basil, turmeric, and devil's claw, as well as other natural
substances

From aspirin and ibuprofen to antihistamines and cortisone,
anti-inflammatory drugs are now the top-selling pharmaceuticals in
the world. But daily use of these powerful drugs comes with a
price: side effects, many of which can lead to other chronic
conditions and the further use of medications.
In this practical guide to natural remedies for inflammation,
naturopath Christopher Vasey explores 38 anti-inflammatory herbs,
such as laurel, basil, turmeric, and devil's claw, as well as other
natural substances, such as propolis and fish oil. He explains
which conditions each addresses most effectively, proper dosage,
and the best methods of ingestion.
Vasey explains how, like fever, inflammation is a defensive
reaction of the body and also carries out a cleansing process,
which natural remedies support but pharmaceuticals can destabilize
by contributing more toxins to the internal terrain. He examines
many of the most common inflammation-related ailments--such as
allergies, asthma, conjunctivitis, bronchitis, sinusitis, cystitis,
tendonitis, arthritis, eczema, and sciatica--and explains which
medicinal plant or food supplement is best suited to safely
alleviate unpleasant symptoms while helping the body complete the
healing the inflammation was initiated to perform.
Revealing the important role of omega-3s in defending the body
against inflammation and reducing the damage caused by chronic
inflammation, Vasey explores what foods are rich in these key
molecules, how much must be eaten to defend the body, and what
omega-3 supplements are most suited to your body's needs. The
author also examines how to deacidify the body, as acids have an
inflammatory effect, as well as how to use hydrotherapy to calm
inflammation.
