Chronic Inflammation
"The Silent Killer"
Inflammation, the body’s natural immunity and healing response, when unchecked causes damage to the body. Acute inflammation such as redness and swelling ought to resolve when the trauma or illness has healed. However contributing factors such as diet or radiation can cause inflammation to become chronic.
Chronic inflammation can have many possible causes, and can show little outwardly. Yet it contributes to states of illness in the body. So overlooked is inflammation as a contributing factor to disease, that it has been dubbed “the silent killer”. One major cause of inflammation is stress, so we would all be benefitted to learn how to resolve inflammation in the body.
MedicineCrow was proud to host Prashanti de Jager recently for a talk on this subject. Healing Chronic Inflammation: Causes and Herbal Treatments was an excellent class, and revealed Prashanti’s exhaustive knowledge on the subject, referencing both contemporary science and classical Ayurveda as he described how to identify and treat chronic inflammation.
