My Interview in The Telegraph: Chronic Inflammation Affects All of Us
I was recently interviewed by The Telegraph to discuss something that affects everyone of us — chronic inflammation.
My journey into this field began with my own health struggles. From the age of 12, I faced severe health issues that eventually became life-threatening. Out of sheer necessity, I started developing a method to reduce chronic inflammation, not for anyone else at first, but simply to save my own life.
The original program focused on gut health and was designed to help me heal. I wanted to live, to be here, healthy and present, enjoying life with my children.
I adapted my approach to make it realistic and sustainable, allowing flexibility for treats, dining out, and even the occasional glass of wine. It had to fit real life — otherwise, it wouldn’t last.
After healing myself from two autoimmune diseases through this science-backed, anti-inflammatory lifestyle, and remaining in remission, pain-free and medication-free for over a decade, I founded Eat Burn Sleep to share what I had learned.
What began as a personal healing journey has become a comprehensive, evidence-based lifestyle method that now helps thousands of people worldwide reduce inflammation, restore balance, and reclaim their health.
Is Eat Burn Sleep for Chronic Inflammation Only?
I qualified in naturopathic nutrition after three years of study with one of the best nutrition schools in London to help everyone with chronic inflammation and/or in similar situations.
Yet this method isn’t just for when people find themselves chronically inflamed; it ensures optimal health for everyone. We are all likely to be inflamed in some way!
People who follow the plan but do not have conditions find themselves having more energy, better moods, clearer skin, better sleep, improved body composition, clearer cognitive thinking, and much more that help them work and play well.
All subscribers have noted that they can be the best versions of themselves, and everyone around them notices! I love reading the testimonials, as you can imagine.
Looking and feeling healthier is guaranteed if followed 80% of the time.
This proves that, even when we think we are incredibly healthy, extra guidance on gut health and inflammation management is essential.
Why Does Chronic Inflammation Affect All of Us?
Every non-communicable condition, meaning those that can’t be transmitted, is linked, in some way, to chronic inflammation.
From alopecia to bowel disorders to endometriosis to Hashimoto’s to migraines, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue/ME, IBS, psoriasis, the list of inflammation-related conditions is endless.
It often surprises people to learn that even fertility issues can be improved through the Eat Burn Sleep lifestyle. There are now so many Eat Burn Sleep babies, it’s truly amazing to witness!
On this platform, you’ll find a wealth of information about the nuances of chronic inflammation: why it develops, how to manage it, and most importantly, how to reduce it through sustainable, science-backed lifestyle changes.
Check out the videos, expert articles, and gut health resources, all designed to help you understand and take control of your health.
I’m on a mission to help people live with optimum health, because too many conditions are simply dulled down with medication, rather than treated systemically. And with so much convoluted information and so many faddy diets out there, it’s easy to feel confused about what truly works.
The Eat Burn Sleep method simplifies it all, natural, balanced, effective, and rooted in real science.
Becoming an Eat Burn Sleep Member is easy, and it’s the first step to transforming how you feel, inside and out.
Why do People Develop Digestive Conditions?
We all carry weak genes, and I have autoimmune problems in my family, but other factors can switch on those genes, and your immune response isn’t as robust.
I explain more in the article that what you eat, where you live, and how you live significantly impact your digestion.
Changes that disrupt your gut flora can create many painful and debilitating conditions.
Do Drugs Work for Inflammation?
Rather than tackling the underlying conditions, drugs are often prescribed.
What happens is that corticosteroid drugs given for conditions like I have (ulcerative colitis) are very good at masking the symptoms while taking them.
When you stop, the symptoms express themselves again.
The underlying inflammatory pathways remain open. The problem is that you can develop multiple autoimmune diseases once the inflammation pathways open.
Immunosuppressants that are dished out, too, shut down the immune system. Inflammation goes down artificially but deems the body vulnerable to viruses and other consequences of low immunity.
Also, drugs cause gut dysbiosis, creating more issues because you are in a never-ending cycle.
How can we Fight Inflammation?
I developed this anti-inflammatory gut health program to fight inflammation.
The right ingredients in our meals boost the diversity of our gut microbiome (the trillions of bacteria that live in the gastrointestinal tract) and keep inflammation in check.
You also need to adopt an anti-inflammatory lifestyle.
What has the Gut got to do with Inflammation?
The reason that having a healthy gut microbiome is essential in lowering inflammation is that 70 percent of our immune system is housed in the gut.
The brain-gut axis becomes harmonized by eating the right food at the right time, with anti-inflammatory movement, and practicing neuroplasticity exercises.
Inflammation is reduced, gut bacteria is balanced, the immune is strengthened, sleep is better quality, and our mental and physical well-being is optimized.
An anti-inflammatory lifestyle is the best way forward for everyone for long-term health! Here are a few nutritious recipes to show you what we eat here on Eat Burn Sleep:
Omelet: Mushrooms, Basil & Chives, Chicken and Avocado Salad, and Coconut and Cacao Loaf.
We also have almost 200 anti-inflammatory movements to help you get your best body ever!
