Time magazine put it on the cover, millions of people suffer from it, it is linked to cancer, heart attacks & many other diseases. So what can you do to fight it? Attack it NATURALLY!
There are 3 types of pain that exist: acute, chronic and neuropathic. Acute stems from tissue injury & is usually short term. Chronic is typically long term and can be due to a serious disease. Neuropathic pain involves nerve damage and is typically perceived with tingling, burning, piercing pain. Fibromyalgia, diabetes, shingles are typically associated with neuropathic pain. Not only does inflammation cause our bodies pain, but it also takes a toll on our outward appearance.
The first step when attacking any type of inflammation is to reduce the trio that is associated with pain. We must reduce oxidative stress, combat inflammation and reduce the pain

The first step when attacking any type of inflammation is to reduce the trio that is associated with pain. We must reduce oxidative stress, combat inflammation and reduce the pain
that accompanies inflammation. How do we do this?
#1 ALKALIZE: Reduce the acidity in your body by alkalizing yourself. The best way to do this is to drink spring water or if you are not near a natural spring to drink alkaline, antioxidant water.

To further alkalize, be sure to incorporate lots of greens, what really boosts your alkaline reserve is to drink a green juice or green drink like Ultimate Green Zone or Sunwarrior Ormus Greens.
#2 Reduce Free Radicals: Reduce free radicals by loading your body up with antioxidants. An abundance of free radicals activates inflammation and disease in our body. Start eating more berries, they are rich in antioxidants. As is mangosteen, one of the most powerful antioxidants known. A daily liquid like this one here can be very helpful in combating free radicals and reducing inflammation in the body.
#3 Load up on health boosting, inflammation reducing herbs & nutrients. Superherbs like Turmeric will help with over 500 conditions, including pain and inflammation! Willow Bark, Boswellin, Powdered Ginger, Flaxseed, and Tart Cherry Juice.
An often overlooked trace mineral whose absence can cause joint pain, inflammation & other issues is silica. Silica is also one of the most beautifying minerals known. Here is a brief rundown on the health benefits of silica:
• Silica can hinder the effects of coronary disease by fortifying blood vessels.
• Silica aids in the repair and maintenance of vital lung tissues and defending them from pollution.
• Silica decreases swelling due to its positive effects on the lymphatic system.
• Silica assists in the prevention of kidney stones and heal infection of the urinary tract. It is a natural diuretic, which can encourage excretion by 30%.
• The presence of adequate Silica in the intestines will diminish inflammation of the intestinal tract. It can cause disinfection in the case of stomach and intestinal catarrh and ulcers. Silica can avert or clear up diarrhea and its opposite, constipation.
• Silica can assist in normalizing hemorrhoidal tissues, while lessening lower back pain.
• Silica works as a supportive treatment for inflammation of the middle ear.
• Silica may normalize circulation and regulate high blood pressure.
• Silica can assist diabetes by encouraging synthesis of elastase (an enzyme) inhibitor by the pancreas.
• Silica improves mobility by improving the elasticity of the joints.
• Silica may hinder the pain of osteoarthritis and rheumatism.
• Silica may stimulate cell metabolism and division.
• Silica delays the aging process.
• Silica beautifies hair with luster, elasticity and vigor.
• By taking part in the synthesis of elastin and collagen, Silica regenerates skin and the vascular walls.
