DOUSE THE INSIDE YOUR BODY

ENJOY YOUR LIFE MORE, YOU DESERVE IT!

Let’s face it, each day we are at war with the dangers of chronic inflammation. Pollution, stress, poor sleep, obesity, lack of exercise, social isolation and a pandemic have contributed to attacks against our immune system encouraging chronic inflammation. Unfortunately, most people don’t even realize they have chronic inflammation raging inside their bodies.1 Inflammation on its own is not a disease, but if left untreated can play a central role in some of the most challenging maladies of our modern world. Chronic inflammation diseases are the most significant cause of death in the world today.

Signs Of Chronic Inflammation

Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, psoriasis, eczema, asthma, allergies, joint pain, obesity and gout are just some of the conditions that are most likely due to chronic inflammation. 3 Your body’s natural response is going the wrong way.

Tips On How To Get Started

Scientists are still learning about chronic inflammation, but we do know that chronic inflammation does not stop unless you do something to combat it. A good start to conquering chronic inflammation is eating a healthy diet that includes fresh fruits and vegetables, good protein and fats and some carbohydrates. Stay away from processed and high-sodium foods, artificial sweeteners and simple carbs like white bread, sweetened cereals and most desserts. Simply put, put down ready-to-heat boxed foods that you just toss in the microwave. Instead, choose fresh ingredients as often as possible. A healthier lifestyle also includes some sort of exercise even if it’s just walking.

YOU’VE GOT THIS!

The bottom line, chronic inflammation is real and is not fake news. This is not something you have to live with. If you desire to live your life with less pain, more mobility and flexibility, you can choose a healthy lifestyle that can make a significant impact on your overall wellness and possibly your longevity.
