Yeah, I'd like to know how do you get inflammation out of your body without taking medication Because all the medications are making me sick Okay, inflammation is an indication of various types of disease states Everything from obesity to diabetes and high blood pressure all on inflammatory conditions So natural anti-inflammatories of clueless of course you always hear doctor Carl you're talking about vitamin B But it has to be at a therapeutic dose a recommended dose is 600 to a thousand milligrams per day That does nothing for you You need to take five thousand international units per day for a fair for an optimal dose that will decrease inflammation Omega-3 fish orders also a great anti-inflammatory and then there are things like turmeric Corcumin all natural ways to decrease inflammation

If you overweight lose a little little Weight you can lose 10 pounds decrease the amount of inflammation you're by the by like 50 60 percent So it's pretty good as far as anti-inflammation goes and so if you block and Implementation then you won't have it or be a risk to these like heart attacks and strokes I show not the mj calia. Good morning. I wanted to get his take on diverticulosis in the black community Okay, it's not limited to the black community and we have this is one of the disease state where we're at no higher risk diverticulosis is the condition of having Akin like multiple appendix is so instead of just one finger like projection coming off your intestines that can't Get infected or rupture you have multiple ones the most common sight is the sigmoid rectum And that's due to sitting on the toilet for extended periods of time and straining at a bowel movement So the way to control and prevent that from playing up into diverticulitis Which is like having appendicitis that's a medical emergency and if it ruptures

It's basically just duff and bacteria in such an abdomen so you had high risk So don't strain at your bowel movements drink plenty of water Go to the bathroom when you get the urge to go now men We we will go anytime anywhere no matter what but women will hold it for three days Until they're in the comfort of their own bathroom and will not go at the workplace will not go at the local service station So it is a problem and that's why the student comes dry and hard they have to strain at it and it predisposes them to diverticulosis Yeah, man shot at the all the people out there that can that can actually do the with a coat on y'all some bad y'all some I take that coat off dog.
