Supplements Suppress Inflammation

Inflammation is a normal response in the body that helps protect against infection, toxins, damaged cells, or radiation. Its goal is to remove harmful substances and restore balance in the tissues. However, inflammation can sometimes persist beyond its usefulness.

Chronic inflammation can lead to various diseases, such as atherosclerosis, obesity, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, neurodegenerative diseases, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Certain supplements can help manage inflammation. Omega-3 fatty acids, for example, have been shown to reduce inflammatory markers. Curcumin, found in turmeric, has demonstrated similar benefits to an NSAID in patients with osteoarthritis. Ginger and Boswellia contain compounds that lower inflammation by suppressing the production of inflammatory products. Quercetin, an antioxidant, has been shown to reduce inflammatory biomarkers and oxidative stress, especially when combined with vitamin C.

Incorporating these supplements into your diet can help manage chronic inflammation and support overall health.
