I need to ask: What is it with HN attracting the "inflammation explains everything" crowd whenever there is a discussion about medical topics? I don't understand it. Is there any hard science behind all these explanations of phenom via the inflammation pathway? Or is this just another seed oil conspiracy theory?

Why in the world did you post this in reply to my comment? Obviously you have some weird hangup, and the fact that I mentioned inflammation quite literally in passing triggered you. Yes, inflammation is a thing in the medical world. There are actual tests to measure it. Having higher levels is generally considered a negative indicator.
