How Eating An Anti-Inflammatory Diet Is Key To Regaining Your Health

How Eating An Anti-Inflammatory Diet Is Key To Regaining Your
Health | This episode is brought to you by InsideTracker
Inflammation is part of the body’s natural defense system and can
be a good thing in balance. However, when your immune system shifts
out of balance, inflammation can run rampant—causing a chronic,
smoldering fire inside your body that contributes to disease,
weight gain, and more. What we eat is one of the biggest levers we
have when it comes to driving or reducing inflammation. Industrial
food drives inflammation, oxidative stress, hormone and
neurotransmitter imbalances, overloads your detoxification system,
depletes your energy, damages your microbiome, and changes your
gene expression to turn on disease-causing genes. Real whole
nutrient and phytonutrient-rich food does the opposite. It turns
off inflammation, increases antioxidant systems, balances hormones
and brain chemistry, boosts detoxification, increases energy,
optimizes your microbiome, and turns on disease-preventing,
health-promoting genes. In this minisode, Dr. Hyman speaks with
Vani Hari and Dr. David Perlmutter about the dangers of
inflammatory foods and how to eat a diet that is anti-inflammatory.
Named as one of the “Most Influential People on the Internet” by
Time Magazine, Vani Hari is the revolutionary food activist behind
foodbabe.com, co-founder of organic food brand Truvani, New York
Times best selling author of, The Food Babe Way, and Feeding You
Lies. She has led campaigns against food giants like Kraft,
Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, Subway and General Mills that attracted
more than 500,000 signatures, and led to the removal of several
controversial ingredients used by these companies. Through
corporate activism, petitions, and social media campaigns, Vani and
her Food Babe Army have become one of the most powerful populist
forces in the health and food industries.  Her drive to change
the food system inspired the creation of her new company, Truvani,
where she produces real food without added chemicals, products
without toxins, and labels without lies. Vani has been profiled in
the New York Times and The Atlantic, and has appeared on Good
Morning America, CBS This Morning, CNN, The Dr. Oz Show, The
Doctors, and NPR.  Dr. David Perlmutter is a Board-Certified
Neurologist and four-time New York Times bestselling author. He
serves on the Board of Directors and is a Fellow of the American
College of Nutrition. He serves as a member of the Editorial Board
for the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease and has published
extensively in peer-reviewed scientific journals including Archives
of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and The Journal of Applied Nutrition.
His books have been published in 34 languages and include the #1
New York Times bestseller Grain Brain, The Surprising Truth About
Wheat, Carbs and Sugar, with over 1 million copies in print. Dr.
Perlmutter’s new book Brain Wash, co-written with his son Austin
