Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury or infection, but chronic inflammation can contribute to a variety of health issues, including arthritis, heart disease, and diabetes. Common factors that can trigger inflammation include poor diet, stress, lack of exercise, and exposure to environmental toxins. Treatment options for inflammation may include anti-inflammatory medications, dietary changes to include more anti-inflammatory foods, stress management techniques, regular exercise, and in some cases, medical interventions. Consulting with a healthcare provider can help determine the most suitable approach for managing inflammation.
