Why This Supports Inflammation & Longevity

Chicken provides lean protein, supporting muscle mass — crucial for metabolic health and longevity.

Saffron contains crocin and safranal, compounds shown to reduce inflammatory markers and oxidative stress.

Aubergine provides nasunin, an anthocyanin with membrane-protective antioxidant properties.

Yoghurt offers probiotics that modulate the gut–immune interface and may reduce systemic inflammatory load.

Mint provides rosmarinic acid, which has anti-inflammatory effects.

This dish supports metabolic resilience, antioxidant defence and gut-mediated immune regulation.
