Controlling the inflammatory process centers around a diet free of foods to which you are allergic, supplemented with digestive enzymes. These enzymes break down proteins into amino acids and aid in their absorption. If you suffer from frequent bouts of indigestion, you would do well to eliminate suspect foods for several weeks. Introduce them back into your diet one at a time, waiting for two or three weeks between introductions to see if allergic symptoms recur. The two classes of foods most likely to cause allergic reactions in adults are those containing wheat and dairy products. Many people have achieved relief from acid indigestion ( gastric esophageal reflux disorder, or GERD) by eliminating wheat and diary from their diets. It is important to know that most cases of indigestion in people of middle age and older result from over consumption of carbohydrates, accompanied by insufficient digestive enzymes, not from lack of stomach acids. Although we are bombarded by advertisements telling us we have excess gastric juices that need to be controlled, this is simply not true for most of us. Gastrointestinal support with digestive enzymes, friendly digestive bacteria( acidophilus, bifidus, and lactobacillus) and amino acids such as L-glutamine can markedly decrease inflammatory processes occurring at the cellular level.
Maintaining an appropriate ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 essential fatty acids is another important way to regulate the inflammatory pathways within cells. Niacin or niacinamide and folic acid are natural approaches. Lipoic acid, boswellic acid, turmeric, gymnema, ginger, borage oil, and bitter gourd also help minimize inflammatory tendencies. Decreasing the burden of toxic elements such as aluminum, copper and iron, which are found in drinking water in some areas, as well as in foods cooked in pots made of these metals, helps reduce the presence of inflammation. Celecoxib ( brand name Celebrex), a class of anti-inflammatory drug that inhibits the enzyme that produces inflammatory eicosanoids, is useful when taken in doses of 50 to 100 mg once or twice a day. This is a quarter to a half the amount recommended to treat orthoarthritis. A water-solube extract of cat's claw ( una de gato) is a medicinal herb credited with inhibiting both NF-kappa B and tumor necrosis factor alpha ( TNF-alpha), both of which promote inflammation and growth of tumors.
