Question on Reducing Inflammation

Thank you Laurie for your question about reducing inflammation and what to use. The very best thing to reduce inflammation is Omega 3 and you can find more about this from my previous blog entry in October.

I also mentioned a couple of other herbs that are helpful in reducing inflammation. These are not as commonly found in supplement form, but you can certainly incorporate them into your daily diet. One is ginger and the other one is curry

In early October I mentioned a product that I have been using for almost a year called MMS. You can learn more about this product at my site, or you can email me for more information.

Inflammation Reducers

I was speaking a few days ago about inflammation in our bodies. I just ran across some research from John Hopkins where the researchers were looking at curry. Curry has been known for a long time as a strong antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties. The ingredient in curry that is active is turmeric from which curcuma is dervived. The curcume is really the ingredient that has an effect.

Because of it's anti-inflammatory properties, turmeric helps in any inflammatory diesease such as arthritis, heart disease, cancer and many other inflammatory diseases processes. In addition, it has been demonstrated to assist with protection of the brain where there is oxidative stress like Parkinson's Disease.

If you're looking at a turmeric product, you may see that Bromelain is also in the product. Bromelain works synergistically with turmeric to enhance the anti-inflammatory effects.
