Inflammation vs inflammation
Yesterday a patient of mine asked why should we fight inflammation. Is it a good thing? And I realized that many people know about anti-inflammatory diets and foods before understading what inflammation is.
So, do we have to fight it?
In simple words, there is acute inflammation (good) and chronic inflammation (bad).
The acute inflammation is a natural response of our body when faced with a patogen (bacteria, virus etc) or a physical trauma (you cut your finger while cooking). This type of inflammation is easily recognizable: heat, redness, pain.
The chronic inflammation is when the body fights an invisible "possible" enemy, so no symptoms, no clear signs, however it is called chronic for a reason: it lasts for weeks, months or even years until one realize it is there. We have to fight this one! So here where an anti-inflammatory diets comes at hand.
Have a great weekend and enjoy your food !
