So, are you ready to embark on this exciting journey towards a healthier life?
When you hear the word “inflammation,” you probably immediately think of a swollen or reddened wound. It’s our most visible way of identifying that something is wrong with our body. But did you know that inflammation doesn’t just occur externally? It can also be an internal, often silent process that can have both beneficial and detrimental effects on our health.
1.1 Inflammation: A natural response
Inflammation is, at its core, our body's defensive response. When we get hurt, sick, or a foreign substance enters our body, our immune system responds by sending specialized cells to the affected area. This is inflammation in action—our body's attempt to protect and heal itself.
Imagine your body as a city. Inflammation would be like calling the fire department when there is a fire. The fire department arrives, controls the fire, and ensures that everything returns to normal. This is how our immune system works when faced with harmful agents: it sends out "firefighters" in the form of white blood cells to control the "emergency."
1.2 But what about chronic inflammation?
Now, what would happen if those firefighters, instead of leaving after putting out the fire, stayed on the scene and started spraying water everywhere, even when the flames were no longer burning? Well, this is what happens with chronic inflammation. The immune system remains in a constant state of alert, creating persistent inflammation that, instead of protecting us, begins to damage our tissues.
Chronic inflammation can be caused by a variety of factors, including autoimmune diseases, persistent allergies, an unhealthy diet, prolonged stress, and more. Unlike acute inflammation, which is a response to specific, temporary damage, chronic inflammation is persistent and often has no apparent cause.
1.3 Common symptoms of chronic inflammation
While chronic inflammation may be silent, there are some symptoms that may be indicative of its presence:
These are just a few examples, and if you experience any of these symptoms persistently, it is always advisable to consult a health professional.
1.4 Why should we care?
Untreated chronic inflammation can trigger or aggravate more serious diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's, among others. Hence the importance of identifying and treating it in time.
In the next chapters, I will introduce you to the wonderful relationship between diet and inflammation and how, with small changes in our eating habits, we can make a big difference in our health and well-being.
