Inflammation is the body’s immediate response to injury. It enables a variety of blood cells to flood the site of the injury-platelets to stop bleeding, red blood cells to nourish healthy cells, and white blood cells to clear up damaged cells and fight infections. However, without adequate levels of many nutrients, healing cannot be completed and the inflammatory response cannot be turned off.
