I've heard that the goal for many football players is not long term health but to get out there and play while the opportunity is there. Reducing inflammation works so that you feel like you can go out and play again without adequate recovery. When the average football player has only a few months for a few years to make their mark, playing through injury or pain is the goal rather than the proper recovery.

Which then makes sense for them in a way, but makes treating inflammation something that maybe isn't as important for the general population (as most of us are hopefully in it for the long haul)
