All About Inflammation Part One: 4 Stages of Inflammation
The 4 Stages of Inflammation
By Dr. Christine Sauer
Lately, there have been more and more diseases associated with inflammation.
In my opinion, there are 4 distinct stages of abnormal inflammation that lead to a succession of chronic diseases and illnesses.
Stage 1:
Slight chronic Inflammation. Symptoms you may feel are Fatigue, Insomnia, Brain Fog, “Aches and Pains”, Weight Change
Stage 2:
Moderate chronic Inflammation. Symptoms you may feel are Bloating, Cramps, “IBS”, Recurrent infections (skin, respiratory tract), seasonal Allergies, slight “Allergies”, Eczema, Food intolerances and “sensitivities”
Stage 3:
Severe chronic inflammation. Diagnosable diseases you may “have”: Severe Inflammation, Chronic Diseases (“of Aging??”), Some Depressions and probably some other mental illnesses, Autoimmune diseases (Psoriasis, severe Eczema, M. Crohn, Colitis ulcerosa, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus and more…), Probably also: Fibromyalgia, Heart disease, Cancer, Obesity, Diabetes, Dementia, chronic Pain, ADD, ADHD, Autism (diseases of “our time”)
Stage 4:
End-Stage Inflammation. What does that look like? End-stage Cancer, Severe Bone deformities, End-stage Heart failure, End-stage Dementia, Blindness, Amputations…
Stages 1-3 are reversible if addressed properly.
