Resolving Chronic Inflammation using SPMs: A Two-Phase Approach with Ashley Koff RD

Practitioners, if specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs)
aren't already on your radar, you'll be a convert by the end of
this New Frontiers episode.

In functional medicine, we excel at addressing inflammation
through nutrition and lifestyle. However, brilliant researchers
like Dr. Charles Serhan from Harvard have shown us that resolving
inflammation requires a two-phase approach. We need to shift
gears, rally the cleanup crew, start the repair process, and turn
down the volume on the immune system. This transition from
inflammation to resolution is exactly what our guest, Ashley
Koff, RD, will discuss.


We'll explore why SPMs, discovered by Dr. Serhan, are crucial for
healthy inflammation resolution and how Metagenics has developed
a product using the patented Serhan method that has numerous
clinical applications, from managing inflammation and pain to
addressing neurodegenerative conditions, autoimmunity, and even
infertility. We'll also delve into factors that influence our
ability to convert omega-3 and -6 fatty acids into these
superstar molecules, such as diet, genetics, inflammatory bias,
and poor vagal tone. This conversation is packed with clinical
pearls for your practice and personal use. Enjoy. ~DrKF
