Inflammation and the Immune System


Some Random Thoughts About Inflammation and the Immune System...

I have been thinking a lot about inflammation and the immune system lately. Here are some thoughts and ideas to think about.

Your greatest defense for your body is a healthy immune system. How do you get a healthy immune system? Many things impact your immune system.  What you put in your body affects your immune system. It’s really important to eat healthy and clean to have a strong immune system.

I think carbonation, preservatives, processed foods, certain medications, sugars and teeth problems cause inflammation in our bodies.  With all these things causing inflammation I wonder if it is a cause of heart attacks besides cholesterol.  The body is just not happy being inflamed with all the junk we put in it.

I also wonder if inflammation is a cause of cancer  because the immune system goes down and inflammation goes up. It is an interesting relationship between the immune system and inflammation.  I just ask you to think about it.  Hmmm…
