High levels of economic inflation can harm societies and individuals in various ways. A review of 69 studies found that inflation is linked to negative health effects, such as lower life expectancy, higher mortality rates, increased suicidal behavior, and poorer mental health. Different factors like diet, substance use, stress, and violence were also affected by inflation. Certain groups, especially those with lower socioeconomic status, are at higher risk. However, there are gaps in the research, including limited geographical coverage and varying methods used. Understanding and addressing the health impacts of inflation is important in today's changing world.
