Health News Update: More Info on the Anti-Inflammatory Food Plan
Hello again friends:
I thought it would be helpful to focus on some information about eating to lower inflammation. As you already are aware, inflammation is the final common pathway down which all chronic illness goes…stop or slow inflammation and you stop or slow many ailments including aging. Yes, aging is a risk factor for chronic illness, so de-flammerate yourself and feel your best, look your best, and age optimally.

Bottom Line:
After seeing enough of these links, you may be moved to make some shifts in your food plan. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of papers revealing that a wholefoods, unprocessed plant-based food plan is the optimal way to go. Because of the many diet plans out there for weight loss, it may look confusing as to what to eat…however, behind the scenes there exists a strong consensus of what constitutes the healthiest food plan. This food plan goes directly against the billion-dollar food and pharmaceutical industry and is not given the credit and place in our lives that it is due.
Remember, an unprocessed, wholefood, plant-based food plan is NOT a diet…it is part of a LIFESTYLE upgrade that offers more benefits than any diet. We are in a marathon (lifestyle) and not a sprint (diet) so please choose the foods that support health and reap the rewards. Invest in yourself, and please do not give your health away to the people that sell you ultra-processed things that masquerade as food. Start slow, choose reasonable goals…get it done!
