Also it can help to rebalance your immune system, making it stronger and more functional.<br /><br />I also think taking a good look at your diet could help too. Diet is an often overlooked source of inflammation and changing the diet can often make a huge difference in the level of inflammation in the body. Simple changes like getting rid of processed food and sugar and exchanging it for whole foods, lots of vegetables and fruit can help. Just try to avoid nightshade vegetables (tomato, potato, bell pepper, eggplant) since they can exacerbate inflammation that is already present. Also adding anti-inflammatory foods, like turmeric, tart cherry juice and food high in Omega 3 fatty acids, like salmon, flax seeds, chia seeds, hemp and hemp seeds, can make a difference in your overall level of inflammation. <br /><br />Prednisone and cancer meds can wreak havoc on the body. Sometimes they are essential and other times not. The more you can work with diet and acupuncture, the less you will need those drugs, if you need them at all.<br /><br />Good luck!Janine L.

They say there is no cure for the inflammation and that my immune system is out of wack. They have put me on all kind of cancer medicine and prednisone for a long time. Do you think acupuncture would be a good idea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2458285428403382201.post-54217580495975876772012-06-16T19:16:14.202-07:002012-06-16T19:16:14.202-07:00I'm glad you find it useful.

I usually find more in your information to keep than to leave. I look forward to continuing this conversation with you. Thanks so much. I hope to see you sometime soon.Kathy Crowley-Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322707095575786159noreply@blogger.com
