Have you or a loved one had sepsis? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Sepsis is one of the leading causes of death in the US and occurs when organs and tissues are damaged by the body’s immune response. In fact, 1 in 3 deaths in a hospital are due to sepsis. New research out of Portland State University suggests that diet may play a large role in developing the infection and it doesn’t look good for America. The western diet increases risk and severity of developing sepsis. Swap out your processed foods for fresh ones and add some exercise into your daily routine. Talk to your doctor if you have questions about your diet. This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, a leader in preventative and proactive medicine.
