Abstract
Inflammation is a prevalent issue among athletes, especially those engaged in high-intensity sports, and can reduce the athlete's long-term potential. Over time, chronic inflammation impedes recovery, performance, and ultimately competitiveness, which is evident among some athletes over others. This article explores more novel concepts contributing to inflammation such as the microbiome and genetic predispositions, which are often overlooked in mainstream management, thereby allowing for more personalized therapies for athletes. Additionally, it introduces ways to address inflammation early to help prolong performance longevity and reduce the risk of serious injury holistically for the overall well-being of professional athletes.
