Ameliorating Low-Grade Inflammation through Nutrition Interventions and Exercises

Dear Colleagues,

It is widely acknowledged that chronic low-grade inflammation is a central driver in the development of many non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs), such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. The prevalence of these diseases has been steadily increasing over recent decades, highlighting the urgent need for effective preventive and treatment strategies. Consequently, exploring measures that can effectively counteract chronic low-grade inflammation is essential for developing targeted interventions to combat NCDs.

Healthy lifestyle habits, particularly proper nutrition and regular physical activity, have been shown to play a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. There is growing evidence to suggest that dietary modifications and targeted exercise interventions can have a beneficial impact on reducing chronic low-grade inflammation.

The goal of this Special Issue is to provide an updated overview and new insights into the role of nutrition, physical activity, and exercise in preventing and treating chronic low-grade inflammation. We invite researchers to submit original research and review papers that investigate the effects of diet, nutritional supplements, physical activity, or specific exercise programs on chronic low-grade inflammation in different cohorts. Through this Special Issue, we aim to present novel discoveries in the field and foster discussions on innovative approaches for ameliorating low-grade inflammation and associated disorders through nutrition and exercise.
