Unless you have a food allergy, a food won't create inflammation. However, some foods can be nominally pro-inflammatory, in that they increase the reactivity of the body overall and can enhance the inflammatory process when started by something else. These foods include saturated fats and simple processed sugars.

In contrast, other foods tend to "dampen" the inflammatory response. These foods include fish (omega-3 oils) and fiber.

Are there certain foods that could increase inflammation in the body?

Sugar (process) is by far the worst cause of inflammation! Dairy products with growth hormons in them. Eat fruits, vegetables and fish(salmon is the best to eat). I don't know if these foods increase all types of inflammation in the body. If a person has Gout, which is a form of arthritis, certain foods increase the amount of uric acid that the body produces. This causes extreme pain from the inflammation. The foods that cause this are foods with nitrites such as lunch meats. Other foods are mushrooms and asparagus. It is known that processed foods with additives and preservatives can cause severe allergic reactions in some people. I would not be a bit surprised if these types of foods can increase inflammation in certain people. I would suggest cutting all processed foods out of your diet and see if it helps.

How do you reduce saturated fat in your diet?

Generally, there's no need to restrict saturated fat. The rationale for saturated fat restriction is based on the idea that high cholesterol causes clogged arteries. Actually, inflammation is the problem. Here's what a heart surgeon says."Cholesterol does not cause heart disease-inflammation in the arteries does. What is inflammation and where is it coming from? The answer to that question is both tragic and sad. The very dietary recommendations born of the cholesterol theory of no-fat and low fat foods cause inflammation. Polyunsaturated Omega-6 oils; packaged and processed foods created for shelf life and not long life; sugars and simple carbohydrates create inflammation. This is the cause of an epidemic of heart disease, obesity and other chronic illnesses." Google The cholesterol theory - a tragedy to health."
