Americans are overfed and undernourished. Over-processed food is a culprit, but what other factors contribute less than optimum health? What does actually happen within the body when consuming a “typical” American diet. Inflammation out of control underlies disease. Can addressing the diet in very specific ways get to the source of how dysfunction emerges and beat the challenge of chronic inflammation? Can diet and other behavioral protocols affect the way the immune system functions and regulates? How does chronic inflammation play a role?
Within normal daily-life conditions we expect resilient health and vitality. But with added stressors in the mix and sub-optimal nourishment, underlying system weaknesses will be revealed.
How can we fix it?
Today’s consumers have real concerns and are paying attention. Experts weigh in on the changing market and nutritional needs.
