Episode notes
Many Aging Symptoms Are Inflammatory
- Inflammation is the body's overreaction to modern toxins, processed foods, and stress.
- Many common 'aging' symptoms are actually inflammation-driven and potentially reversible.
Mental Stress Causes Physical Inflammation
- Mental stress produces 'mental inflammation' that manifests physically as headaches, fatigue, and brain fog.
- Managing stress and guarding your mind are as important as diet for reducing inflammation.
Know Safety, Contraindications, And Upper Limits
- Turmeric is generally safe long-term; avoid high-strength supplements if on blood thinners due to blood-thinning effects.
- Doses up to ~8 grams/day are tolerated but may cause GI upset; start lower and adjust.
