10 Slimming/Anti-inflamatory Foods to Eat If You Sit All Day | TIME
Mais uma daquelas listas, algo questionáveis. De qualquer forma há estudos a indicar que estar sentado muito tempo tem efeitos inflamatórios e estes alimentos / ingredientes suprimem a inflamação (o foco não é emagrecimento como o título indicia mas supressão da inflamação):
10 Slimming Foods to Eat If You Sit All Day | TIME
Citando:
"Science backs this up: Prolonged sitting has been linked to everything from increased hunger and inflammation (which both lead to obesity and belly fat) to high blood pressure and high blood sugar. If you’ve ever heard the phrase “sitting is the new smoking,” now you know where it stems from. But the damage doesn’t stop there. In addition to these preventable diseases, spending too much time on your behind can also result in tight hip flexors, back pain, weak glutes, and rounded, sore shoulders which are all things that can decrease the effectiveness of your workout or lead to a disabling injury, says Piya Tony Vacharasanee, NASM, ACSM, of Body Space Fitness in New York City. All that from an innocent-looking swivel chair.
(...)
But tweaking your diet may also help diminish some of the health risks associated with sitting. A number of nutrients have been shown to fight inflammation by “turning off” inflammatory genes. Add these recommended foods that follow into your diet to help ease some of the damage of your 9-to-5 and you’ll be on your way to a leaner, healthier you."

O que acontece quando um mosquito nos pica
... E como evitar que os vírus se propaguem:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/itchy-mosquito-bite-inflammation-enhances-replication-viruses-1566738
Citando:
"When mosquitoes bite, they probe the skin and inject saliva, causing an inflammation and triggering an immune response. White blood cells called neutrophils and myeloid cells rush to the site of the bite, but the researchers show that instead of helping, these cells in fact get infected and inadvertently replicate the virus."
(...)
"Potential treatment
These findings suggest that anti-inflammatory drugs and creams could be an interesting therapeutic option to limit the spread of the virus. They could potentially target the inflammation before the immune cells rush to the site of the bite and become infected by the virus. This could an important step in fighting viral diseases (...)"
