On Inflammation with Dr. Harrington

Thank you to Organic Radiance Skincare for interviewing me on Inflammation.  Chronic inflammation, not acute, is something that we should be concerned about, and something we can make small changes in our lives to try to avoid.  What changes you may ask?  Check out the interview to find out!


Here's what Candice at Organic Radiance had to say about it: (original blog post here)

"This interview will give you an understanding of what chronic inflammation is, why we need to be concerned with it, and what we can do about it.

 We talk about chronic inflammation with Dr. MaryAnne Harrington, one of the doctors at Maximum Performance Chiropractic in Costa Mesa, CA. MaryAnne specializes in the treatment and rehabilitation of injuries using conservative and natural therapies. She holds a number of certifications, including Active Release Technique (A.R.T.) nutritional counseling, work ergonomics and wellness, as well as being a yoga instructor.

The interview is in written format, and you can download the pdf version for free here:

"We need inflammation. However, what we don’t want is chronic inflammation.  Chronic inflammation is something that lasts for several months or even years.  It can come from many different sources, like failure to get rid of what was causing the inflammation in the first place or a chronic irritant of low intensity.  Chronic inflammation can also come from an autoimmune response due to a self antigen, meaning that the immune system is reacting to something that is in the body that it things is a foreign object. So that is the type of inflammation that we want to be mindful with."
