammation could be the source of the problems you’re experiencing. You may experience one or more of the following:

  • Tired all the time
  • Have aches and pains
  • Digestive issues
  • Lymph node swelling
  • A stuffy nose
  • Skin outbreaks

There are two types of inflammation, acute and chronic. Acute simply means for a short period of time, that the symptoms subside in a few days. However, chronic inflammation is degenerative in nature and can be considered to be long-term. Keep in mind that acute inflammation is considered to be good because of the body’s process reaction, while chronic is bad.

Chronic inflammation can be triggered by certain environmental factors. There are ways that it can be reduced and avoided.

What Are Some of the Common Causes of Inflammation?

  • Certain lifestyle factors — especially habitual ones — can promote inflammation.
  • Consuming high amounts of sugar and high-fructose corn syrup is particularly harmful. It can lead to insulin resistance, diabetes, and obesity.
  • Scientists have also hypothesized that consuming a lot of refined carbs, such as white bread, may contribute to inflammation, insulin resistance, and obesity.
  • What’s more, eating processed and packaged foods that contain trans fats has been shown to promote inflammation and damage the endothelial cells that line your arteries.
  • Vegetable oils used in many processed foods are another possible culprit. Regular consumption may result in an imbalance of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids, which some scientists believe may promote inflammation.
  • Excessive intake of alcohol and processed meat can also have inflammatory effects on your body.
  • Additionally, an inactive lifestyle that includes a lot of sitting is a major non-dietary factor that can promote inflammation.

Can Inflammation be Treated Naturally?

Unfortunately, chronic inflammation has no cure because it is considered to be wear-and-tear on the body. It keeps coming back, and can be triggered by certain factors. However, there are ways that it can be avoided and managed, especially when you follow these six tips:

  • Load up on anti-inflammatory foods.
  • Cut back or eliminate inflammatory foods.
  • Control blood sugar.
  • Make time to exercise.
  • Lose weight if required.
  • Manage stress.
