Not only is inflammation at the root of most "lifestyle diseases", but it's also a huge issue with both COVID-19 and the COVID vaccination.
The higher the level of inflammation in the body, the higher the risk of chronic disease.
Not only do scientists continue to find connections between chronic low-level inflammation and diseases like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes, but they are also finding that inflammation may be connected to mental disorders like depression and poor sleep.
Over the past year, you may have seen inflammation mentioned in the media in relation to COVID-19 patients. Patients with unhealthy and imbalanced immune systems were experiencing inflammatory responses that were out of control and leading to severe complications.
