Understanding Inflammation: The Key to Your Health.
Learn how inflammation affects your body, how it can be measured, and how UF18 helps you take control.
What is Inflammation?
Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury or infection. It is an essential part of the immune system, designed to protect and heal the body.
However, when inflammation persists or becomes chronic, it can contribute to a wide range of health issues, from arthritis to heart disease
Discover how reducing inflammation improves your overall health.
Acute Inflammation
Your Body's Natural Defense.
Acute inflammation is a short-term immune response that occurs immediately after an injury or infection. Its purpose is to protect and heal the body.
Rapid onset within minutes to hours.
Classic signs: redness, heat, swelling, pain, and loss of function.
Involvement of immune cells like neutrophils.
Acute inflammation eliminates harmful stimuli, supports tissue repair, and restores normal function.
Chronic Inflammation:
A Hidden Threat to Your Health
Chronic inflammation is a prolonged inflammatory response that continues to activate the immune system, even when no threat exists.
Causes
Persistent infections.
Autoimmune conditions.
Lifestyle factors (e.g., poor diet, lack of exercise, stress).
Symptoms
Fatigue
Persistent pain.
Digestive issues.
If left unmanaged, chronic inflammation increases the risk of serious conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.
