Hypertension, commonly referred to as "high blood pressure," is one of the most widespread and dangerous conditions globally.. While many are aware of risk factors like obesity, poor diet, and unhealthy lifestyles, the link between low-grade chronic inflammation and hypertension is less well-known.
The rotation diet, which forms the foundation of the GEK Lab methodology, is a type of diet that alternates different food groups throughout the week based on strictly scientific principles.
Its key feature is that it does not exclude any specific food from meals.
For a long time, ESR and CRP have been the primary biomarkers for assessing inflammation. However, these "acute-phase" proteins have limitations in specificity and sensitivity for identifying low-grade inflammation. Other biomarkers, such as BAFF and PAF, which are linked to specific immune pathways, are more accurate for this type of inflammation.
Inflammation is a physiological process that is, in itself, beneficial and essential for defending the body.
However, various factors—such as dietary imbalances or chronic viral infections—can lead to a persistent, chronic inflammatory state that underlies a wide range of diseases.
