What is inflammation?There are two types of inflammation: acute and chronic body. Acute inflammation is short-term, and a healthy response when fending off bacteria, viruses, parasites or injury. Some typical symptoms are localized heat, redness, swelling, pain and loss of function. This is the body’s immune system reacting to fight off foreign bacteria. This typically lasts a few days to weeks. Chronic inflammation is a constant low-grade level of inflammation. It’s a result of exposure to environmental chemicals/toxins, high stress, a sedentary lifestyle, sleep deprivation, genetic factors, or a diet high in processed foods. Instead of a short-term, localized, site-specific area that the...

Our lungs are capable of incredible feats as they are vital body parts. The average adult can take in as much as 6 litres of air and breathe a total of 11,000 litres every day. Besides being able to inflate and deflate like balloons, the internal surface of the lungs can stretch up to 100 square meters when fully expanded. The lungs absorb oxygen from the air we breathe so that our body could make use of it. Without oxygen, we couldn’t possibly survive! It’s quite unfortunate that our lungs are so easily abused.

The Importance of the Lymphatic System As the largest circulatory system in the body, the lymphatic system plays an integral role in digestion, detoxification and the delivery of nutrients, like fats, for stable, lasting energy. The lymph starts as small finger-like projections, called lacteals, which run along the inside of the digestive tract. The lacteals absorb and transport both nutritional and toxic fats, lipids and proteins off the intestinal tract and into the lymph surrounding the intestines. Undigested proteins, like gluten and casein, along with toxic fats, can take a major toll on the lymph. When these are not completely...

Occasionally the yeast multiplies uncontrollably, causing pain and inflammation. Candidiasis may affect the skin. This includes the external surface skin and the skin of the vagina, the penis, and the mouth. Candidiasis may also infect the blood stream or internal organs such as the liver...
