  • Publication number: 20130143852
    Abstract: Model and method of treating inflammatory diseases. Traditional treatments for such diseases include administering to the patient toxic anti-inflammatory drugs. Following stabilization of the symptoms, the drug doses are tapered down to minimize side effects, as a result of which inflammation remains high and the disease is rarely cured. A chemistry-based disease model concludes that irrespective of the role that inflammation plays in the disease, inflammation reduction will impede disease initiation and progression. Managing and controlling inflammatory diseases requires reducing inflammation to acceptable normal values. Non-toxic ways such as anti-inflammatory diets and regular exercise allow such reduction in inflammation to normal values, thereby slowing down or arresting disease progression and allowing reduction in the required anti-inflammatory drug maintenance dose.
