EP 43: Fatigue, joint pain, frequent illness? Alarm

MDX MenVerse Podcast EP 43: Fatigue? Joint Pain? Frequently Sick? Malignant Alarm of 'Silent Inflammation' in Body

Have you ever felt tired in a lot of sleep? No cause or muscle pain? Or particularly easily sick? These symptoms may seem typical of hard workers, but in fact, they may be "warning signs" from the body that are saying that there is a "silent fire" smoldering inside. That is a condition called Chronic Inflammation.

It is a silence that does not show signs of violence like a knife wound, but gradually destroys our health from within, and is the root of many serious diseases in the long run. Today we will come to know this silent killer and learn how to "put out the fire" before it spreads too late to solve it.

Inflammation: "friends" who become "enemies"

Usually, "inflammation" is a good and necessary process for the body. It is the immune response when a foreign object or injury occurs. For example, when you hit a knife, the body sends white blood cells to the wound area, causing pain, swelling, red, hot. This is Acute Inflammation, which eliminates pathogens and repairs tissues. When the wound heals, the inflammation ends.

But the problem arises when the inflammation does not end, it becomes a low-level inflammation that continues throughout the body for months or years. This is a "chronic inflammation" condition, which is like the body's immune system malfunctioning and starting to attack its own normal cells. A lot of research has pointed out that this condition is the foundation of serious diseases in modern times, from heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity to cancer and dementia.

What is the "fuel" that ignites the body?

Chronic inflammation does not occur without a cause, but it is triggered by our own everyday lifestyle:

1. Diet: This is the number one culprit. Diet high in sugar, trans fat (found in fries, bakeries), and processed foods is a fine "fuel" that constantly encourages inflammation.

2. Cumulative stress: When we are stressed, the body will secrete cortisol or stress hormones. If we are chronically stressed, constantly high cortisol levels will interfere with immune function and promote inflammation more easily.

3.Insufficient rest: Sleep is the period when the body repairs itself and controls inflammation. Sleeping less than 7-8 hours a night regularly will make this process not fully functional and cause the level of inflammatory substances in the blood to rise.

4.Body immobilization: Long sitting, and lack of exercise is directly related to higher levels of inflammation. Conversely, regular exercise is one of the best ways to "put out the fire."

Operation "extinguish inflammatory fire" with food and lifestyle

The good news is that we can control and reduce chronic inflammation by modifying behavior, focusing on diet choices that compare "fire brigade" to the body:

• Good fat Omega 3: Very common in deep-sea fish such as salmon, mackerel, sardines including walnuts and flax seeds. Omega 3 has direct anti-inflammatory properties.

• Multicolored fruits and vegetables: Rich in antioxidants and polyphenols (Polyphenols) that protect cells from destruction. Focus on greens (Puebleng, Kale) and berries.

• Powerful spice: Turmeric has a key active ingredient, Curcumin, a highly effective natural anti-inflammatory agent, as well as ginger with similar properties.

• Other good fats: Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Avocado are healthy sources of monounsaturated fats and help reduce inflammation.

In addition to adjusting diet, putting an emphasis on quality sleep, finding stress management techniques that suit yourself (such as meditation, yoga), and regular exercise, are the indispensable pillars of creating a "shield" for the body to fight inflammatory fires in the long run.

Coping with silent inflammation is not a short-term solution, but investing in health for the future. Recognizing small alarms and starting behavior modifications from today is the most important step in protecting your body from more dangerous silences than you think.
