We all want to be at a weight where we feel comfortable in our skin, be strong enough to get through the day energetically, be as physically and mentally healthy as possible, and reduce our risk of the most common diseases plaguing the world. Yet, this is much harder to accomplish than we would like.

Most of us have some blind spots when it comes to seeing ourselves as others do, whether it's good or bad. Even if their weight is higher than recommended, they feel they really don't have any weight to lose. Why it is important to lose weight? A modest weight loss of five to 10 percent of your total body weight is likely to produce health benefits, such as improvements in blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and blood sugars. Being overweight increases your risk of health conditions such as heart problems, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer.

Heart disease, diabetes, weight gain, and chronic pain. These all share one common attribute: They are frequently caused or worsened by chronic inflammation. While inflammation may be an important part of the immune system, with the modern world pushing an abundance of sugar, refined grains, artificial ingredients, preservatives, and food dyes into our diets, our body’s natural inflammation fights back. This fight causes increased levels of long-term inflammation that are known to damage our own cells, causing and worsening disease in the process.
