Well, that isn&#8217;t really the healthiest of things to do to fight inflammation because it can really screw up your kidneys and, if taken frequently, can lead to long-term kidney failure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inflammation is the root cause of many diseases!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chronic inflammation is linked to many diseases and can be thought of as the root cause or symptom for most diseases and ailments such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/inflammatory-arthritis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">some arthritis<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25673992\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alzheimer&#8217;s<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/asthma\/what-is-asthma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">asthma<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/31417011\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cancer<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/copd\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20353679\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">COPD &amp; chronic bronchitis<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3846682\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">depression<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/24798950\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">obesity &amp; type 2 diabetes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22895665\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cardiovascular disease<\/a>, and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My thinking tells me that since most health ailments are a result of or associated with chronic inflammation, we should manage it. The best way to do that is BY REMOVING THE SOURCE OF THE INFLAMMATION! All a medication will do is temporarily reduce it and\/or mask the effects (like a bandage to stop bleeding), but as long as its source is still there, you have to keep applying the medicine. All medicines sooner or later have side effects, and over time the side effects can get worse, and eventually, the side effects of the treatment can become worse than the original problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We as a society consume a LOT of inflammation!<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"296\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-296x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Every bite you eat is either fighting disease or feeding it inflammation.\" class=\"wp-image-605\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-296x300.jpeg 296w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-768x778.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-800x810.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-600x608.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-450x456.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-360x365.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-250x253.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-500x506.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-100x100.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C-700x709.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/724670D3-2FC7-4A55-B700-3DE2BFA80B0C.jpeg 948w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>From everything I&#8217;ve read, watched, and understand, what we consume by eating and drinking can perhaps be the number one source for most of the inflammation in our bodies. Many other factors cause inflammation, but I firmly believe food and drink are major culprits from everything I see around me now! IF you suffer from effects of chronic inflammation, the best thing to do is quit feeding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simple carbohydrates such as added sugars and refined grains (white rice, white bread, white pasta, table sugar, etc.) are some of the worst things we can put into our bodies! They are empty calories, basically having minimal nutritional value\/benefit. They&#8217;ll also cause a blood-sugar spike and eventually lead to insulin resistance, type-2 diabetes, and obesity. (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/15113714\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/10885323\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>) IF these carbohydrates are not burned off, then another direct result is high triglycerides! <strong>I still firmly believe THAT was the major cause of my heart attack.<\/strong> These links suggest I&#8217;m on the right track (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/17635890\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/24817696\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/high-blood-cholesterol\/in-depth\/triglycerides\/art-20048186\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>), but that is another topic, and I&#8217;ll write about that one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Omega-6 vs Omega-3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another major possible thought of chronic inflammation is consuming high amounts of Omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-6 IS beneficial and necessary to the body, but like everything else, definitely not in excess. Omega-6 is PRO-inflammatory (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/29610056\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>), and Omega-3 is ANTI-inflammatory (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/16841861\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-type=\"URL\">link<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The typical Western diet has an abundance of Omega-6 and very little Omega-3. Why? I believe it is cost and convenience. For example, it is cheaper to feed cattle, chicken, and fish grain, and it fattens them up (pretty much like how refined grains do to humans, as stated earlier). Because they aren&#8217;t foraging in the fields freely like they should and eating what they are supposed to be eating, their Omega-3 content is virtually non-existent compared to their pastured counterparts. That&#8217;s why I get <a href=\"https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/pasture-raised-chicken\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"693\">Pasture Raised Chicken<\/a>, Grass-Fed Beef, and <a href=\"https:\/\/healthyandfitwithjerome.com\/wild-caught-sockeye-salmon\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"520\">Wild-Caught Sockeye Salmon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modern Day Omega-3:Omega-6 Consumption.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since many people eat (big portions) of meat in their 1-3 meals a day and most of it is grain-fed, they&#8217;re ingesting a lot more Omega-6 than Omega-3. Another example is oils. There are oils in almost everything you buy, and most of those oils are super high in Omega-6. Like nut butter and nut milk? Most of those are super high concentrations of Omega-6 as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is believed that before the modernization of today&#8217;s food supply, that the ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 was 1:1 &#8211; 4:1. Today it is thought to be about 16:1 &#8211; 20:1 or even higher. It&#8217;s also thought that a higher Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio also increases the risk for obesity. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0753332206002435\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/26950145\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a great article more about Omega-6 to Omega-3: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/optimize-omega-6-omega-3-ratio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/optimize-omega-6-omega-3-ratio<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now for the contradictory information to a lot of that, however, there is a big takeaway. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nutritionadvance.com\/omega-6-to-omega-3-ratio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">This article (with studies) suggests that dietary Omega-6 is not as detrimental<\/a> as that all sounded above. The takeaway is that DHA &amp; EPA forms of Omega-3 are crucial and often lacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So what can we do about the Omegas?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Omega-3 reduces inflammation.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Consume more Omega-3<\/strong> to balance out the high amount of Omega-6 that we consume, preferably most of it from animal sources since they have the DHA &amp; EPA form of Omega-3. Most plants are ALA form. Our bodies NEED the DHA &amp; EPA and very poorly converts it to that from ALA. The best vegetarian source of DHA &amp; EPA is from algae. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4467567\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">DPA is &#8220;new&#8221; on the scene and is very interesting!<\/a> <a class=\"paid-link\" data-name=\"Tahiro Omega-3\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/44ZyvMw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">I supplement with this algae-based Omega-3 capsule!<\/a> <span class=\"recommended-product-name product-info\" data-id=\"8413\" data-name=\"Tahiro Omega-3\"><\/span> The quality is far superior to fish oil capsules and doesn&#8217;t give &#8220;fish burps.&#8221; It also makes logical sense that it is better because it is what the fish get.

