Re: "General inflammation in the body" -- genuinely curious, do you have a source available for this? Not implying this is wrong, merely this seems rather strange to me and out of the mainstream (similar to the claim that autism is caused by inflammation). Again, I am not claiming this wrong -- merely I've yet to hear any actual RSI suffers, MDs, or ergo specialists bring up this theory. I can see some indirect link, e.g., high calorie diet and great deal of processed carbs leading to type diabetes-II which leads to general aches and pains, however.

Sure, here are some references for you to dig through. First, by definition RSI is an inflammatory response. So, here's a good overview of what is meant by "inflammation" in the body: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/inflammation/ http://www.marksdailyapple.com/inflammation/ And here are studies related to the causes of inflammation I mentioned: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17402291?dopt=Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17402291?dopt=Abstract http://jn.nutrition.org/content/135/3/562.full http://jn.nutrition.org/content/135/3/562.full http://www.nature.com/ajg/journal/vaop/ncurrent/abs/ajg2010487a.html http://www.nature.com/ajg/journal/vaop/ncurrent/abs/ajg20104... http://scienceblog.com/40178/poor-sleep-quality-increases-inflammation-community-study-finds/ http://scienceblog.com/40178/poor-sleep-quality-increases-in... http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20036931 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20036931

  It is not by definition inflammatory. It is a pain syndrome that MAY have an inflammatory component. You have a point, but this is the kind of single-cause, worked for me attitude the article warns about it and does people a disservice.
