Can These Morning Habits Help Prevent Inflammation?
How you start your morning can shape more than just your mood—it can also influence inflammation levels in your body.
We hear a lot about the negative effects of inflammation, but it’s not always a problem. Acute inflammation is a normal, short-lived response that helps your body heal from injury or fight off illness. Chronic inflammation, on the other hand, is more concerning. When it lingers over time, it can reduce our body’s ability to repair and heal, leading to increased risk of conditions like diabetes, heart disease and certain cancers.
The good news? Small, consistent habits—especially in the morning—can help keep chronic inflammation in check. Here are six simple inflammation-fighting habits to start your day.