Oh, no, this algae isn&#8217;t the kind that grows on the side of your aquarium or swimming pool! \ud83d\ude06 Don&#8217;t go overboard with supplementing, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/how-much-omega-3#excessive-intake\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">too much can have negative side effects.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=omega-3&amp;filter=simsearch2.ffrft\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">There are many studies on Omega-3<\/a>, but <a href=\"https:\/\/breast-cancer-research.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/s13058-015-0571-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this study with DHA &amp; EPA about breast cancer is fascinating.<\/a> This is the conclusion of the study: &#8220;The inflammation-resolving properties and favorable effects of EPA and DHA on oncogenic proteins, as well as on the cardiovascular, bone, and central nervous system, make them excellent candidates for primary and secondary breast cancer prevention trials for individuals at increased risk as well as breast cancer survivors.

We need Omega-6, just not in such significant amounts that we typically receive throughout a day, especially in highly concentrated forms such as peanut\/almond butter. For example, two tablespoons of peanuts contain fewer peanuts than two tablespoons of peanut butter, so that&#8217;s less Omega-6. Now two HEAPING tablespoons of peanut butter is more like three tablespoons! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don&#8217;t go nuts over nut milks or nut butters.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Eating a serving of nuts a day is healthy, and there are good nutrients in them! I found <a href=\"https:\/\/vegfaqs.com\/omega-3-to-6-fat-ratio-nuts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this page<\/a> where the author got the amount of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fat content of nuts and calculated a ratio of them. I didn&#8217;t like how the results were a decimal, so I used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inchcalculator.com\/ratio-calculator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this calculator<\/a> to make them an X:1 ratio. Lower is better so this list is sorted from best to worst!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>NUT<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Ratio<\/strong>*<\/td><td><strong>Omega-3<\/strong><\/td><td><strong><strong>Omega-6<\/strong><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Macadamia<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>7:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.26<\/td><td>1.72<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Walnut<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>17:1<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>2.51<\/strong><\/td><td>41.3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Pecan<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>21:1<\/strong><\/td><td>1.08<\/td><td>22.487<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Pistachio<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>52:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.312<\/td><td>16.23<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Hazelnut<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>90:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.1<\/td><td>9<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Cashew<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>126:1<\/strong><\/td><td>0.08432<\/td><td>10.5808<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Pine<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>302:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.15<\/td><td>45.37<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Brazil<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>1,370:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.02<\/td><td>27.4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Almond<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>1,750:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.01<\/td><td>17.5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Peanut<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>2,290:1<\/strong><\/td><td>.01<\/td><td>22.9<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">* Rounded.

Although there are good nutrients in those, too much of these could be a bad thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing that is very interesting is the much higher content of Omega-3 in the walnut compared to all the other nuts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stop consuming so much refined grains and added sugar.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Seriously, that crap is slowly killing you from the inside out. The problem is that sugar is highly addictive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Examples of refined grains are white rice, anything made with white or &#8220;enriched&#8221; flours like most pasta, bread, cereals, cookies, doughnuts, crackers, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Examples of added sugars are (when listed as an ingredient): sugar, table sugar, brown sugar, cane sugar, raw sugar, high fructose corn syrup, most syrups (especially ones that don&#8217;t contain any fiber), -ose ingredients&#8211; sucrose, dextrose, fructose, maltose, glucose.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be wary of most sugar alcohols as many can cause digestive discomfort and could cause other issues. Erythritol is a bit different from the others because it doesn&#8217;t get processed the same as it goes through the bloodstream and excretes unchanged in the urine. (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/16277764\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a>) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/sugar-alcohols-good-or-bad\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Here is a good read on sugar alcohols.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The absolute best sugar replacement that I&#8217;ve learned about and use is <a class=\"paid-link\" data-name=\"100% Monkfruit Liquid Sweetener\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3HKCT8m\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">100% Monkfruit Extract<\/a> <span class=\"recommended-product-name product-info\" data-id=\"8423\" data-name=\"100% Monkfruit Liquid Sweetener\"><\/span>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DO NOT drink fruit juice! EAT THE FRUIT! Juice lacks fiber to slow down the digestion of the sugar, and is basically like drinking a soda with some vitamins. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div

Start by searching &#8220;does _____ cause inflammation?&#8221; The results may be astonishing! Look for search results that are actual studies and\/or articles with reputation and articles that reference facts and not opinions.
