Inflammation occurs when conditions such as fever trigger the body to call on immune cells (i.e. Neutrophils) to to remove damaged tissues. Various nutritional interventions have been recommended in recent research to combat inflammation throughout the body. These include the following:
- Increase fruit & vegetable consumption
- Reduce intake of the "bad" fats: trans fats and saturated fats
- Increase omega 3 consumption (i.e. salmon, walnuts)
