In the short term, it helps our bodies to fight infections or any foreign pathogens, but if inflammation becomes chronic then it can result in any number of chronic diseases, like diabetes, cancer, or heart disease. That’s why it’s important to keep in mind ways to fight inflammation.
“Excessive inflammatory responses can result in chronic diseases,” says Paulina Lee, RD a registered dietitian and the founder of Savvy Stummy. “There’s increasing recognition between inflammation and its link to chronic diseases. Therefore, it is important to regulate inflammation as part of our healthy lifestyle habits to prevent or manage disease.”
