We've all heard the adages of 'age is just a number' and 'you're only as old as you feel' - but what if it was actually true? Inflammageing is the word being used to describe almost 25 years of research into how inflammation affects us as we age.
Every individual is unique and experiences ageing differently, but some of us will find we are ageing physically and mentally faster than the numbers on our birthday cake would suggest. While chronological ageing is inevitable, some conditions can accelerate our physical and biological age - including inflammation caused by lifestyle habits, diet, medical conditions, and hormonal changes.
