Inflammation
There are two approaches to maintaining a healthy and effective inflammatory response: First, an appropriately timed and placed acute inflammatory process is required in response to infection and trauma and for initiating the healing process. Second, once the benefit of the acute inflammatory response has passed, the molecular basis of the response returns to its pre-inflammatory state, rather than smoldering into a low-grade chronic inflammation state.
Here are some specific steps related to lifestyle and personalized nutrition that can be implemented to support a healthy and effective inflammatory response and combat the chronicity of inflammation:
-
Follow an anti-inflammatory dietary approach—variety of whole, minimally processed foods rich in fiber, brightly colored fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants and phytonutrients, and adequate intake of high-quality proteins and healthy fats, especially long-chain omega-3 fatty acids; some food plans avoid or limit gluten, soy, nightshades, dairy products, and sugars.
-
Limit exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) like obesogens whenever possible
-
Promote healthy gut barrier function through intake of prebiotics and probiotics
-
Reduce oxidative damage to cells through sufficient or increased intake of antioxidants such as vitamins Synergy "C", Vitamin Synergy "E" and phytonutrients
-
Consider a personalized supplementation plan with anti-inflammatory actions in the body, such as omega-3s EPA and DHA, curcumin and CoQ10.
-
Consider a personalized supplementation plan that includes targeted nutraceuticals that support the resolution of inflammation, like SPMs, to target unresolved inflammation and turn off the damaging effects of long-term, low-grade chronic inflammatory pathways
