Deep dives
All food can be considered inflammatory due to the generation of reactive molecules during energy production.
Technically, all food could be considered inflammatory. When you create energy, whether it's through daily activities or exercise, highly reactive molecules are produced that can damage cells. Inflammation is a natural response to heal this damage. Foods like blueberries and kale that are whole and unprocessed contain antioxidants that can neutralize these reactive molecules. However, it is important to note that the focus should be on the overall diet, rather than labeling individual foods as inflammatory.
