Chronic Inflammation

Chronic inflammation is a prolonged immune response that can occur when the body continuously reacts to irritants, infections, or injuries. Unlike acute inflammation, which helps heal injuries short-term, chronic inflammation can last for months or even years. This ongoing state can damage healthy tissues and is linked to various health issues, such as heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis. Factors contributing to chronic inflammation include poor diet, stress, lack of exercise, and environmental toxins. Managing these factors can help reduce inflammation and improve overall health.
