Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

All right, I have another very interesting topic, inflammation. Okay.

And inflammation is a normal healing repair process. But the problem is when your body has

chronic inflammation, all sorts of destruction can occur. And also an infection against a virus or a bacteria or another

pathogen, it's our own body's reaction to that pathogen that creates the damage. In other words,

it's our own immune inflammatory condition that creates the collateral damage that we should

be concerned about and understand thoroughly

in order to counter all this damage. I mean, think about a cytokine storm where you have this

hyper-inflammatory immune response in your lungs. The doctors will give you prednisone,

which is a synthetic cortisol to help calm it down.

But it's the excess amount of inflammation that really creates this collateral damage.

And then you have autoimmune diseases, right?

Crohn's, rheumatoid arthritis, even alopecia, which is like patches of your hair falling out, is an autoimmune disease. And the common theme for

autoimmune diseases is inflammation. So if you can get rid of inflammation, you can get rid of

the complications and symptoms and problems with that autoimmune disease. Then you have old

injuries where the body then creates this inflammation that then can persist chronically over

years, creating all sorts of scar tissue, stiffness. And I have firsthand knowledge of that with my left

elbow, with my back, with my ankles from all the massive injuries that I've experienced.

And out of all the drugs, the top selling drugs, the number one worldwide selling drug is Humera.

What is that drug for?

Inflammation.

And so a tremendous amount of people on this planet have too much inflammation.
