There is a strong connection between exercise and inflammation. Regular physical activity has anti-inflammatory effects, helping to reduce chronic inflammation in the body. Exercise stimulates the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, which can alleviate inflammation-related conditions, such as arthritis and heart disease. Conversely, excessive or intense exercise without adequate recovery may lead to temporary increases in inflammation. Balancing exercise routines with appropriate rest and recovery can help maintain optimal inflammatory responses, contributing to overall health and wellbeing.
