Inflammation is your body's natural protective response to an injury or infection. It helps your body remove harmful stimuli and initiate the healing process.
When tissue gets injured, the immune system releases white blood cells and chemical messengers to the site of injury. This causes redness, heat, swelling and pain - all signs of acute inflammation.
Chronic inflammation happens when this response lingers, even without an ongoing threat like an infection. It can increase the risk for diseases like cancer, diabetes, arthritis and heart disease. Factors like poor diet, stress and environmental toxins contribute to chronic inflammation.
Infections from bacteria, viruses or fungi
Injuries and wounds
Toxins from pollutants or unhealthy foods
Stress
