Anti-Inflammatory Nutrients

Meaning

These are specific dietary components that possess the biochemical capacity to modulate or suppress chronic, low-grade systemic inflammation within the body. Examples include omega-3 fatty acids, polyphenols, and certain vitamins, which act as essential cofactors in numerous cellular processes. Maintaining low inflammatory markers is critical for optimal endocrine function, as chronic inflammation can disrupt the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and impair hormone receptor sensitivity. Adequate intake of these compounds supports cellular homeostasis and long-term metabolic health.
