Inflammation <\/a>is the body\u2019s natural response to infection, injury or harmful irritants, but when it becomes chronic, it can quietly contribute to a range of health problems, from digestive issues to metabolic and heart-related conditions. While factors such as stress, poor sleep <\/a>and a sedentary lifestyle can fuel inflammation, nutrition also plays a major role.
