Anti-inflammatory agents work by modulating the body’s inflammatory response, which can be triggered by injury, infection, or chronic conditions. Many herbs with anti-inflammatory properties are rich in antioxidants, flavonoids, or other bioactive compounds. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a celebrated anti-inflammatory herb, with curcumin as its active compound, which helps reduce systemic inflammation. Ginger (Zingiber officinale) soothes inflammation in both the digestive and musculoskeletal systems. Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) is used for its gentle calming effects on irritated tissues, while willow bark (Salix spp.) targets inflammation linked to pain. These herbs provide a natural way to support the body in managing inflammation and promoting overall healing.
