We call fat-producing toxins found in our everyday food, Obesogens (from the word Obese). Obesogens may contribute to weight gain. Common toxins include Preservatives, hormones, antibiotics, processed sugar, processed flour, artificial flavorings, artificial sweeteners, etc.

Fat cells are made up of loose connective tissue. These fat cells (or fatty tissue) produce something called cytokines - tiny secreted proteins that regulate immunities and inflammation.

A normal amount of body fat does not produce excess cytokines that result in chronic inflammation. But as fat cells grow larger, they produce more and more cytokines, leading to long-term inflammation.

Surrounding the fatty cells are other cells called macrophages, which also produce cytokines. As fat cells expand the proportion of these macrophages increases.

In overweight people, most inflammation-promoting cytokines come not from the fat cells, but from these macrophages. This excess production of macrophages, caused by extra fat, triggers chronic inflammation.

Chronic inflammation is often called
the "silent killer."

Temporary (or acute) inflammation is a necessary function of good health. You cut your finger, for example, and your immune system goes into action rushing white blood cells to the area to protect the finger from foreign invaders. The inflammation protects and helps nourish the injured finger back to health.

Chronic (long-term) inflammation, however, is another matter. Chronic inflammation is harmful to the body and may contribute to many diseases. There can be very few, if any, symptoms of chronic inflammation; hence the name the "silent killer."

Chronic inflammation smolders like an inactive volcano, then one day erupts with symptoms, but often it is too late, resulting in a heart attack, cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's, or other diseases.

There can be many things that trigger chronic inflammation, one major culprit is excess body fat.

By reducing fat in your body, you reduce the production of cytokines, which in turn reduces the incidence of chronic inflammation. Fat is not the only thing that causes chronic inflammation, but it is certainly one of the major triggers.

Other causes of chronic inflammation can include certain foods such as Processed Foods, Alcohol, Gluten (wheat barley, rye), Dairy, Sugar, and Fast Food. Stress, Infections, and some Medications can also cause chronic inflammation.

So, what can you do about the Silent Killer?

Periodic cleansing combined with concentrated cellular nutritional meal replacements, will actually help remove these Obesogens and body burden not to mention end up saving you money compared to your current dietary expenses.
