Acute pain is the body's response to an injury - it is a normal and necessary part of the healing process as it alerts us that something is wrong and encourages us to rest and recover. However, chronic pain is a debilitating condition that can go on for months or years, and results from cellular inflammation and damage to the delicate nerve endings that transmit pain.
Cellular inflammation results from the accumulation of free radicals inside our cells. Toxins and heavy metals can also accumulate and damage the cells. The body requires antioxidants to clean up these harmful free radicals and toxins, and no antioxidant is more important than Glutathione, our Master Antioxidant.

Unfortunately, our glutathione levels become rapidly depleted as we age, leading to a build up
of free radicals and inflammation within our cells. To add to the problem, pain medications and
other pharmaceutical drugs have the unfortunate side effect of further depleting our glutathione
levels, creating a vicious circle.

Glutathione is a Potent Anti-Inflammatory
In addition to being our most powerful antioxidant, glutathione also has potent anti-inflammatory properties. Glutathione helps to reduce the levels of inflammatory cytokines (such as NFKb, TNF and C Reactive Protein), as explained by Dr Don Colbert. Curcumin also has powerful anti-inflammatory properties, and has been compared to Celebrex in scientific studies.
Cellgevity™ is an advanced antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nutritional supplement that has been clinically proven to significantly boost glutathione levels in the body. Cellgevity contains RiboCeine™ to fuel glutathione production, along with other natural glutathione enhancing ingredients such as selenium, and natural anti-inflammatory plant compounds such as curcumin (derived from turmeric).
An Anti-Inflammatory Diet is Important Too
A number of factors influence inflammation in the body and diet is one of the most important inflammation modulators. An anti-inflammatory diet is useful in helping to control chronic pain, including plenty of vegetables (especially sulphur rich vegetables like broccoli, garlic, asparagus, etc) and healthy oils (extra virgin coconut oil). Processed and sugary foods are best avoided as they create more inflammation.
Many cooking oils are very pro-inflammatory (vegetable oil, canola oil, soybean oil), as are the
toxic transfats contained in fast foods (burgers, fries, store bought cakes etc). The ubiquitous
transfats are some of the worst disease causing agents in the modern diet. Partially hydrogenated
oils or 'transfats' do not occur naturally so the body is unable to process them, which stresses
the liver and creates a very inflammatory response.
Virgin coconut oil on the other hand has potent anti-inflammatory effects and has many other
health benefits. Fish oils are high in beneficial Omega 3 fats which also help to reduce inflammation.
Other factors such as reducing stress, getting enough sleep, and moderate exercise can also help
to lower inflammation.
