Inflammation and Aging

Inflammation is a major driver behind chronic diseases and aging, often linked to issues within the gut. The concept of "inflammaging" highlights how a compromised microbiome contributes to various health problems. A leaky gut allows harmful substances to enter the bloodstream, triggering an immune response that can lead to food sensitivities and other inflammatory conditions. A poor diet, rich in processed foods and low in fiber, plays a significant role in exacerbating these gut issues.
