Conclusions

Introduction to anti-inflammatory nutrition

The anti-inflammatory diet is a nutritional approach that aims to reduce inflammation in the body, which can be associated with many chronic and degenerative conditions. This type of diet focuses on consuming foods that are known to reduce inflammation in the body, while limiting or avoiding foods that can promote it.

Adopting an anti-inflammatory diet can help reduce chronic inflammation in the body, improve metabolism and reduce the risk of developing chronic inflammatory diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and certain cancers. The goal of the anti-inflammatory diet is to favor foods that have been shown to reduce inflammation in the body and avoid those that can increase it. This type of diet is based on a variety of whole foods that are rich in nutrients such as antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids, which are known for their anti-inflammatory properties.

Chapter 1 Inflammation and health: Categories of existing inflammation

D

nflammation is a natural response of the body to damage or irritation that serves to protect, repair and heal the damaged tissue. Although it is a fundamental mechanism for healing, chronic or excessive inflammation can have a negative impact on health. In this chapter, we will explore the main categories of inflammation present and their impact on health.

Before we talk about the different categories of inflammation, let's understand what this term refers to.

What is inflammation?

We often associate inflammation with something negative such as pain, injury or discomfort. However, it is important to recognize that inflammation is actually a vital defense mechanism of the body. When the body detects an attack, whether from the outside (such as an infection from bacteria or viruses) or from within (such as cell damage), it triggers an inflammatory response.

This process aims to eliminate the cause of the aggression and initiate the process of repairing the damaged tissue. Therefore, in a way, inflammation is a positive reaction of the body that aims to restore balance and repair damage. Without this defense mechanism, our body would be more susceptible to disease and injury. It is important to understand the fundamental role of inflammation in maintaining health and promoting healing.

When the body detects irritation, inflammation or infection, it activates a series of defense mechanisms known as the inflammatory response. These mechanisms include changes in blood flow, increased permeability of blood vessels and the migration of fluids, proteins and white blood cells (leukocytes) from the bloodstream to the site of tissue damage or infection.

The aim of these processes is to isolate and restrict the affected area, eliminate the pathogen or irritant and initiate the process of tissue repair. The increased blood flow brings more blood to the damaged area, which can lead to redness and swelling. The increased permeability of blood vessels allows proteins and white blood cells to penetrate the vessel walls and reach the site of inflammation, where they play a key role in fighting infection or irritation.

Inflammation is therefore an essential mechanism for life and can be triggered by a variety of threats, including not only biological agents such as bacteria and viruses, but also chemical and physical threats. For example, inflammation can be triggered by physical injuries such as cuts, burns or muscle trauma, as well as by irritating or harmful chemical substances. Regardless of the type of threat, the body responds with an inflammatory response aimed at neutralizing the attacker, repairing damage and restoring balance. This defense mechanism is crucial for the survival and health of the organism, as it protects against damage from external and internal influences and promotes recovery and healing.

Can you tell for yourself that you are suffering from inflammation?

It is possible to tell if you are inflamed without necessarily needing a doctor or specific tests. Inflammation can manifest itself through a number of symptoms and signs that may be obvious even to a non-specialist.

However, a small exception must be made: Oxidative stress cannot be assessed acutely without appropriate blood tests.

Here are some common symptoms associated with
