Controlling pain and inflammation
Scientists believe that the key to extending lifespan and late-life well-being lies in figuring out how to manipulate and cut off chronic inflammation. While diseases such as those listed below manifest themselves in the body in very different ways, they seem to share many commonalities down at the cellular level.
Most people have heard of so-called autoimmune diseases, when the body turns on itself with a hyperactive defence mechanism. Common examples include hay fever, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, pelvic inflammatory disease, colitis, and bursitis.
You can add to this list cancer, Alzheimer's disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, Parkinson's, osteoporosis, and even depression. Many researchers also now believe that inflammation isn't just a result of osteoarthritis; it may be a contributing cause."The one thing that unifies most major diseases is inflammation," says the Arizona Centre on Aging's Nikolich-Zugich."Whether inflammation is the root cause or whether these diseases are made worse by the inflammatory process isn't entirely clear yet — but inflammation is almost always a factor."
Because our bodies are exposed to more damage at the cell level than they can handle — a process called oxidative stress — shoring up defences is key. And there's no easier way to do that than by carefully choosing what we eat and drink.
