> If low cholesterol is combined with slightly low [[thyroid]], the protective steroids aren't produced in normal amounts, and inflammatory processes develop. Connective tissue pain, waist fat, and constipation relate to the stress-[[inflammation]] processes, for example endotoxin slows the liver's detoxifying process, estrogen and [[serotonin]] signal defensive reactions that lead to cumulative problems. Sweet fruits are anti-inflammatory and help to keep the liver functioning, including keeping cholesterol up and keeping estrogen and cortisol under control. When estrogen is relatively high, tryptophan turns into [[serotonin]] and slows the [[thyroid]], lowers the temperature. Glycine is the main anti-inflammatory amino acid, and it can normally be made in adequate amounts, but some proteins, especially muscle meats, don't have enough Glycine in relation to tryptophan. Fruits and [[milk]] or cheese will usually provide a good balance of the main nutrients, but sometimes [[gelatin]] is very useful to balance the other proteins. The [[calcium]] content of [[milk]] and cheese is important for lowering [[inflammation]], and helps to prevent excess fat deposition. [[Sodium]] and [[vitamin K]] are closely involved in [[calcium]] metabolism.
