Inflammation – Can it Happen To You?

Time Magazine wrote an article on the Secret Killer and the reason they called it the Secret Killer is because many people may have inflammation building up inside them and they don’t even know it.    In the article which you can read HERE, Time Magazine talks about how the body attacks itself.  Our bodies use inflammation as a natural defense but chronic inflammation is what can cause poor health that may lead to serious diseases.  In the magazine, they also talk about physicians treating chronic inflammation who specialize in rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, lupus and other autoimmune disorders. For decades these diseases have provided the clearest example of a body at war with itself. But the spark that fuels their internal destruction doesn’t come from excess cholesterol deposits or a stubborn bacterial infection. Instead, in a bizarre twist of fate, the body’s supersophisticated, learned immunological defenses mistakenly direct an inflammatory attack against healthy cells in such places as the joints, nerves and connective tissue.

When you read this article, you’ll see that it was written 5 years ago connecting the dots revealing the surprising links between inflammation and diseases.

But what can you do?  Well, in today’s unhealthy world, there is actually a healthy solution.  Nopalea.  To find out more about Nopalea, go to:

Oh, and I almost forgot to answer the question – Inflammation – can it happen to you?  Well, unless you live in a bubble, there’s a good chance it can because you are exposed to toxins on a daily basis from the food you eat to the air you breathe to the things you touch and add on to that the stress you encounter on a daily basis.  If you don’t have any health issues now (and I hope that’s true), you can also benefit from Nopalea because it has antioxidants and it will help to boost your immune system.

Inflammation – The Secret Killer

Many of you aware of the infomercials that are now airing on TriVita and the ability to acquire customers and affiliate members from the company would expect me to be blogging like crazy about this amazing new way of building a business with TriVita in addition to sharing their fantastic high quality products.  But I think more focus needs to be on inflammation.  The tagline with Nopalea is if Inflammation is the problem, Nopalea is the solution.

What does that mean?  What is Inflammation?  Why is it called the Secret Killer?  Well first of all,  many people don’t realize the links between inflammation and diseases.  Now, what you need to know is inflammation is unavoidable.  Our bodies use inflammation as a natural defense against toxins.  Too much inflammation however, can cause adverse health conditions.  Though you may not see inflammation or even feel inflammation, it may be silently burning within your body right now.  Over time, this collective damage can spell trouble for the immediate area of inflammation as well as your overall health.  Hence, the Secret Killer.  By making healthy lifestyle changes and modifications, you can help reduce inflammation in your body.  And, it simultaneously improves your overall health!

Let’s take this example of how Nopalea can help:

First you have a healthy cell

The cell is attacked by toxins and free radicals (which we are exposed to on a daily basis)

Now here’s where Nopalea helps

The betalains in Nopalea help the body reduce inflammation and detoxify

Then the cell returns to a normal healthy state.

What areas can be affected by inflammation?  Here are some areas that might help you to better understand the connection:

  • Heart – Inflammation is believed to contribute to the formation of plaque in blood vessels, as well as the formation of blood clots.  When these blood clots break free into the blood, they can block blood flow to the brain or heart, resulting in a heart attack or stroke.
  • Brain – Inflammation plays a role in Alzheimer’s disease, yet scientists are still uncertain what that role is. However, one theory is that inflammation kicks into gear because of the plaques and tangles in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients. In trying to solve the problem, inflammation just makes matters worse.
  • Joints – Long-term inflammation of the joints can result in destroyed ligaments and tendons, damage to joint cartilage and bone and even bone erosion. This leads to pain, deformity and an inability to perform daily tasks – drastically affecting quality of life.
  • Mouth and gums – Although dental researchers once thought bacterial infections caused gum disease, it is now thought that some of the more severe symptoms of gum disease are attributable to inflammation. The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, part of the National Institutes of Health, reports that inflammation can even break down bone and connective tissue that keep the teeth in place.
  • Emotional health – Inflammation may even play a role in your emotions! Scientists at the University of Illinois, Urbana- Champaign discovered that an enzyme secreted by the immune system caused inflammation-related, depression-like symptoms in mice. Because inflammation is linked with conditions often accompanied by depression – such as diabetes, cancer and heart disease – researchers expect that this study will provide insight into chronic inflammation’s role in depression.
  • Cancer cell growth – Although researchers haven’t discovered the exact mechanism of inflammation’s role in cancer, they believe it encourages cancer growth. According to the American Cancer Society, inflammation creates just the right conditions for cancer cells to grow and multiply.

What can you do?  First, try Nopalea – it tastes great and can help you on a daily basis to reduce inflammation and detoxify your body.  But here are other things you can do to promote a healthier lifestyle:

1. If you smoke, quit.

2. Practice stress management techniques such as deep breathing to help manage your stress load.

3. Simply being overweight can increase inflammation. Start a sensible diet and exercise plan – it will help with inflammation and your overall sense of health and well-being.

4. Exercise at least 30 minutes per day, three to five days per week.

5. Cut out unhealthy food choices – some of which can actually contribute to inflammation: trans fats, refined carbohydrates, processed foods.

6. Make anti-inflammatory foods a staple in your diet.

7. Practice good oral hygiene: brush after every meal and floss once a day.

8. and of course, take Sonoran Bloom™ Nopalea™
