The common denominator of four major chronic health conditions – heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and cancer – is inflammation. It is estimated that junk food makes up an average of one third of the American diet, and the country is experiencing an epidemic of type 2 diabetes. This course is an overview of the effect food has on the body’s inflammatory response and discusses the nutritional components that decrease pain and inflammation in the body. This course discusses the macronutrients, micronutrients, nutritional supplements, and elimination diets that may be used in the treatment of painful and inflammatory conditions.
