Description of Inflammation

Causes of Inflammation

Inflammation can be caused by a number of factors that can damage cells but is broadly divided into :

1. Physical – can be mechanical as in a car accident injury or assault or environmental like severe cold and heat (burns).
2. Chemical – for example : acid ‘burns’, drugs, venom.
3. Infection – bacteria, viruses, fungi and other parasites
4. Ischemia – lack of or restricted blood supply which may eventually lead to death of tissue (necrosis) known as an infarct.
5. Immune – autoimmune conditions and allergies.

Common Treatments Include

Treatment for inflammation in the body can be different from individual to individual. Besides that, it also depends on the influenced area, how severe the condition and other aspects. A treatment that is considered the best and most effective for someone can influence differently on another person.

However, taking advantage from the combination of methods is essential. This approach involves things like consuming vitamin supplements, having a healthy diet and taking some medications.

A Daily Regimen for Whole Body Wellness & Prevention

Use our caplets as a daily regimen to maintain a slightly-alkaline state (which all diseases hate) in cells throughout your body  It will also enhance your recreational or competitive physical performance, increase endurance, reduce muscle soreness and accelerate muscle recovery after exercise.*

• Daily Peak Performance 120-Count Caplets
• Daily Peak Performance 180-Count Caplets

Turn Your Drinking Water Into a Health “Booster”

Most tap water and, yes, most bottled water - despite its advantages - is acidic, which further contributes to acid build-up in your body. Whatever your water source, transform it to an alkaline state by dissolving our AlkaPlex granules in it. It’s also effective dissolved in juices and energy drinks - in fact, as a bonus, it takes the acidic edge off of the taste of many beverages…even coffee and wine.*

Drinking alkaline liquids is especially important before, during and after exercise for the reasons stated above for our caplets. Think of alkaline water as a fast-acting “booster” that complements your regimen of caplets.

(Note: When you mix the granules in  may observe some small, undissolved white specs - about the size of table salt crystals - floating in the water. They are hard bits of the calcium that serves as a “carrier” for the other alkalizing essential minerals in the AlkaPlex compound. They are tasteless and completely harmless.)
