They discuss the distinction between acute and chronic inflammation, emphasising the importance of addressing underlying causes such as obesity and high blood sugar levels. They also highlight the role of healthy lifestyle choices, including exercise, sleep, and a diverse diet rich in plant polyphenols, in managing inflammation.
