Overview

The Inflammation Switch Modern chronic diseases aren't just random or due to bad luck. They come from the body's natural defence system, which used to keep humans safe but is now turning on at the wrong time and staying on for too long. What helped our ancestors survive harsh conditions like cold and hunger is now causing problems like excessive inflammation, weight gain, and illness. The Inflammation Switch is the first book to explain that many modern illnesses are all linked to one ancient system that was meant to protect the body during danger. This system was designed to keep energy, slow down healing, store fat, and stay alert for infections. These were not mistakes; they were necessary for survival. But today, this same system is constantly active, and it shows up as chronic inflammation through the immune system, metabolism, and other body processes. Back in ancient times, humans faced long periods of cold and not enough food. To survive, the body had to save energy, slow down healing, store fat, and stay on high alert. These responses were important for living. Now, if these responses are always active, they cause chronic inflammation. Many diseases that medicine treats as separate are actually different ways this one system is acting when it's not turned off. Different people adapted to stress in different ways. Some changes affected the immune system, others influenced how the body stores fat, builds calcium, or develops the brain. But when these systems are overused, they all lead to the same issue, chronic inflammation. Autoimmune diseases, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and brain-related issues aren't separate. They are all expressions of the same immune system pushed too far. The same system can cause different problems in men and women. This book is based on ideas from evolution, the immune system, genetics, and real-world medical observations. The Inflammation Switch gives a clear, unified explanation for why so many people today suffer from chronic illness and why treating just the symptoms often doesn't work. If you want to understand why your immune system gets too active, why inflammation stops your body from healing and losing weight, and how to fix the root problem, this book is for you. The Inflammation Switch offers a fresh way to think about disease. This book explains how many modern health problems can be traced back to a single issue: an immune system that never stops being on alert. What was once a helpful survival response is now causing long-term inflammation when it doesn't turn off. When the immune system stays overactive, inflammation spreads through the body. Your metabolism slows down. You gain more fat. Your body stops repairing and healing itself. Over time, this same problem shows up as very different health issues in different people. Not because the diseases are separate, but because the same system is acting out in different ways. If you're tired of managing symptoms, struggling with weight that won't go down, or feeling like your diagnosis doesn't explain how you really feel, this book offers a clearer path forward. THE INFLAMMATION SWITCH The Root Cause of Chronic Disease and How to Shut It Down Modern illness isn't broken biology. It's survival biology that's been turned up too high.
