Inflammation: A root cause of chronic disease

Inflammation is the way a body reacts to an injury or infection. In small amounts, inflammation is good for you, but excessive inflammation that continues over time can become chronic and lead to deadly conditions like heart disease, diabetes and cancer. The good news? Kevin J.
