QUICK FACT 3

ChNew research is confirming a definite connection between chronic inflammation and both physical and neurological diseases including:

• asthma
• Alzheimer's Disease
• cancer
• diabetes
• digestive disorders
• heart disease
• hormone imbalances
• osteoporosis

These conditions are linked by inflammation.  Research suggests that once you have one inflammatory disease there can be a spiraling downfall.  This means that you are at high risk to get another inflammatory disease, or one of the illnesses causes by inflammation.  Take care of yourself well to prevent further damage to your health.
