[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 1082258, member: 4886"] I totally believe and agree with the "inflammation" causing a variety of diseases and illnesses. I've read quite a few books on the subject, ("Inflammation Nation") is one I recall offhand. The things I do, and it suggests is to take supplements such as GLA (a type of omega 6 that is a good guy), it is found in borage oil. They recomendation is to take 600 mg per day in divided dosages. Also, they highly recomend Omega 3 from fish oils. Dr Atkins in a book ("Vitanutrients"), recomended consuming from 3600- 7200 mg of oils consisting of equal parts borage oil, fish oil and flax oil. He didn't use the term inflammation, but he was talking about the same ideas and this book is a good 15+ years old. I take 3 fish oil pills a day (Am, noon and PM), 2 borage oil pills (Am, PM) and a flax seed pill (noon) each day. It helped me tremendously. I also take pantethine and pathothenic acid (a form of vitamin B5, and B5 itself). Along with a host of other herbs and vitamins. This really has helped my disease I have. Anyone suffering from any autoimmune disease, including people with diabetes would do well to look into this. Weight is also key and from Dr Atkins book, eating a low carb diet so you don't have spikes of insulin also to avoid problems with these types of diseases. [/QUOTE]
