Study uncovers the tradeoff between fast immune defense and long-term inflammation

Some of our biggest threats can come in the tiniest forms-viruses and bacteria. Thankfully, we are born with a built-in defense system, our innate immune system that protects us in our youth but can turn against us as we age.
