Recap: What is inflammation and how can I control it | Prof. Philip Calder

Today we’re discussing inflammation.

We hear this word a lot from guests on the ZOE podcast. It’s always coming up when we ask questions about health conditions like Alzheimer's, cancer or heart disease. 

It’s clearly very important, however many of us still don’t fully understand what inflammation really is.

Professor Phillip Calder is here to break down inflammation and share tips on what we should eat to keep it in check. Philip is Head of the School of Human Development and Health in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southampton.
