Is Your Immune System Out Of Balance? Inflammation?

THE ROUTE OF ALL DISEASE

  • Inflammation is created by your immune system
  • Acute or Chronic inflammation is an out of balance immune system
  • Learn how can you balance the immune system quickly, effectively and naturally

 

What is Inflammation? 

Your immune system’s response to damage from threatening elements or triggers is inflammation.

Whenever your body is subject to threatening elements or triggers, it may counter these attacks with inflammation, which is one of the body’s normal defence mechanisms.

When your cells or body is injured or deficient  for whatever reason, the immune system-inflammatory response moves immediately into action.  White blood cells rush to the scene of the damage  and begin  to destroy the damaged cells or invaders, while sending out chemical signals for help.

The body may produce histadine, fibrinogen, bradykinins and other chemicals as a result of these signals. All play their role (such as fibrinogen helping to clot blood).

Inflammatory processes can become counter-productive when these are over-produced or do not  stop once the healing is accomplished. This can result in over-active or hyper immunity. 

In summary: In a healthy person, the inflammatory process rids the body of this damaged, toxic or -weak  tissue. When this is process is continuous,  a chronic inflammatory process can result.  That is called chronic inflammation.

 

Inflammation – the good, the bad, the ugly

When it works as it’s supposed to, inflammation is good for your health – it’s a needed response to an negative. When the body fails to “turn off” the immune system – inflammation switch, it goes into an “always on” state. At this point, it’s out of balance, and your immune system has lost its ability to distinguish healthy tissues from diseased tissues and may start to attack healthy cells.

The other side of imbalance is when an overworked inflammatory response results in an under-active system and it is unable to offer any defence.

Inflammation  can exist anywhere in your body, including multiple sites at the same time. The symptoms often are those of continuing aches, soreness,fatigue, depression, hormone imbalances,  swelling and stiffness wherever it’s happening in the body.

When in balance, inflammation is the body’s own natural method of eliminating or reducing the stress from physical, chemical or toxic imbalances. Inflammation includes heat, fever,  loss of fluid, swelling, edema, allergies, tissue damage, muscle pain, joint pain and stiffness. Your immune system is at the root of all inflammation.

Cholesterol and Heart Health

For example, current research believes inflammation, not high cholesterol, contributes to plaque formation in blood vessels, as well as the formation of blood clots and heart attack or stroke or heart disease.    Dr. Stephen Sinatra (cardiologist) & Dr. John Bowden (Nutritionist)   informed that high cholesterol is not the culprit;  so DO continue eating those good fats like butter, cream, eggs, beef, cheese, avocados and shrimp. This part of keto diet reminds me of the Dr. Atkin’s healthy heart approach more than 30 years ago. At the time he was highly ridiculed, even though his results with his patients were impressive.

Current and past studies that have been suppressed to not interfere with the  cholesterol lowering drug marketing myth. Linking  heart disease to stress, inflammation and a diet high in carbohydrate rich foods that convert to sugar in the body have been ignored for decades by the big pharma medical model.

Lorene Benoit’s approach to this is to increase better fats like olive, coconut, borage, omega 3‘s, chia seed, flax oils and not overdo the animal fats. If you ARE going to eat animal fats, do yourself a health favour and use only wild, organic or purchase from local farmers whose sites you can visit. You need to avoid the chemical contamination that comes with any animal products raised in commercial big farma factories that use GMOs, fertilizers, antibiotics, growth hormones, and over-all inhuman treatment which affects the end product, as much as you possibly can!

Cholesterol is very important for the body, especially for  the brain, hormone production and the prevention of disease.  ” The Great Cholesterol Myth, Why lowering your cholesterol won’t prevent heart disease” is one book that explains this in detail.  Summary is to stop avoiding good fats and instead eat them in moderation. Treat trans fats, refined carbs and simple sugars like the enemies that they are. Reduce the amount of processed foods you’re eating and substitute them with fresh whole foods instead.

Diet changes are important!

For a complete guide to healthy lifestyle and optimum diet, consider Lorene Benoit’s book to heal all conditions and achieve optimum Health: “The Paw Paw Program”.

Staying healthy and feeling your best every day depends on a well-functioning immune system. That’s not so easy, given the world in which we live. Our immune systems are bombarded on a daily basis by challenges.  Recognizing these can help us minimize those we can control.

The four types of inflammation triggers are:
    • Trauma or injury, (including accidents, surgery, vaccinations*, drug reactions)
    • Emotional stress
    • Toxins from inside or outside of your body
    • Nutritional Deficiencies in elements critical for life
Some specific common triggers are:
  • SUGAR AND STRESS INCREASE INFLAMMATION
  • A poor diet, which can rob our immune system of the nutrition it needs to work well.
  • The daily effects of stress from today’s high-pressured, fast-paced lifestyle that have been shown to lower immunity over time.
  • Viruses, bacteria, parasites, chemicals and pesticides that are present in our food, water, air, drugs, vaccinations, household products, EMF & 5G radiation.
  • Aging, which may be associated with a decline in immunity, making us more susceptible to the damaging effects of environmental health threats and stress.

Q&A – Scleroderma, Dermatomyositis

Question:

I have been recently diagnosed with scleroderma and dermatomyositis. I have been trying to control my symptoms with diet, but the Drs are now telling me that my heart is being damaged from the muscle disease and I have to start taking some extremely strong medication which has a side effect of causing cancer. I, of course, do not want to go that route so I am wondering if you have any suggestions that might help.
Thank you for your time. CJ

 

Answer:

Dear CJ,
Sorry to hear about your health challenges. What the docs have to offer is totally unacceptable – choose between heart damage or cancer? No thank you!

There ARE safer and better options. For something this complex, a free 10 minutes or quick email will not likely be of much benefit, but if you send your phone number, I will contact you to see what we can do.  After that it is $1 per  minute, minimum $25. We offer these reasonable fees, as we feel good health should be accessible to everyone.

I will also email you a questionnaire to complete before our 10 mins. and you can either email it back to me, or give me the totals when we speak.

Both of these conditions, in fact most dis-ease, including cancer,  involve inflammation and immunity. This is well explained in my book. It is packed with easy to understand life style suggestions including diet, food choices, pH, recipes, exercise, emotional health and stress, so this could be an invaluable aid to help you  “work with diet”. You can read about it and order on this Paw Paw Program page.

The one general suggestion I would make for inflammation and immunity that helps SO MANY conditions is Zambroza (Canada)and Thai Go (US). With 13 herbs blended for maximum effectiveness, many people get very quick results with many conditions including those you have, fibromyalgia, arthritis, MS and cancer. Please let me know if you would like to try two months of this, as I know you would feel the difference. We can discuss getting this for you at the best price once you email your phone number and we talk.
