INFLAMMATION IS A hidden disease, but while we have a host of diets and supplements to fight inflammation, we don't know why it happens. What are the causes behind it? Dr Suranjit Chatterjee, senior consultant, internal medicine, Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, says: "Inflammation is the body's natural response to injury or stress, aiding healing and defence. However, chronic inflammation, often caused by poor diet, smoking, alcohol, and inactivity, can harm the body. Stress, pollution, toxins, and infections also trigger inflammation, while conditions like obesity, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders exacerbate it. Genetics may increase susceptibility as well. While diets and supplements like omega-3s and antioxidants help reduce inflammation, addressing root causes through healthier lifestyles and stress management is key to preventing its long-term effects. Recognising and mitigating triggers is crucial for overall well-being."
