Page Contents: Inflammation can reach your brain, with devastating results. Read on to learn what can cause brain inflammation, the long-term consequences of chronic inflammation, and how to reduce neurological inflammation. The Inflamed Brain Inflammation is the body’s first line of immune response. Upon injury or invasion, macrophages, leukocytes, and other innate immune cells rush to the scene. A cascade of cell signaling pathways is activated in the blood to recruit more immune cells, remove the invader or damaged tissue, and increase blood flow to the affected area. The brain works a bit differently. The blood vessels within the central nervous system (CNS) are separated from peripheral circulation by a very restrictive barrier, called the blood–brain barrier (BBB). The typical blood immune cells can’t pass the BBB....

Page Contents: Astoundingly, one in seven Americans suffer from an autoimmune disease, and over 80 different autoimmune diseases have been identified: Hashimoto’s disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes, lupus, and many, many more.

But in an autoimmune disease, the body mistakes one or more types of its own cells as invaders and attacks itself. For example, in type 1 diabetes, the body targets beta cells in the pancreas. In Hashimoto’s disease, the body attacks thyroid tissue. In many cases, proteins or antigens in specific foods can trigger the body to attack itself. The AIP diet was developed as a way to help manage autoimmune disease and determine individual...
