Inflammation and eicosanoids like PGE2.

Inflammation is caused by various "bad" eicosanoids Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in particular.

Levels of pain are also increased by PGE2.

So what are these eicosanoids.

Eicosanoids are "master hormones" produced in every living cell in your body which directly or indirectly control nearly every function of your body.


The balance of "good" and "bad" eicosanoids is crucial to your health.

If you have too many "bad" eicosanoids this will increase pain and inflammation.

So improving the eicosanoid balance in your body should help reduce the pain and inflammation in your shoulder.

Non steroidal anti inflammatories and corticosteroids medical professionals prescribe for inflammation and pain are simply eicosanoid inhibitors.

But there are more natural and less risky ways to improve your body's eicosanoid balance.

Diet and lifestyle changes can have the most profound effect on your eicosanoid balance.

Supplementing with fish oil also helps as the EPA in fish oil is the major building block of good eicosanoids.

I suggest you read the free book From depresssion to glorious health in six steps (free download at www.geocities.com/glorioushealth ) and subscribe to the free online health course "Reversing all chronic disease" by sending a blank email to glorioushealth@freeautobot.com

The book and the course describe in more detail exactly how diet and lifestyle can improve eicosanoid balance and reduce pain and inflammation.

I hope something there helps you.
