Dr. Will Bulsiewicz

Your body is dictated in total, in sum.

And inflammation is a driving force behind these health conditions that ultimately may be manifesting with what are subtle symptoms in different parts of the body and different health conditions that you go and you say, well, there's a skin issue and there's a mood issue and there's a gut issue.

But what we should be saying is all three of these things, they're kind of coming from the same place, which is inflammation that is the driving force behind them.

Yes.

And as a medical doctor, I believe that most of my colleagues feel the same way that I do, which is that both in the UK and the US, we have a healthcare system that is designed to treat symptoms.

And there's nothing that goes beyond that, unfortunately.

There is no incentive to continue with, okay, but what was the root of the issue?

What is the driving force behind the genesis, the development of disease?

And if we had a system that was designed to do that, where we didn't just stop by patching the symptoms, where we actually continued into a better and deeper place, which is, I want to address how we got here and make this person truly healthy.

If we did that, this word inflammation would be showing up all over the place.

And I believe that if we had a lineup of a thousand medical doctors and we said to them, what is the most pervasive problem in the modern world?

and they could be of many different specialties, I believe that what we would hear is inflammation is the most common answer by far.

No.

And that's a great question, actually.

But the answer is no.

And here's why.

Our goal is not to artificially suppress the immune system.

Every time that we do that, we end up with some sort of consequence.

There are massive side effects to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

There are massive side effects to anti-inflammatory drugs like prednisone.
