What Inflammation Is Really Doing Inside Your Body
About this episode
The episode explores the complexities of inflammation and its impact on health, featuring insights from Dr Amir Khan.
Cherry Healey and Dr Amir Khan look at one of the biggest health buzzwords of the moment... inflammation. It’s been linked to everything from arthritis and diabetes to depression, dementia and even cancer, but how worried should we actually be? Dr Amir breaks down what inflammation really is, why it isn’t always a bad thing, and what happens when your immune system gets stuck in “go mode” and doesn’t switch off. They discuss the roles of stress, poor sleep, obesity, hormones and ultra-processed foods, and explain why chronic inflammation may be affecting far more of us than we realise. Cherry also puts some of the internet’s biggest wellness claims under the microscope, from anti-inflammatory diets and turmeric shots to the idea that sugar “feeds cancer.” Plus, in this week’s Chat GP, Dr Amir shares his advice for a listener going through IVF. 💬 Got a question?
