Inflammation is one of the most common underlying disease processes that we know of.
Therefore if you prevent inflammation you are preventing chronic disease.
Because inflammation is heavily influenced by diet, every year I invite patients to join my five week group Inflammation Detox so look for your invitation coming soon in September!

Muscle strains and prolonged muscle soreness after working out, as well as menopause symptoms such as insomnia and hot flashes, are something I didn’t link to inflammation. It is disheartening to discover that muscle workouts actually cause inflammation. I guess as we age, we need to convince ourselves that certain forms of exercise that are more gentle on the body, still can achieve the desired outcomes of strength, muscle definition and fat loss. I have a tough time with that one.
