The clocks have not gone back yet, but you already know the feeling. The evenings close in a little earlier, the first jumper comes out of storage, and the food you reach for starts to change without you deciding it consciously. What you may not know is that the harvest sitting in front of you this month is quietly one of the most anti-inflammatory seasons on the calendar. You do not need to fight the craving for something warm and orange on your plate. You need to know which version of it earns its place.

The trouble starts when it does not switch off, when low-level inflammation runs in the background for months or years and quietly strains your joints, your energy and your long-term health. Food will not switch it off on its own, but the right choices, eaten often, tip the balance in your favour. Here is where to start this autumn.
