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.
