Food & Nutrition: 'Healthful Resolutions: Adopting the Anti-Inflammatory Diet'
Dr. Weil's Weekend Tip, January 30, 2011
Chronic inflammation has been identified as factor in the development of fatal degenerative diseases and Alzheimer's. Because diet is a major contributor to chronic inflammation, adopting a healthful diet can help prevent and counteract the risks associated with inflammation. For more, read below.
The anti-inflammatory diet isn't a weight-loss program (although you can lose weight on it) or a temporary eating plan. It is intended to counteract chronic inflammation, now known to play a central role in the development of heart disease, many cancers and Alzheimer's disease. Poor diet is perhaps the main contributor to chronic inflammation. The anti-inflammatory diet can help you correct
that: it points the way to food choices that can help you remain optimally healthy. Use my Anti- Inflammatory Food Pyramid - print it out and post it on the fridge. Along with influencing inflammation, the diet will give you steady energy and provide all the vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and dietary fiber you need.
