What You Need To Know About Inflammation
Inflammation is not a disease. Inflammation is best described as a defense mechanism tolimit tissue damage. It can be caused by infection, injuryor immune conditions. In each case, the inflammation is theresult of your immune system responding to another event. When such an event occurs, a special cell called aneutrophil targets the damaged cells and releases aproinflammatory cytokine ( a natural substance used by thebody for immune regulation ). This attracts more neutophiland begins a cycle of communication between neutrophil andmacrophage ( a type of cell in your immune system that worksto protect against infection and from toxins ). Thesesignals are generated using structures composed ofglyconutrients. This cycle would apply to the inflammationof the cells in a vein, the thyroid, intestine, liver, amuscle, the scalp, or any other collection of cells that aregiven a name. When we take a drug or an herbal to "stop inflammation," weare really interrupting the natural process where the bodyis sending out signals to other helper cells to say "Hey,come deal with this." We are also interrupting the naturalprocess where the body is sending signals to us saying "takeit easy, we have something that needs care." Certainlyinflammation can be a discomfort and an annoyance but theimportance of inflammation as part of the immune responsecannot be overstated. After the immune cells have cleared out the source of theinflammation, additional immune cells begin a clean upprocess and engulf dead neutrophils and other cellulardebris. If the process is successful, the body will returnto normal levels of cells and mediators. Inflammation is affected by diet in that certain nutrientsplay a role in the normal inflammation process. Variousglyconutrients are used to construction glycoforms forsignaling in the body and antioxidants bind to free radicalswhich may either be the source, or by product of, thedamage. In summary, inflammation is a normal cellular process. Yourbody induced inflammation in response to something else.While the process can lead to discomfort, it should beunderstood that medications and herbs which mask theinflammation by interfering with it may also be interferingwith the underlying immune response. Work with your doctorto manage your symptoms in the short term but then alsofactor in diet and lifestyle changes to help support thenatural processes of the body. Every cell in your body hasthe natural ability to restore, protect and defend itself.Don't just turn them off for good. Studies have shown thatconcentrations of glyconutrients can have a very beneficialeffect on inflammation. While the processes are still beingstudied, non-toxic glyconutrient supplements have beenavailable to the public for over 10 years.
