Chronic inflammation often develops gradually and contributes to various health problems, including joint pain, cardiovascular stress, and persistent fatigue despite adequate rest. Medical professionals and researchers recognize it as a common factor in conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease. Scientific evidence demonstrates that regular physical activity is an effective natural approach to addressing this issue. It reduces key indicators such as C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). During exercise, muscles produce substances that counteract inflammation, and the immune system achieves greater stability. Research supports these findings. For example, the study "Effect of exercise training on chronic inflammation," published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) indicates that ongoing physical activity lowers these indicators in multiple populations. Read on to know about exercises that can reduce inflammation significantly.
