Inflammation: Root Cause or Response

In this episode of The Original Medicine Podcast, Dr. MG McCullough explores the nature of inflammation. Is it the root cause of disease, or a response to deeper imbalances in the body?

Drawing from thousands of years of Chinese medicine wisdom, MG explains how

inflammation is a signal, not the problem itself. By addressing the root cause—whether emotional, dietary, or energetic—we can restore health, reduce chronic pain, and cultivate long-term wellbeing.

This episode is essential listening for anyone seeking to understand how Classical Chinese Medicine can transform chronic inflammation, migraines, or other pain conditions into true healing.

Key Takeaways

Inflammation is a response, not the root cause of disease.
Symptoms indicate depletion of vital resources (Jing, blood, fluids).
Emotional trauma and chronic stress create heat in the body, driving inflammation.
Avoid “inflamers” like coffee, alcohol, spicy foods, and processed ingredients.
Warm, cooked, balanced meals support digestion and restore energy.
Emotional regulation, journaling, Qi Gong, and meditation help shift the body’s energy.
