The theory that supposedly "dangerous" entities (inflammins, molecules proposed to be both dangerous in unstable quantities and innocuous in stability) in human anatomy can contribute in assisting bodily functions when balanced by opposing proteins (unalamins), rather than causing internal failure. In this theory, the inflammins are only negative to one's wellbeing when the equilibrium of said proteins in the body is disbalanced. Some instances of inflammins include prostaglandins and cytokines.
