Chronic inflammation isn’t just about food, supplements, or willpower—it’s about regulation. In this episode, Dr. Joshua Redd and I explore the most overlooked contributors to chronic inflammation, including blood sugar and gut health to stress and nervous system load. You’ll walk away with realistic steps to support your body instead of fighting it.
