If we are to live healthy into our
senior years, chronic inflammation must be dealt with.
Most of the diseases of aging are caused by chronic
inflammation. Chronic inflammation can be controlled
through diet which includes food and supplementation.
Age-associated chronic inflammation is
characterized by unresolved and uncontrolled inflammation with
multivariable low-grade, chronic and systemic responses that
exacerbate the aging process and age-related chronic diseases.
The inflammatory process is an
essential immunological defense system in living
organisms that has evolved to enhance

survival. Short-term, acute inflammation is
a first-line defense mechanism that acts against harmful agents,
such as pathogens, toxins, or allergens.
Under normal conditions, the tightly
coordinated actions of various defense components including
immune cells, endogenous anti-inflammatory agents, and tissue
remodeling processes enable the resolution of acute inflammation
by facilitating the elimination of pathogens, infected cells,
and repair to damaged tissues to restore body homeostasis.
However, when this intricate acute
inflammatory response fails to resolve and persists, more
defense components are mobilized to create a long-term
unresolved immune response known as chronic inflammation.
Chronic inflammation, which typically manifests itself in a
low-grade manner for a prolonged period, involves macrophage-
and lymphocyte-accumulated leukocytes, and various other
cellular components. It is important to recognize that this
chronic inflammation is causally associated with changes in the
cellular redox state and cell death signaling pathways.
