On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared kicks off a 4 part series challenging the way we think about symptoms. Are fever, inflammation, and pain problems to eliminate, or intelligent responses designed to protect and repair the body? Jared explores why the body creates these signals, what they may be trying to accomplish, and what can happen when we automatically suppress them. He examines fever and immune response, inflammation and tissue repair, pain as protective communication, and the widespread use of acetaminophen, NSAIDs, and opioids. You’ll also hear the troubling history of Vioxx and OxyContin and why understanding the cause behind a symptom matters. This episode offers a different framework – listen to what your body is telling you before simply trying to silence the signal.
