Inflammation Is NOT the Enemy - This Is! Part 4b

6. HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE- Keeping Blood Flowing

We were taught that “High blood pressure causes disease.”

FitnHealthy Truth-High blood pressure is the body’s compensating mechanism to push oxygen through inflamed, stiff blood vessels.

It is trying to maintain the process in which blood carries oxygen and nutrients to body tissues and organs and transports waste products of cellular metabolism away. to vital organs.

7. COPD - Inflammation as Defense

Chronic irritation (smoke, pollution) leads to immune system ramps up defense leads to thickened airways, which creates mucus production which then leads to a protective attempt to trap toxins.

Over time, the adaptation becomes clogged & broken.

8. AUTOIMMUNITY - An Overprotective Immune System

There's over 100 Auto-Immune Diseases where the Body attacks it's own tissues.

We were taught - “The immune system is attacking you.”

FitnHealthy Truth- The immune system is trying to protect you from something it perceives as dangerous (toxins, microbes, viruses, implants, food particles).

When the stressors persist, the immune system becomes confused and overreactive and attacks itself thinking it's an invader.

9. KIDNEY DISEASE - Scarring as Containment

Inflammation damages filtration units leading to scarring where the body is trying to prevent further injury to delicate tissues. Then it can't filter poisons properly anymore.

10. OSTEOARTHRITIS- Joint Inflammation to Stabilize Weak Tissue

Systemic Inflammation leading to Cartilage breakdown leading to more inflammation which increases to protect the joint leading to thickened bone and then fluid are added to the region in attempts to stabilize.
