What is inflammation in body ?
Inflammation is the body's natural response to injury, infection, or harmful stimuli. It is a complex biological process that helps protect and heal the body by eliminating the cause of harm and repairing damaged tissues. Inflammation can be categorized as:
Acute Inflammation
- Duration: Short-term, lasting from a few hours to a few days.
- Purpose: To protect the body and initiate healing.
Chronic Inflammation
- Duration: Long-term, lasting for weeks, months, or even years.
- Purpose: Often a malfunctioning immune response or exposure to harmful substances.
When inflammation is excessively high or prolonged in the body, it can lead to serious health problems, including tissue damage, impaired organ function, and the development of chronic diseases.
Symptoms of Excessive Inflammation:
- Persistent fatigue
- Chronic pain in muscles or joints
- Depression or anxiety
- Digestive issues (bloating, diarrhea, or constipation)
- Skin issues like rashes or acne
What Causes High Inflammation?
- Poor Diet: Excess sugar, refined carbs, and trans fats promote inflammation.
- Stress: Chronic stress triggers the release of pro-inflammatory hormones.
- Environmental Toxins: Pollution, chemicals, and smoking.
- Autoimmune Conditions: The immune system attacks the body’s own tissues.
