Exploring Blue Zones and Longevity

Inflammation is a big word, a big human metabolic response, that yields both positives and negatives to the human body. On one hand, acute inflammation is a survival mechanism to drive the immune system to come to the aid of our body's injuries & illnessess. Inflammation is a response that literally saves our lives & heals our wounds. But, if it becomes chronic and the balance of inflammation is not brought back to homeostasis, then chronic inflammation will drive disease and break down cellular health through free radicals & oxidative stress. Inflammation is consdered the root of all disease from obesity, to arthritis, to cancer, endometriosis, autoimmune diseases, fatty liver and so many more health issues that plague the human person. Symptoms of inflammation include; digestive inflammation, food intolerances, aches & pains, fatigue, skin rashes & allergies, and many more. Jamie has been working with her FIAT Hormone Health Coaches on the root of inflammation in the GUT, and she is leading us today in this great discussion about what we can do to help keep the balance in our own body's and drive out inflammation that is chronic and unwanted. We will look at the GUT as a primary source and driver of inflammation since the gut through intestinal permeability (leaky gut) leads to inflammation. We will also discuss practical ways to reduce inflammation in your life, through nutrition, lifestyle, antioxidants and breathing.
