How Toxins Cause Inflammation (Vicious Cycle)

Описание: Why do you need to detox to reduce inflammation? Toxins cause inflammation and inflammation reduces detox in a vicious cycle.

Toxins cause inflammation in many ways.

They result in increased production of free radicals which can overwhelm your antioxidant reserve.

Some toxins - the endocrine disrupting chemical (EDCs) - mimic your hormones and bind with hormone receptors, to interfere with hormone signalling. Often they mimic oestrogen which in excess can cause inflammation as well as many other undesirable effects in both men and women.

Many toxins are also obesogens, meaning they cause weight gain. Many toxins are stored in body fat and too rapid weight loss could reduce your life expectancy as toxins are mobilised from their safe storage in fat tissue. Thats why you may need to detox to lose weight. That extra fat is not just inert tissue, but releases inflammatory signalling molecules and increases oestrogen whilst reducing testosterone, again with consequences for both men and women.

Mycotoxins from mould exposure can also drive inflammation and are linked with Alzheimer's disease and many other health conditions. Mould exposure may be from mouldy homes or workplaces, or certain foods which are more prone to be contaminated with mould.

This video explains how toxins cause inflammation and why you need to detoxify. Subsequent videos in the series offer practical dietary and lifestyle tips on how you can detox. First I discuss how to reduce your exposure to many different kinds of toxins lurking in places you would not suspect, and in a later video I focus more on dietary changes and how nutrition can support detoxification enzymes, each of which depends on specific nutrients.
