The bear mention of such words as inflammation, for example, makes people feel shudder of unease because the most immediate associations that spring to one’s mind are extremely aching muscles, joints, undesired and troubling swelling and ultimately, even quite serious mobility loss. In addition, what many people are perhaps also unaware of is that pain and swellings are not the only undesired consequences. What have numerous research studies revealed is that inflammation, especially the one chronic in nature, also holds the power to induce numerous rather serious ailments such as heart disease, diabetes, certain varieties of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease among others.
Determining factors
The intensity and the overall “volume” of inflammation that affects one’s body are known to be variable in nature, and they are also determined by numerous factors such as, for instance, the person’s level of activity, time a person in question spends sleeping, the amount of stress, and last but not the least, the food varieties that one eats. Important fact to always bear in mind is that all the aforementioned factors are accumulative in nature, which means that with the increase in their overall levels, there also occurs an overall increase in intensity and severity of the ailment in question.
Tracing and localisation
Deemed as one of aggravating circumstances is that, in the earlier phases of one’s life, such levels as the ones mentioned in the previous passage tend to be fairly low, thus making a person in question completely unaware of the existence of inflammation altogether. This is possible due to the fact that, during this period, our body is fully capable of bringing the inflammation under complete control, and this lasts for a specific period of time. But, once a person in question reaches forties, this has the tendency to change, which comes to most people as a sudden and extremely unpleasant surprise.
Steps to take
In case something like this happens to a person, he/she should immediately visit a doctor and have the C-Reactive Protein levels checked. Due to the nature of a procedure, a person might have to be quite persistent and even demand to have it performed. Once this accomplished, a blood sample will be taken from the person, which is then to be evaluated by either a person’s doctor or professional dietitian who will then aid a person in designing the most suitable diet plan. The importance of this lies in the fact that the food varieties a person consumes play one of the most vital roles in terms of a most effective inflammation control.
