    Your adrenal glands produce cortisol, which helps keep inflammation under control. Prednisone is a synthetic corticosteroid that’s about four times more potent than cortisol, so it can reduce inflammation very quickly. It can also suppress your body’s natural cortisol production, affecting adrenal function even after you stop taking it.


    Prednisone can also affect your body’s mineral balance. Sodium can rise while potassium decreases, potentially contributing to fluid retention and high blood pressure.


    Beyond reducing inflammation, prednisone can also suppress normal immune function. The longer you take prednisone, the greater the potential effect on your immune system.


    For autoimmune disease, prednisone doesn’t address the underlying cause. It temporarily suppresses the immune response and inflammation. Prednisone side effects can include bone loss, blood sugar problems, muscle loss, eye problems, mood changes, and many more.

    Walking is one of the simplest ways to support your overall health, but a few small changes can make it even more effective.


    Walking benefits include:

    • Supports cardiovascular health

    • Supports metabolic health

    • Supports brain health and cognitive function

    • Promotes better mental health

    • Improves sleep quality

    • Supports a healthy body composition

    • Strengthens muscles and joints

    • Helps reduce stress

    • Supports immune function

    • Supports eye health


    Some people focus so much on their step count that they overlook the quality of those steps. Varying your walking pace and terrain can help you get more out of your walking exercise.


    Walking after meals can be more beneficial than walking before. A 10-minute walk after eating can help your body clear excess glucose from the blood.


    Walking outside can boost the benefits even further by adding sun exposure. If possible, walk with a friend or family member to add the benefits of social connection.

    LDL is not cholesterol! LDL is a lipoprotein made by the liver that transports cholesterol and other important compounds throughout the body, including vitamin E, carotenoids, and CoQ10. More than half of the people who have a heart attack have LDL levels that fall within the normal range.


    Not all LDL particles behave the same. Large, buoyant LDL is nonpathogenic, while small, dense LDL is more closely associated with inflammation and cardiovascular risk.


    Many heart attacks can occur with few or no warning signs. Grip strength offers insight into overall cardiovascular health, and even your hands can reveal signs that may be connected to your risk of heart disease.


    Metabolic disease goes far beyond difficulty losing weight. It reflects problems at the cellular level, where cells struggle to produce and use energy efficiently. Mitochondrial dysfunction is closely connected with chronic conditions, including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and type 2 diabetes.


    Plaque, cholesterol, and calcium are only part of the picture. Many heart attacks and strokes ultimately occur when a blood clot blocks blood flow, making clot formation an important part of understanding heart disease and protecting long-term heart health.

    Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats, and many people aren’t getting enough of them. Fish oil and cod-liver oil are great ways to boost your omega-3 intake. Cod-liver oil also contains vitamins A and D, making it a particularly nutrient-dense option. Food sources of omega-3s include fatty fish, sardines, grass-fed beef, organ meats, and eggs.


    Two of the most important omega-3s are EPA and DHA. EPA can help reduce inflammation, while DHA supports brain health and cognitive function.


    Omega-3 fatty acids help support the following:

    • Dry eyes

    • Dermatitis

    • Arthritis

    • Macular degeneration

    • Arrhythmias

    • High blood pressure

    • Fatty liver


    Omega-3s also support calcium absorption and may even help promote better sleep.
