This Silent Killer Is Making You Fat And Sick.
This Silent Killer Is Making You Fat And Sick.
How To Know If You’re At Risk And What To Do About It.
You’ve probably heard for a long time how important it is to keep a balanced diet in order to stay in excellent health and at your ideal weight. Numerous studies have shown a correlation between unhealthy diets high in refined carbohydrates, sugar, and saturated fats and almost every chronic disease. Many people still haven’t altered their diets or asked food producers to provide higher-quality meals, though. Inflammation brought on by low-quality diets is directly linked to diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, cancer, and a host of other serious illnesses.What is inflammation?
A typical immunological response in the body is inflammation. Your body sends chemicals and white blood cells to fight against injury or external invaders like a virus or bacterium. This helps your body heal and defend itself from disease. This naturally benefits your health and keeps you in good condition.So what occurs when inflammation is chronic?
Your immune system goes into overdrive when your body is out of balance, leading to chronic inflammation, weight gain, pain, and disease. Even when the immune system of the body is aroused but there is no threat from an outside invader, chronic inflammation still takes place. One of the main causes of chronic inflammation is food, which is also the main treatment.
Foods that Promote Chronic Inflammation: You are well aware of the detrimental effects that highly processed and refined foods have on your health. In addition to causing obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, auto-immune illnesses, and a host of other serious health issues, refined sugars and grains are nutritionally devoid. Another significant risk factor for illness is saturated fats.
You might be surprised to learn that some meals have a higher propensity to aggravate inflammation and the immune system. You may experience hormonal imbalance, mood swings, joint pain, sinus and respiratory troubles, headaches, digestive problems, exhaustion, and weight gain when your body reacts to these low-level allergens. With the possible exception of weight gain, the symptoms appear gradually over time, and the cause is rarely connected to eating. As a result, you might seek comfort through medicine or other diagnostic and therapeutic methods, but if your diet doesn’t alter, you won’t experience long-lasting relief.
The sources of the most typical food sensitivities are:
- Dairy Goods
- Gluten \ Corn
- Soy \ Yeast
- A Fried Dish
- Synthetic Sweeteners
- Antibiotics and Hormones
- Artificial Additives (which are found in practically all packaged foods)
What Leads to Inflammation Caused by Food?
Your body is impacted by whatever you put inside of it, for better or ill. Refined foods that you consume or absorb into your body can cause havoc on your digestive system by changing the PH balance, changing the bacterial composition, and harming the protective lining in your stomach and intestinal tract. They can also be loaded with chemicals, pesticides, and other toxins, medications, excessive amounts of sugar, and other harmful substances.Leaky gut is the term for this (sounds disgusting, doesn’t it?)
Your digestive tract’s lining is made to shield your body and immune system from the toxins and allergens that are present there. When the barrier is compromised, food particles pass through and trigger your immune system. Your body starts attacking your food as though it were an outsider. Weight gain and other serious health disorders are brought on by the body’s persistent inflammation brought on by this unbalanced immune response.Which Foods Reduce Inflammation?
Use food as a healing agent. Making healthy dietary adjustments can help you shed excess weight, manage chronic pain, lower your risk of developing significant chronic conditions, and maybe even reverse chronic conditions. Eliminate foods that cause inflammation and replace them with more nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory foods that are rich in omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants.Start including the following foods in your diet:
- Berries (Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries) (Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- Green leafy vegetables (Spinach, kale, beat greens)
- Large fish (such as salmon)
- Garlic
- Virgin extra olive oil
- Vegetables (Beats, celery, red pepper, tomato, broccoli) (Beats, celery, red pepper, tomato, broccoli)
- A raw oat.
- Turmeric
- Whole grains (brown rice, quinoa, millet)
- Ginger
- Recent fruits (apples, pineapple)
- Fresh honey
- Nuts and seeds
- Legumes and beans

Then there’s the amazing people, our E4L community, this is what makes the gym so unique to all the other gyms I’ve been a member of. 
Sab and Erin offer a personalised and uniquely supportive approach to fitness. Be it classes or personal training everyone, regardless of ability, is catered for. I have trained with them for over two years now and can not speak more highly of them. They have supported me through both injury and illness without a second thought. It is not just a gym, we're a community. 
Sab, Erin, and Joe are a great team who work hard to not only a gym but a thriving community. They also don't just get you to throw weights around the place but to think constructively about your training, own it and do the work whilst shaping lifestyle changes that last for the long term.
Elements4Life is different. It is not your bog standard gym. Here you will be challenged to become reflective, encouraged to join a community and become one with your health and well-being. Love this place and the best decision I made in 2019 was to become a member of E4L.
