What is Inflammation
Inflammation is often confused with injuries from over exertion or perhaps sports and recreational mishaps. Often times when you think of arthritis, you think of inflammation. So, just what is this body state. Overall it is a process in which the body's own white blood cells and chemicals actually help protect us from infection and any foreign substances such as bacteria and or viruses that may be invading our internal organs.
Sadly in some illness/diseases, however, the body's amazing defense system or (immune system) actually triggers an inflammatory response when there are no foreign substances actually present within the body in an effort to fight it off. This is what we refer to as autoimune diseases. In these diseases, the body's normally protective immune system causes damage to its own internal tissues. The body responds as if normal tissues are infected or somehow abnormal and actually harms the very organs it was intended to defend. So, what diseases do we associate with all of this? Most, but not all types of arthritis, are the result of misdirected signals sent by the body. Arthritis is a general term that describes this condition within our joints. Some types of arthritis associated with this include:
The most common form of arthritis is called osteoarthritis (also known as degenerative arthritis) is a somewhat of a misnomer. It is not believed that inflammation plays much or any role in osteoarthritis. Other painful conditions of the joints and musculoskeletal system that are not associated with inflammation include fibromyalgia, muscular low back pain and muscular neck pain. Inflammation is characterized by:
Inflammation may also be associated with general "flu"-like symptoms including: Inflammation Cause and Effect
It used to be for the aging population not the young and mobile soon to be adult community. Chronic pain suffering has increased at lower age levels over time. Part of this is attritubted to a much higher population and thus more cases but the bottom line is we are treating more children and young adults afflicted with this illness than ever before.There are many exciting information portals available on the internet. One such is TendonitisNet which focuses on those suffering from Tendonitis. Tendonitis.net offers information and treatment options about tendonitis, tendonitis treatment, tendonitis symptoms,tendonitis relief, tendinitis pain and more. Planet Berry is very excited to have them as part of our alliance in the quest to build momentum in research and development for chronic illness and thus cures!
There are many studies underway today about the effects of Human Growth Hormones and inflammation. Very early stages in the clinical sense and highly disputed area of the medical profession. The mixed reviews are cause for a pause if you are considering and a deeper dive in your research. It has taken on more of a central theme with respect to many illness and thus diseases like Cancer and of course Rheumatoid Arthiritis. We have learned a great deal by studying patients who are stricken with various chronic pain based symptoms and diagnoised illness. More needs to be done and to get there will take all nations focused on more investment as inflammation could be the "key" to unlocking the "why" things happen in our body to create negative and thus painful situations. We as individuals must push the medical community and private sector to keep investing in reasearch that could one day lead to great discoveries and cures. There are many online environments from which to choose and we have found one in particular Arthritis Treatment And Relief which is a website dedicated to providing information about the most up- to-date and effective conventional and alternative treatments for arthritis. Please visit them often to keep up to date on news and events. We are always seeking new and informative ways to keep you all up to date on the latest information on the battles we all face medically.

Exercise & InflammationChronic illness studies are showing great promise when a patient undertakes a regular exercise program. Inflammation has been shown to actually reverse course in some studies where a low impact and contiuous exercise routine is practiced.Lumiscope® Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor - Only $49.99 The sheer impact of our bodies ability to cope in fighting off internal illness attacks like diabetes and arthiritis appears to be central to inflammation. As we continue to provide scientific analysis to the core structural causes of rheumatoid arthiritis and other debilating diseases we keep comming back to the bodies internal fighting capabilities to ward off inflammation. There are ongoing studies to correlate the impact of cancer cells being impacted as well. No cure or even estimate for a cure is known but we do know that exercising on a regular basis and maintaining a healthy diet plan are key to winning the battle for a healthy and happy aging process.
It's ironic that our schools have had to cut back so much in the past 20 years due to cost and yet we as a nation are paying huge premiums central to obesity. This is not an adult only problem and the schools cutting back on Physical Education classes as being mandatory is a direct correlation to the problems we are faced with today and tomorrow. Our children need to get back on the fields at very young ages. Bring back the Presidential Fitness Prorgram that a lot of us in our 40's and over remember all too well.

Famous athletes are working to do their part and we should reach deep into our charitable donations and help fight the battle of obesity by bringing exercise back to the schools. We tip our hat to Shaquille O'Neal of the Miami Heat. He recently invested his personal time and network on series to show that even the most obese of children can be helped. He along with Governor Charlie Crist of Florida are blazing a new trail to focus on the core issues with our children. Their program encourages children and young adults to adopt healthy lifestyles that include daily physical activity and healthy eating habits. They participated in a rally for about 500 students from the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Big Bend, after meeting earlier in the day to discuss the Governor's Council on Physical Fitness and O'Neal's primetime television show, "Shaq's Big Challenge." If they can do it in Florida we have 49 more Governors to get the message out to! We would also like to recognize ABC Network for their support in helping win the battle of obesity by providing a network show on exercise and diet planning with Shaquille O'Neal!
