The connection between inflammation and weight loss
Research shows that inflammation in the body, specifically chronic systemic inflammation, can contribute to all kinds of problems including heart disease, depression, and yes -- weight. The scary part about inflammation is that it's sneaky, and you may be doing things that cause it and not even realize. Bad health habits like living a stressful life, smoking, not getting enough sleep, eating an imbalanced diet, and even obesity can all make inflammation worse.
As far as how and why inflammation makes losing weight so difficult could be any number of factors, one of which is that it's known to have a negative influence on the body's ability to respond to the hormone leptin.
