Inflammation in the body is a normal response to fighting disease, damage and infection. Inflammation can become quite extreme and prolonged when not addressed, impacting daily life and leading to a host of compounding conditions as it becomes chronic. You can think of this chronic inflammation as a car alarm for the body. Invaders get in and inflammation sounds an alarm, your immune system responds and will eventually disarm the alarm. The alarm could be set off by a variety of short-term environmental or physiological stimuli.
There is another more insidious stimuli that is constantly triggering your alarm on a daily basis: food. Recent research is pointing to what we eat and chances are you; on a daily basis are consuming inflammatory and potentially damaging foods. Lets take a look at some of the biggest offending foods.

So-called “energy drinks” litter the shelves in health food stores and grocery stores. Each brand promises to deliver the energy boost you need for workouts or just to make it through the day.
The sad truth is that most commercial drinks and drink powders come with a steep price to your health.
Most of the popular brands contain stimulants such as caffeine and high levels of sugar. They make you feel jittery and wired, with a crash that comes soon after.
If you wake up feeling tired and groggy, suffer from an afternoon crash, or simply live with a general feeling of lethargy – you are not alone.

If there is anything society has come to realize over the last century, it is that women are just as powerful, smart, ambitious, and capable as men. And while society as a whole is still catching up as far as true equality, the facts are evident when you look at some of the most incredible and influential people today.
When it comes to fitness, however, men and women are not the same. The natural, physiological differences necessitate unique approaches to achieve optimal results. While the fundamental science behind attaining a shredded, lean physique is basically the same for both sexes, the exact steps and application require careful consideration.
