The Cumulative Nature Of Chronic Inflammation And What To Do About It

Acute inflammation typically occurs in response to a traumatic or infectious event. It manifests as redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which means that acute inflammation is noticeable and obvious. In contrast, chronic inflammation can be silent for years before manifesting as pain, depression and chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease. This makes the cause-effect relationships of chronic inflammation to be less obvious than that for acute inflammation.

Our bodies produce inflammatory chemicals, such as cytokines, whenever the body is stressed. When the stressor is a bee sting, insect bite, or a sprained ankle, we suffer from an acute inflammation response that is obvious to us because the body produces large amounts of cytokines and other inflammatory chemicals to create redness, swelling, heat, and pain. It turns out that the same inflammatory chemicals are produced by the body when we live a pro-inflammatory lifestyle that is characterized by overeating pro-inflammatory calories, a lack of sleep, poorly management mental/emotional stressors, and sedentary living. The difference is that less cytokines and other chemicals are produced by these lifestyle issues compared to infections and sprains, so the inflammation response is not obvious – there is no redness, swelling, and heat.

This is a very problematic situation because it means that people can live a pro-inflammatory lifestyle for many years before pain, depression, and chronic diseases emerge. The video embedded in this blog, was designed to help people conceptualize the nature of lifestyle-induced chronic inflammation. Making matters worse is the fact that people tend to become habituated to their pro-inflammatory lifestyles, which causes people to resist engaging in a new anti-inflammatory lifestyle. Chapter 9 in the first DeFlame Diet book contains a chart of many easy-to-measure inflammatory markers that can and should be tracked.

DeFlame Diet | Anti Inflammatory Program

Dr. Seaman coined the term "DeFlame" as a simple educational tool to help better understand the benefits of replacing pro-inflammatory foods with anti-inflammatory vegetables, fruit, nuts, and roots/tubers. He first identified that diet promotes inflammation based on research published in the 1970s and 1980s. Most have only begun to see this relationship in recent years. In contrast, Dr Seaman has written multiple articles and chapters on this topic over the past 25 years.

The DeFlame Diet is about eating anti-inflammatory foods to turn off the chronic disease-promoting "flame" created by pro-inflammatory foods. This is the first nutrition book for the general public that delves into inflammation in great detail, yet in a fashion that is understandable. Readers will never be confused again about what foods we should and should not be eating.

Osteoarthritis Should Be Viewed As “Heart Disease” Of The Joints

The view we should take is as follows: osteoarthritis is “heart disease” of the joints and heart disease is “osteoarthritis” of arteries.

The difficulty that most have when considering this fact is that, to the naked eye, joints and arteries are very different structures. While that is true, it should not detract one from focusing on the chemistry of each condition, which is a shared state of chronic inflammation that is essentially identical.

It is generally known by many people that type 2 diabetes is a risk factor for heart disease. The reason for this is that diabetes is an inflammatory state, which predisposes one to develop related inflammatory diseases, such as heart disease. It is not well known, but equally factual, that people with diabetes are also more likely to develop osteoarthritis (1).

This relationship between diabetes and OA is obvious and becoming more well known, yet it is still difficult for many to conceptualize that OA is heart disease of joints. The fact that must be embraced is that if the inflammatory state of diabetes promotes both heart disease and OA, it means that they have similar causes and similar pro-inflammatory chemistry changes.

Obesity increases coronavirus severity | Health Promotion Consultants

It is a problem that we are not being told by our news outlets that obesity increases coronavirus severity. The same holds true for obesity and the severity of the annual flu virus, which is also never explained to us by our various news outlets. Why is this? I cannot say for sure, but I do know that reducing disease expression is not in the best interest of Big Pharma as it is called.

How to protect yourself against the DEADLY Coronavirus | Health promotion consultants florida

People who are "pre-flamed" are far more likely to develop severe complications and death from the coronavirus. It is important to know that the same fact holds true for the seasonal flu. I did this video to reduce the stress and anxiety that is emerging in the population from the drama-filled news reports about the coronavirus, which are lacking the proper context that people need to understand their risk status.

The ALL Meat Diet | Advanced Health Consultants

In a certain sector of society that is interested in diet, the “all meat” or “carnivore” diet has emerged as a fad diet that is both embraced and criticized. Not surprisingly, those that embrace and criticize the all meat diet, are missing a couple of key points that need to be understood.

Point 1 – For modern day people, it is difficult to conceptualize how difficult it was to acquire food in pre-modern times. For my entire life, handfuls of food have been readily available. The same holds true for my parents who grew up in the 1930s.

Before modern times, humans had to “exercise” for their food – foraging for vegetation or hunting animals of the land, water and air. If you were from the Arctic Circle, your food options would be entirely different compared to those living in Arizona, which would be different than those living in Florida, which would be different than those living in Peru, which would be different than those living in the Amazon, etc., etc., etc.

Breast Health Book | Breast Health Promotion

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women. It is estimated that 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Unfortunately, most women actually pursue breast cancer expression without knowing it. The DeFlame Diet for Breast Health and Cancer Prevention outlines the common pro-inflammatory dietary factors that promote breast cancer, which should be eliminated from the diet, along with strategies for DeFlaming your body. A DeFlamed body is at less risk for developing all chronic diseases, including breast cancer.
