Swelling and discomfort in an inflamed area are often signs that your body's immune cells have mounted a defence against germs or injuries. Inflammation is a natural response to harm or injury, with immune cells working diligently to clear the way. However, when these immune cells turn against the body, they can cause harm to tissues and circulatory systems throughout nearly every organ. Over time, continuous low-grade inflammation can exacerbate conditions like dementia, cancer, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and more. The solution? A natural approach – the anti-inflammatory diet.
