Inflammation
Inflammation is actually the body’s immune response, so it is a crucial part of the healing process. However, long-term inflammation can do more harm than good.
Never, ever ignore inflammation, urges Talia Segal Fidler, MS, HHC, AADP, nutritionist at The Lodge at Woodloch, as it is the root cause for most health conditions. “From food allergies to autoimmune condition, heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s, to name a few,” she points out. Also, depending on the severity of the inflammation, patients could feel pain, stiffness, discomfort, distress, and even agony.
Fidler encourages you to find the root cause of the inflammation and treat it, “hopefully naturally, by changing eating habits and lifestyle, before taking medications that may just cover up the condition without going to the root cause of it.”
