New insights into chronic pain and the factors that prevent proper resolution of inflammation have led to the development of several new herbal and nutritional combinations. These have shown great promise in clinical trials and fantastic feedback has been received from patients about their response to treatment so far. Inflammation can be a good thing Everyone has experienced acute inflammation – a sprained ankle, splinter, or cut – and as a result have witnessed the affected area turn red, puffy and hot as your immune system rushes to your aid to assess the injury and fight any pathogen that might have entered your body. A normal, healthy inflammatory response should flare up and die down again a short time later, as the healing process resolves the inflammation and the injury heals. Pain and inflammation should not be chronic, it should go away – but what if it doesn’t? Safe and natural solutions for inflammation Many people are aware that fish oils reduce inflamma-tion and can assist with joint conditions such as arthri-tis; however there are also herbal ingredients that offer safe and effective anti- inflammatory sup-port. These anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving herbs

are ‘gut friendly’ and safe for long-term use. Turmeric – this traditional anti-inflammatory Ayurvedic herb has a long history of use for injuries, whilst recent research demonstrates it also helps reduce the swell-ing and pain of arthritic conditions. BCM-95® Turmeric has significantly enhanced absorption, meaning you get the benefit of this powerful herbs’ anti-inflammatory properties when you need it. BosPure® Boswellia – another Ayurvedic herb, Bos-wellia has analgesic, antirheumatic and anti-inflammatory qualities. Boswellia can be used for all types of pain, but particularly arthritic or traumatic pain associated with inflammation. The herbs Devils claw and Jamaica dogwood, when combined, not only help reduce pain, but decrease spasms and improve blood flow, therefore support the healing process. Put an end to inflammation! Don’t let visible or invisible inflammation be a perpetu-ating problem. Addressing inflammation can not only improve your quality of life now, but reduce your risk of chronic disease in future.
