Inflammation, what’s all the fuss about?
Inflammation is the latest buzzword in the health and wellness industry, but is it a fad or is it here to stay? Inflammation causes a role in anti-ageing, also known as “inflamm-ageing”. Janice Kiecolt-Glaser, professor at The Ohio State University College of Medicine talks about ‘inflamm-ageing’, being a “natural, age-related increase in inflammation,” she says. “Maintaining a healthy lifestyle reduces this trajectory and limits the low-grade inflammation that contributes to many diseases associated with ageing.”
But is inflammation all bad?
When you’re injured or in pain, the immune system fights bacteria and viruses to heal itself– this is a known as a “healthy” kind of inflammation and it disappears when the body has healed.
Then there’s chronic inflammation, which can cause long term damage on one’s overall wellbeing, often associated with health issues, such as heart disease, diabetes and Alzheimer’s.
How can you reduce inflammation in the body:
Reduce Stress
Decreasing levels of stress are good for lowering your bodies immune response and therefore, lowering inflammation. If we are repeatedly experiencing stress, or continuously activating your body to fight bacteria and viruses, which increases inflammation, eventually, this will affect the body’s ability to regulate inflammation naturally.
Tip: Massage the STRESS NO MORE GENIE into your upper neck and forehead and enjoy a 10-minute Cupping Massage in the comfort of your own home.
Eat a Mediterranean diet
There are so many different types of diets around. From Keto to Banting to vegetarian and Vegan. However, research has proven time and time again that a well-balanced diet of fresh fruit and vegetables, fibre and natural fats increases your vitality and your overall health.
Tip: A Mediterranean Diet is sustainable and delicious!
Increase circulation in the body
Studies have shown that there is a link between the amount of activity we do and the inflammatory levels in our bodies. It has been proven that people who are regularly active have lower levels of inflammation than others.
Tip: Add the CIRCUFLOW Genie and a 5-minute Cupping Therapy pre-workout to boost circulation and vitality.
Keep an eye on your Oral health
Gum diseases are caused by bacteria that grow in dental plaque, and they’ve been shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular disorders and other health issues. Oil Pulling is the easiest way to improve your oral health.
Tip: Try the Cocobaci 15-Day Oil Pulling program. Simply tear the sachet and squeeze the contents into your mouth, swirl for 10-minutes, spit out and smile!

The inflammation on my gums have been so terrible lately, I am adding the 15-Day Oil Pulling program to my cart right away! I have heard of amazing results from friends.

A lot of people often forget how inflammation can affect everything inside our bodies, which eventually shows on up our skin and places like our mouths. Eating right is so important because we need to fight inflammation all day, every day, even when we don’t think we have any inflammation. I love using the Mediterranean diet because it consists of all the anti-inflammatory foods!

My spa therapist actually recommended me to start having Bellabaci Cupping Therapy treatments as a way to treat my inflammation, and I must say it has been a life-changer! I would still be suffering if it weren’t for my therapist and of course Bellabaci’s amazing products.

Treating inflammation should be an everyday routine, even when you think you’re healthy as can be, which is why I absolutely looove Bellabaci’s products, all the essential oils treat inflammation some or other way. Just amazing!
