While genetics, stress, and other lifestyle factors can contribute to inflammation, our diet plays a large role in whether we remain plagued or unfazed by chronic inflammation. By adding certain types of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seafood to our diet, and eliminating processed food and added sugars, we not only end diminishing the inflammatory process, but also leading the way to a healthier heart, lower cholesterol, and overall health and well-being.
