Research is showing that chronic inflammation is the common factor in many diseases. Although there may never be such a single path, mounting evidence suggests a common underlying cause of major degenerative diseases. The four horsemen of the medical apocalypse — coronary artery disease, diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer's — may be riding the same steed: inflammation.

Inflammation has been found to be an underlying cause in many diseases, making it a hot topic in the health media. But what do we really know about chronic inflammation and its effects on the body?

As scientists have searched for the mysteries behind the diseases most likely to afflict us, they have alighted on one factor common to virtually all of them: inflammation. Chronic inflammation, headlines now regularly state, has a role in a host of common and often deadly diseases, including Alzheimer’s, arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and possibly even depression.

An increasing body of evidence shows that chronic inflammation causes and advances many common diseases. This opens new possibilities for treatment and therapy by blocking the inflammatory processes.

Your body is an incredibly complex and intelligent system that is designed to keep good stuff in and bad stuff out. You have a thick layer of skin and a skeletal system that protects your organs and also makes it difficult for invaders to enter. However, there is one part of your body that is the most vulnerable to damage and intrusion- and that is your gut. The root of inflammation begins with what you are putting in your mouth.

Yes, there has been much recent research that has been done by major research organizations, research that has directed the researchers to the understanding that long term inflammation is the root cause of many modern diseases, including auto-immune diseases, diabetes, heart disease, obesity and a host of others.

Further, a growing number of separate medical practitioners are coming on board with the truth that inflammation is the cause of many modern diseases.

When we hurt our body, the body responds by creating an acute inflammation in the area of the damage. This causing the effected area to subsequently to becomes red and hot. Or, if we catch a cold, we have a runny nose and fever. In both of these cases, we are experiencing acute inflammation.

The cause of this inflammation is when the body releases chemicals from our blood cells, which in turn, increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and results in the body being able to cure the affected area.

This acute inflammation is the body′s way of healing and protecting itself from things that harm it, such as infections, injuries and toxins. The body does this by releasing chemicals from the body′s white blood cells into the blood around the affected tissues so as to protect your body from those thing which would cause it harm.

To read more about these chemicals, go to the discussion of Prostaglandins on this web site.

So far, we have only discussed Acute Inflammation, however, when it comes to Chronic Inflammation, that is totally different.

Chronic Inflammation (CI) is when the acute inflammation process used by your immune system to heal and cure, gets set permanently to the on position. As a result, the body keeps the inflammation within your body working at full speed.

When this happens in your body, the inflammation will eventually damage and sicken your cells, and result in making your body unable to cure sickness. Too, when CI becomes long term, lasting months or years this will results in the failure of the body to eliminate whatever was causing the acute inflammation in the beginning.

Most commonly, CI is the result of eating certain foods that contain the inflammation causing chemicals. When these foods are digested and the blood carries the food particles throughout the body, this same food which contains the inflammation causing chemicals results in systemic inflammation.

If the person continues to eat the same inflammation causing foods, the systemic inflammations soon becomes chronic.

Chronic inflammation usually reveals itself in different ways and the most common signs for CI may not be present in every person. If you are experiencing several of the following listed signs, then you most likely have CI. The list below is not listed in any specific order other than alphabetical order.

In many instances, disease is the result of a deficiency of one nutrition or another in one′s diet. Osteoporosis results from the deficiency of vitamin D, scurvy is from the deficiency of vitamin C, even gray hair is shown to be from the deficiency of copper. Other nutritional deficiencies can cause blindness, anemia, pre-term birth, stillbirth and cretinism.

In still other diseases, the cause has been found to be rooted in poor diet. For instance, heart attack, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, Alzheimer′s and more has been linked to HFCS as the root cause. In all cases, poor nutrition from one′s diet is what the cause is connected to.

In the same manner, chronic inflammation is caused by our diet, primarily by what we eat, but also from a lack of good nutrition.

There are many foods that have been found to contain the chemicals that produce inflammation in the body when consumed. The first step in curing diabetes, or for that case, most any disease, is to remove those foods from our diet.

Therefore, to halt Chronic Inflammation and allow our bodies to resume it′s ability to heal itself, we must find out what foods cause an inflammatory response and remove them from our diet. Doing this one step will go a long way in reversing chronic inflammation and subsequently reversing diseases, including diabetes.
