Although inflammation is a normal and healthy response that occurs in the body to protect us from bacteria and viruses, sometimes it gets out of control or serves no purpose.
It’s this unnecessary or surplus inflammation, which eventually becomes chronic, that is linked to a whole host of illnesses like asthma, allergies, heart disease, cancer, premature aging and more. Because of the far reaching consequences of this silent condition, some even consider inflammation to be the leading cause of death in the US!
Thankfully, through leading a healthy lifestyle and eating the right foods (and avoiding the wrong ones!), chronic inflammation can be cured or avoided.
One of the most important steps you can take to fight inflammation is to increase your intake of fruits and vegetables – with juicing being a great way to start on this road to better health.
While all fruits, vegetables and herbs are anti-inflammatory, some are more potent inflammation fighters than others.
