Chronic inflammation not only affects sports performance but also overall quality of life. Its impact on the body can lead to various diseases and accelerate the natural aging process. To support an active lifestyle, curb inflammation levels in the body. Athletes, both professional and recreational, should watch out for over-training as it can cause the body to be in an inflammatory state. This state can result in injuries to ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and joints. Long-term inflammation keeps the body in a constant state of alert, making these soft tissue and joint structures more susceptible to both acute and overuse injuries.

Here are some effects of chronic inflammation on sports and exercise performance:

• Decreased endurance
• Longer recovery time and increased soreness after strenuous activity
• Impaired muscle synthesis
• Heightened perceived exertion
• Disrupted cellular energy production

Overall, inflammation can make training and exercise feel more challenging, prolong recovery time, and reduce energy levels.
