    GlossaryInflammation Reduction

    process of decreasing the body's immune response to injury

    Inflammation reduction refers to the process of decreasing the body's inflammatory response, which is the immune system's reaction to injury or infection. This can be achieved through medications like anti-inflammatory drugs, lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and regular exercise, or natural remedies like turmeric and omega-3 fatty acids. Reducing inflammation is crucial for managing conditions like arthritis, heart disease, and even certain types of hair loss, such as alopecia areata, where inflammation can damage hair follicles.
