"There is no escaping the fact that the more we consume prepared and processed foods, the more we trip the inflammation switch little by little each day. The human body cannot process, nor was it designed to consume, foods packed with sugars and soaked in omega-6 oils."
- Dr. Dwight Lundell, MD, Heart Surgeon, Mesa, AZ
|

"Medicine should not be a pharmaceutical biased, disease identification model. It should rather be focused on identifying the cause of disease and repairing this cause rather than just treating the symptoms of disease."
- Dr. Nathan Morris, MD, Indian Creek Family Health, College Corner, OH

"Unfortunately, chronic inflammation typically will not produce symptoms until actual loss of function occurs somewhere. This is because chronic inflammation is low-grade and systemic, often silently damaging your tissues over an extended period of time. This process can go on for years without you noticing, until a disease suddenly sets in."
- Dr. Joseph Mercola, Osteopathic Physician, Chicago, IL

"We often make medicine more complex than it really is. That's because the underlying cause of chronic disease is increased inflammation. What we see as heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer's are not different diseases, but simply different manifestations of long-term damage caused by a continued inflammatory attack on your organs."
- Dr. Barry Sears, Marblehead, MA, author of "The Zone"
|
"We are seeing an epidemic of inflammatory diseases. In fact nearly every modern disease ??? everything from autoimmune diseases, heart disease, and cancer to obesity, diabetes, and dementia ??? is caused by inflammation!
These chronic diseases affect 125 million Americans. That means in the average family of three, at least one person has a chronic disease caused by inflammation."
- Mark Hyman, MD, The UltraWellness Center, Lenox, MA

"Doctors are trained in an ineffective methodology. They look at how the human body works in a way that is inconsistent with reality. The therapeutics they're trained in are juvenile, old fashioned, outdated, ineffective, expensive and are completely out of synch with what it really means to be a human being. With Restless Legs Syndrome they are not fixing the problem, they are managing the problem, poorly. Their patients are suffering needlessly."
- Dr. Peter Glidden, Naturopathic Physician, Chicago

"Acupuncture is one effective therapy that can help reduce chronic inflammation, in addition to yoga and movement therapies such as Qi Gong and other gentle exercises. Stress relief measures such as meditation and deep breathing are also important, and of course, a healthy fresh diet, good hydration and proper supplementation are essential."
- Dr. Isaac Eliaz, MD, Amitabha Clinic & Healing Center, Sebastopol, CA
