Chronic low-grade inflammation increases with age and contributes to many diseases including respiratory conditions. Understanding inflammation helps contextualize why antioxidants matter.
Aging (inflammaging), excess body fat (especially visceral), sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, chronic stress, smoking and environmental pollutants all contribute to elevated inflammatory markers.
Systemic inflammation can increase airway reactivity, reduce lung function and increase susceptibility to respiratory infections. It compounds the natural age-related decline in lung capacity.
Regular exercise, anti-inflammatory diet (Mediterranean pattern), maintaining healthy weight, stress management and targeted supplementation. Turmeric in Lungora provides curcuminoid anti-inflammatory support as one component of this strategy.
