When the immune system suffers irritation, injury or infection, inflamma
tionoccurs as the first biological response. Various inflammatory cytokines, such as nitric oxide, interleukins, prostaglandin E2 are affected and try to counteract inflammation with an effect that is called "anti-inflammatory".
Components that aid in anti-inflammatory action are substances that can help eliminate or reduce inflammation in the body. Here are some examples:
Omega-3 Fatty Acids. Found in fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts, they can reduce inflammation.
Curcumin. The active ingredient in turmeric, known for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties.
Gingerols. Found in ginger, have anti-inflammatory effects.
Antioxidants. Such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and flavonoids, help fight inflammation.
Resveratrol. Found in grapes and red wine, has anti-inflammatory properties.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid. An antioxidant that can reduce inflammation.
Boswellia. An herb that has been used to reduce inflammation in conditions like arthritis.
Quercetin. A flavonoid found in many fruits and vegetables, known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
Green Tea. Rich in catechins, which have anti-inflammatory effects.
Magnesium. A mineral that can help reduce inflammation in the body.
Components that can contribute to or exacerbate inflammation include various factors that can increase inflammation in the body. Here are some examples
Saturated and Trans Fats. Found in fried foods, packaged snacks, and some animal products, they can promote inflammation.
Added Sugars. Found in sugary drinks, sweets, and snacks, they can stimulate inflammation.
Alcohol. Excessive consumption can increase inflammation in the body.
Processed Foods. Often rich in additives and preservatives that can trigger inflammation.
Gluten. For people with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, gluten can cause inflammation.
High Glycemic Foods. Like white bread and white rice, they can increase inflammation.
Omega-6 Fatty Acids. Found in many vegetable oils, they can promote inflammation if consumed in excess relative to omega-3s.
Lack of Sleep. Inadequate sleep can increase inflammation in the body.
Stress. Chronic stress can trigger and worsen inflammation.
Environmental Pollutants. Exposure to chemicals and pollutants can increase inflammation.
