On one hand, it helps your body defend\u00a0itself from infection and injury.\u00a0

Tomatoes <\/strong>
Tomatoes are high in vitamin C,\u00a0potassium, and\u00a0lycopene, an antioxidant with impressive anti-inflammatory properties.\u00a0
Lycopene\u00a0may be particularly beneficial for\u00a0reducing pro-inflammatory compounds related to\u00a0several types of cancer.

Broccoli is rich in sulforaphane, an\u00a0antioxidant that fights inflammation.
Eating a lot of cruciferous vegetables is\u00a0associated with a decreased risk of heart\u00a0disease and cancer.\u00a0
This may be related to the anti-inflammatory\u00a0effects of the antioxidants they contain.
