Time Magazine Inflammation and Rosacea

 

 

In the February 23, 2004 issue of Time magazine, the

cover story is titled The Secret Killer: The

Surprising Link Between Inflammation and Heart

Attacks, Cancer, Alzheimer's and Other Diseases. The

article cites how western medicine is now discovering

inflammation to be at the root of killer diseases like

heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes.

 

Unfortunately, the article gives little in terms of

answers except for minor diet modification, exercise,

and experimental drugs replete with side effects. The

article goes on to state that inflammation is a

burgeoning new field and researchers are still

searching for solutions which could take decades to

discover. There is no mention of what eastern medicine

has to say about inflammation.

 

From the viewpoint of eastern medicine, inflammation

is simply an imbalance of heat inside the body. This

includes rosacea. Heating and congesting foods,

sedentary lifestyle, and stressful emotions all

contribute to the onset of inflammation. The answer to

preventing and removing inflammation according to

eastern medicine is diet modification, exercise,

stress reduction, and internal cleansing. Answers that

western medicine are still searching for have been

known by eastern medicine for thousands of years.
