Inflammation: How it helps and harms the body
炎癥：如何幫助和傷害身體

Inflammation is part of your body’s healing mechanism — the reason why your knee swelled and turned red when you injured it. But this inflammatory repair process can sometimes go awry, lasting too long and harming instead of helping. When inflammation is caused by an ongoing problem, it can contribute to health problems. Over time, inflammation stemming from chronic stress, obesity, or an autoimmune disorder may potentially trigger conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, or cancer. It may also harm the brain. Researchers have found a link between higher levels of inflammation inside the brain and an elevated risk for cognitive decline and impairment. Regularly adding anti-inflammatory foods to your diet may help to switch off this process.
炎癥是身體愈合機(jī)制的一部分，也是膝蓋受傷時(shí)變紅腫的原因。但是這種炎癥修復(fù)過程有時(shí)會(huì)出錯(cuò)，持續(xù)時(shí)間過長，會(huì)造成傷害。當(dāng)炎癥是由持續(xù)的問題引起時(shí)，可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致健康問題。隨著時(shí)間的推移，慢性壓力、肥胖或自身免疫性疾病引起的炎癥可能會(huì)引發(fā)關(guān)節(jié)炎、心臟病或癌癥等疾病。炎癥也可能傷害大腦。研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，大腦內(nèi)較高水平的炎癥與認(rèn)知能力下降和損傷的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)升高之間存在聯(lián)系。定期攝入抗炎食物可能有助于阻止這一過程。

Berries and watermelon in the summer, kale and beets in the winter. The recipe for anti-inflammatory foods to enjoy can change with the seasons.
夏天的漿果和西瓜，冬天的羽衣甘藍(lán)和甜菜?？寡罪嬍晨梢噪S著季節(jié)的變化而變化。

Spring anti-inflammatory superstars
春季抗炎食物

When the spring months arrive, look for asparagus, apricots, avocados, carrots, mushrooms, and celery.
當(dāng)春天來臨時(shí)，可以吃蘆筍、杏、牛油果、胡蘿卜、蘑菇和芹菜。

Summer anti-inflammatory superstars
夏季抗炎食物

Summer is prime time for many types of produce, and you’ll have lots of choices. Berries are a great anti-inflammatory option. Try different varieties of blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries. Also reach for cherries, eggplant, zucchini, watermelon, green beans, honeydew melon, okra, peaches, and plums.
夏天是多種農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的黃金季節(jié)，你的選擇很豐富。漿果是優(yōu)質(zhì)抗炎食物。可以選擇不同種類的藍(lán)莓、黑莓和草莓。還可以吃櫻桃、茄子、西葫蘆、西瓜、青豆、蜜瓜、秋葵、桃子和李子。

Fall anti-inflammatory superstars
秋季抗炎超級(jí)明星

Nothing says fall like a crisp, crunchy apple. But there are a host of other anti-inflammatory foods to try as well, such as cabbage, cauliflower, garlic, peas, ginger, and all types of lettuce.
提到秋天就想到嘎嘣兒脆的蘋果。但除此之外也有很多其他抗炎食品可以嘗試，比如卷心菜、花椰菜、大蒜、豌豆、生姜和各種生菜。

Winter anti-inflammatory superstars
冬季抗炎超級(jí)明星

In the cold winter months, think green. Many green leafy vegetables star during this season, including kale, collard greens, and swiss chard. Root vegetables like beets are another great and hardy winter option. Reach for sweet potatoes and turnips. Other options to try are kiwi fruit, lemons, oranges, and pineapple.
在寒冷的冬天，考慮綠色食物。許多綠葉蔬菜在這個(gè)季節(jié)都很受歡迎，包括羽衣甘藍(lán)和瑞士甜菜。甜菜等根莖類蔬菜也是不錯(cuò)且耐寒的冬季選擇。也可以吃紅薯和蕪菁。其他選擇包括獼猴桃、檸檬、橙子和菠蘿。

Whenever possible, when you choose an anti-inflammatory food try to substitute it for a less healthy option. For example, trade a muffin for a fresh-berry fruit salad, or a plate of French fries for a baked sweet potato. Making small trades in your diet can add up to big health benefits over time.
有可能的話，試著用一種抗炎食物代替不太健康的食物。例如，將一塊松餅換成一份新鮮的漿果沙拉，或者將一盤薯?xiàng)l換一份烤紅薯。在你的飲食中做一些小的改變，隨著時(shí)間的推移，會(huì)對健康非常有幫助。
