Inflammation

If you’ve ever had a minor cut or scrape on your skin, it’s common to notice swelling, redness, and pain at the affected site. This is the body’s way of initiating the healing process and prevents further damage. This kind of acute inflammation is a healthy response. Chronic inflammation, however, puts you at risk for developing life-altering diseases.

Inflammation is the body’s natural response to illness, trauma, and stress. To defend itself from further damage caused by foreign organisms, toxins, excess heat, or injury, the affected area is flooded with blood carrying healing antibodies.

Chronic inflammatory conditions are often slow to initiate, but can cause progressive tissue damage. Diseases with strong links to chronic inflammation include arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, autoimmune diseases, and cancer.

Your body’s inflammatory response is affected by your diet and lifestyle habits. Avoiding pro-inflammatory foods (processed meats, hydrogenated oils, refined sugars and carbohydrates), getting plenty of rest, and exercising regularly promotes the right kind of inflammatory response.
