Inflammation

Inflammation is a common cause of pain and many other medical problems that we experience in Western society. For example, anything that ends in the letters "-itis" means that the problem is inflammatory. This includes things like arthritis, tendonitis, bursitis and appendicitis.

Much of our increased tendency to inflammation occurs because of the high amounts of animal fats relative to fish and vegetable oils in our diets. Increasing fish, nuts and seeds, berries, free range chicken and grass fed meats, spices and herbs, and green leafy vegetables can be a very helpful start if you want to decrease inflammation.

In addition to dietary changes, natural remedies can be helpful in settling down inflammation. These include antioxidants and fish oil. Many herbals such as willow bark, boswellia, and tart cherry (see End Fatigue Pain Formula) are also excellent, and can be as effective as Motrin and Vioxx—but much safer! Natural therapies are also more likely to help heal the body over time, while also decreasing pain.

One last important point to remember is that not all of your symptoms are coming from the inflammation. Many inflammatory problems can cause a secondary fibromyalgia, which may be causing most of the symptoms. Fortunately, fibromyalgia can now be effectively treated. If you have widespread pain, fatigue, and insomnia, look for and treat the associated fibromyalgia.
