The Six Illnesses and the Three Shared Causes

The Six Illnesses Covered in This Show:
● Cancer
● Diabetes (type 2)
● Heart disease
● Alzheimer’s
● Arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis)
● Susceptibility to infection (getting sick more often)

The Three Shared Causes
● Chronic low-grade inflammation — the body’s repair response staying switched on permanently instead of resolving
● Insulin resistance — cells stop responding to insulin, sugar backs up in the blood, the pancreas overworks
● Oxidative stress — the body produces more free radicals than it can neutralize, damaging cells and tissue
