4.Manage your stress. Stress creates stress hormones which cause... you guessed it, inflammation. For example, the adrenals secrete excess cortisol when you are under stress. In proper amounts, cortisol is an anti-inflammatory. Too much cortisol suppresses the immune system and leads to more inflammation. It's unrealistic to think we can eliminate all stress from our lives. But you can address stressful conditions to make them more manageable. And you can also take steps to reduce ongoing stress build up. Get a massage. Massage reduces stress hormones and can change your perspective on life. Regular meditation brings calmness. Avoid neuro-stimulants like caffeine and sugar that will stress you even more.

5.Allergies create inflammation. Allergies are an immune system response and can cause inflammatory reactions including anaphylaxes, (swelling, hives, inability to breathe) sinusitis, bronchitis, arthritis, congestion and many other symptoms. Get reliable allergy testing and either stay away from offending foods or employ a rotation diet.

6.The most obvious cause of inflammation is an injury. You can see the redness, swelling, and feel the pain. Rest, ice, compression and elevation are the usual recommendations. If you want to significantly speed up the healing process and decrease your time out of commission, use systemic enzymes. They reduce swelling, pain, and help the immune system to keep inflammation under control.

If you follow these suggestions, you will have a head start on reducing pain and future disease.
