Delicious remedies: Relieve gut inflammation with these 20 healthy snacks
05/16/2019 // Zoey Sky // Views

Acute inflammation is a natural bodily process that occurs when you're hurt or ill. However, chronic inflammation can cause more harm than good. If you suffer from chronic gut inflammation, try some gut-friendly snacks to ease your condition.

Acute and chronic inflammation

Inflammation is your body’s way of fighting things that can harm it, like injuries, infections, or toxins. As your body tries to heal itself, it releases chemicals that trigger a response from the immune system. This response includes the release of antibodies and proteins, along with increased blood flow to the damaged area.

This whole process will only last from a few hours to a few days during acute inflammation. Acute inflammation usually causes noticeable symptoms like redness, pain, or swelling.

On the other hand, chronic inflammation occurs when this response lingers and leaves your body stuck in a constant state of alertness. In time, chronic inflammation can negatively affect your tissues and organs. It is also linked to conditions such as asthma and cancer.

The symptoms of chronic inflammation are more subtle, and they often include:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Chest pain
  • Fatigue
  • Fever
  • Mouth sores
  • Rashes

These symptoms can be mild or severe, and they may last from several months to several years. Chronic inflammation can be caused by several factors:

  • An autoimmune disorder, which makes your immune system mistakenly attack healthy tissue
  • Long-term exposure to irritants (e.g., industrial chemicals or polluted air)
  • Brighteon.TV

  • Untreated causes of acute inflammation (e.g., infection or injury)
