Inflammation is a body’s protective response to various types of injuries and infections. It is a natural process that helps the body heal. However, persistent chronic inflammation can cause several health problems. So, what makes the inflammation persist? Do you know some of your favorite foods can induce inflammation? The body views some of these foods as strange; hence, it mobilizes white blood cells to destroy them. Learn about the types of these foods to modify your diet and avoid inflammation. The ‘Inflammation Book’ explores the latest research on the causes and mechanisms of inflammation. It gives readers a fundamental understanding of inflammation and its impact on overall health. Moreover, they will learn about the different types of inflammation and how they affect our body systems, including the nervous system. If you are looking for a comprehensive guide to understanding inflammation at the cellular and organ level and its implication on your health, this book is for you.
