Inflammation and Obesity
Inflammation is running amok each day and everyday as we ingest foods designed for shelf life not human life; foods manufactured to reduce fat that comply with the ill-fated cholesterol theory based on faulty research lacking scientific fact.
Inflammation is neither complicated nor mysterious. It is your body's protective response to a germ, bacteria or foreign invader threatening your life. We cannot see the internal process but we see it externally in bruising, swelling and finally healing.
This army of warriors have scientific names such as macrophage, a type of white blood cell that assists the body's fight against bacteria and infection by engulfing and destroying invading organisms. Another is cytokines, a protein molecule secreted by cells in the immune system
They each play distinctive roles in the battle to keep infection from overwhelming your body. This process occurs naturally without your giving it a thought; a built in response that saves your life countless times throughout your years of living.
The problem is that the body detects processed foods, sugars and simple carbohydrates no differently than a germ, bacteria or foreign invader. The inflammation switch trips on, and the army rushes out to battle.
Inflammation in your heart is heart disease; in your eyes macular degeneration; in your cells obesity and in your brain Alzheimer's.
The good news is, you have the power to take control over inflammation right now.
Return to whole, real foods even a steak and an occasional dab of butter. Before you react with horror to the thought of real butter, look closely at any margarine label. Any food process that requires chemicals with ingredients you cannot name brings out the warriors to attack the foreign substance. Your body has no choice in how it responds.
