Chronic inflammation damages tissues and drives major diseases by triggering an overactive immune response.

Aging is often thought of as an inevitable process, but much of what we associate with aging—fatigue, joint pain, cognitive decline, hormone imbalance—is driven by one underlying factor: chronic inflammation. This low-grade, persistent inflammation is often referred to as “inflammaging,” and it plays a central role in nearly every chronic condition. At Inner Balance Functional Medicine, we help patients across Colorado and California.
