There is an ongoing battle within many of us between inflammatory and pro oxidative process with respect to anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant processes. Inflammation is redness and swelling, we sometimes see after injury. Oxidation is like rusting that occurs with the metal or the browning that occurs with an apple that has been sliced ​​and left in the open air. We need both these to fight infection. However, inflammatory and oxidative compounds can become overwhelming and can cause havoc when not contained. Like a fire smoldering inflammation and oxidation can do everything wrong and is the basis for chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Avoiding these diseases and slow the aging process hinges to be able to suppress these inflammatory / oxidative process.

excess fat in the body is more than just a place to store calories. Researchers have shown that fat releases many inflammatory products that can harm the body as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Unfortunately Excess fat increases inflammation and in turn increased inflammation can cause the accumulation of more fat. We must somehow break this cycle and to balance the ability of the body to fight against infection while avoiding the damage of inflammation in progress. There are several things you can do to decrease the inflammatory processes / oxidative in the body. I will list each of them and explain their role.

Eating foods that are considered to have anti-inflammatory properties and high antioxidant and avoiding foods that would increase the inflammatory and oxidative processes is the key to control of the region. Foods raising sugar levels in the blood and insulin levels are inflammatory in nature. Foods that reduce oxidation and cool the flames of inflammation that are whole foods in nature

anti-inflammatory foods :. Fruits, vegetables, vegetables, seeds and beans. Foods that are colorful and foods that contain called omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation. Cold water fish like wild salmon and sardines are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. These foods provide phytochemicals that will decrease inflammation in the body

inflammatory foods. refined processed foods, breads, cakes, pies, donuts, cookies, crackers, white rice, fries, and pasta. These foods are toxic to your body causing inflammation / oxidation and should be avoided entirely. You would not have a cigarette, knowing that it is bad for you, so why would you eat foods that promote inflammation in your body

Year :? Consistent moderate exercise boosts antioxidants in the body that help fight against inflammation. Anti-inflammatory agents such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase oxidizing disengage aid of free radicals in the body. The following researchers more than 4,000 men and women with mean age of 10 years have shown that, independent of BMI or weight, those who have completed 20 minutes of moderate exercise each day reduces markers of inflammation of at least 12%.
