Inflammation is not all bad. It’s simply the immune system’s response to injury and infection. In fact, inflammation helps heal, repair and protect our body.
The problem is when it becomes chronic, gets out of control, and never stops.
Inflammation is a form of stress, and the body won’t release weight when it’s under stress.
Chronic inflammation leads to chronic disease:
* Heart disease
* Stroke
* Diabetes,
* Alzheimer’s
* Cancer
* Obesity
Chronic inflammation often comes from your gut - the gut plays a massive role in regulating your immune system because it houses a large portion of your body’s immune cells and trillions of microbes (the gut microbiome). When the balance of these microbes is disrupted—a state called dysbiosis—or when the intestinal lining becomes too permeable (often discussed as intestinal permeability or “leaky gut”), problems can arise.
Until this chronic condition is addressed, chronic inflammation is chronic.
Other Sources of Chronic Inflammation:
While the gut is a major contributor, chronic inflammation can also stem from:
* Belly fat: Excess visceral fat releases pro-inflammatory signaling proteins (cytokines).
* Persistent Infections: Low-grade, hidden, or recurring viral and bacterial infections elsewhere in the body.
* Environmental Toxins: Long-term exposure to pollutants, heavy metals, or certain chemicals.
* Chronic Stress: Prolonged activation of the stress response alters immune function and promotes inflammation.
Bodyglow is a program that addresses your chronic inflammation, so that you can reduce the ‘noise’ in your body, finally heal, and get your glow back!
