Inflammation isn’t inherently bad—it’s the body’s natural way of repairing itself. Acute, or short-term, inflammation occurs when you hurt yourself or get sick, like when you get a cut, break a bone, or come down with a cold. But when you’re in a state of chronic inflammation—which can be triggered by eating unhealthy foods that stimulate an inflammatory response in the blood—it can lead to a whole host of health problems.
