<h4 data-menu="Yalda's Experience">Yalda's Experience With Ulcerative Colitis</h4>
<p>Yalda suffers from ulcerative colitis and has researched inflammatory bowel disease since her diagnosis in 2007.</p>
<p>She has spent tens of thousands of pounds trying to heal her issue, but nothing truly helped. She saw numerous gastroenterologists, naturopaths, nutritionists, and healers, read many books and dozens of medical research studies, did acupuncture, kinesiology, and allergy testing, and visited numerous medical health spas and clinics worldwide. The following advice is what<strong> truly put her UC in remission after a period of no remission from 2007 until 2015</strong> - apart from the first course of prednisone she was put on and her second pregnancy<strong>.</strong></p>
<p><strong> She took mesalamine, prednisone, azathioprine / Humira, and infliximab over the years</strong>. These drugs helped her symptoms not to deteriorate as fast as they would have without medication, but unfortunately, as time went by, she saw more side effects of the drugs, and her constant severe flare was not going away. Finally, she<strong> came off medication in 2016 and is now medication-free. </strong></p>

<h3 data-menu="Inflammation">Inflammation and Inflammatory Bowel Disease</h3>
<p>This lifestyle aims to help you <strong>reset your gut flora</strong> and <strong>lower your inflammation levels. </strong>All non-communicable diseases are linked to chronic inflammation, and the correlation is direct in the case of autoimmune disease.</p>
<h4>Inflammation: the main culprit for your digestive issues</h4>
<p><strong>Crohn's disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Coeliac Disease, and Diverticulitis are all Inflammatory Bowels Diseases (IBD)</strong> and are directly linked to chronic inflammation. In some cases, scientists have established a correlation between high inflammatory markers (ESR, CRP, IL-1, IL-6)  and IBD. In others, researchers show that there can be a dysregulation in anti-inflammatory agents, leading to diseases like Crohn's, as shown in this <a href="https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0076969" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study.</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h4>How can chronic inflammation be measured?</h4>
<p>We are so often asked how we can measure inflammation. Blood tests measure chronic systemic inflammation, which is the level of continuous inflammation around the entire body. The main three markers are C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR), and Plasma Viscosity (PV). These markers help medical doctors measure your inflammation but aren’t always 100% accurate. In her experience, her markers were never extremely high, even when symptoms were severe. She relies on her symptoms to try and gauge her inflammation levels.</p>
<p>Take into account other factors which might increase your inflammation levels, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>lack of good quality sleep</li>
<li>poor nutrition</li>
<li>periods of prolonged stress</li>
<li>high-intensity exercise</li>
<li>sedentary lifestyle</li>
<li>high BMI (obesity fuels chronic inflammation, as seen in <a href="https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/proceedings-of-the-nutrition-society/article/obesity-inflammation-and-the-immune-system/BBA951027B413AEE76E3DA11A81173F1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this study from Cambridge University)</a></li>
<li>depression or anxiety (both linked to <a href="https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/7854_2012_211" target="_blank" rel="noopener">chronic inflammation</a>)</li>
<li>the presence of other autoimmune issues</li>
</ul>
<p>In general, chronic inflammation can trigger the expression of diseases and potentially lead to a vicious, inflammatory cycle, where an inflammatory disease caused by inflammation fuels further chronic inflammation. This mechanism has been observed for many conditions, such as obesity, depression, and autoimmune diseases.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 data-menu="Symptoms">Symptoms of chronic and systemic inflammation</h3>
<p>Chronic inflammation can express itself through an array of symptoms and diseases; consequently, there are many telltale signs of inflammation. Here is a list of signs you might want to look for:</p>
<ul>
<li>stiffness around the body</li>
<li>joint pain</li>
<li>foggy brain</li>
<li>anxiety</li>
<li>skin issues</li>
<li>food intolerances</li>
<li>bloating</li>
<li>hair loss</li>
<li>fatigue</li>
</ul>
