Inflammation is not a "disease", it is the process by which the body is attempting to return to health. It is a function of allostasis. Modern misunderstanding of the body erroneously labels symptoms of detoxification, adaptation & healing as "disease". One great error which has blinded the minds of medical men in observing the true principles of science, is confounding symptoms of disease with the disease itself. A man has a bit of sharp sand blown on his cornea by the wind; he cannot displace it himself - what occurs? The eye begins to inflame and looks red and angry; the eye looks diseased. But is this disease? No. It is only the symptom produced by the bit of sand-the sand, in fact, is the real disease, and the inflammation is nothing more than an effort of nature to get rid of the bit of sand. The inflammation (the falsely called disease) in short is a conservative process. Inflammation is meant to heal by causing elimination. Inflammation triggers elimination process. Inflammation tells us that the body is working to restore balance in a system. It is normal. Inflammation is natural, works for the body. Anti-inflammatory is unnatural and works against the body. The same way bacterial proliferation is the body and nature's symbiotic process. Antibiotics are against the body's natural processes. We reduce inflammation by understanding what has caused the body to initiate inflammation to reduce the negative impact of "the cause". Remove the cause & then herbs or fruits can be used to assist in the inflammation process by ensuring the inflammation process is complete. There’s also zero evidence that inflammation causes disease based on controlled experiments with independent variables. Again, inflammation is part of the healing process and not the opposite. https://wellcomecollection.org/works/s6a9c33r/item Also a great read - ![[Pasted image 20260307123219.png]]
