Thanks for your question and for letting us post the answer online.<\/p>\n
You are right that HIV increases immune inflammation – and that this might increase the risk of some complications. Luckily, this is dramatically reduced by being on ART.<\/p>\n
However, you are also right that even on ART, inflammation remains a little higher compared to people who are HIV negative.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, using anti-inflammatory medicines haven’t shown any benefit. This means that foods or supplement will also not help – as any anti-inflammatory effect with these will be much smaller.<\/p>\n
These foods might have other benefits, and won’t do you any harm though – other than the money you spends on them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Hi, I have been on ARV and undetectable since March.<\/p>\n
I read many articles saying even undetectable amount of HIV causes chronic inflammation that might lead to many ageing diseases.<\/p>\n
\u00a0I was wondering if any of those anti-inflammation foods and supplements are proven to reduce it. I am thinking to take Omega-3 and turmeric supplements in addition to anti-inflammation diet. <\/p>\n
Thank you so much, I\u2019m looking forward to hearing from you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,26,29,53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16501","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all-topics","category-living-with-hiv-long-term","category-opportunistic-infections","category-research"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16501","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16501"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16501\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16501"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16501"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16501"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
