I'm a bit concerned that the comments here are so credulous. "Inflammation" has been part of the woo-woo arsenal of certain corners of the health and wellness community for at least a couple of decades, and which I wouldn't be surprised if it supplies a not-insignificant number of the anti-vax adherents. It's that specious.



Perhaps, but Inflammation is detected via several blood tests e.g. CRP which presumably can't be imaginary and signify some real physical processes.

That sounds like "Hitler was a vegetarian, hence vegans are Nazis" logic.


It isn't. If it were instead, "vegans talk about Hitler all the time, so..." then it would be an apt analogy.
