I don't understand what it means either. But one thing I've picked up is that inflammation isn't all bad - in fact some of it is necessary, particularly for growth. Obviously, as you get older growth becomes less necessary, and cancers very much like to grow too ... so there is a trade off going on and the balance shifts so that inflammation is less desirable as we age. A couple of good inflammation for growth examples: Wound healing has an inflammatory phase.
