Inflammation is a hot topic these days with good reason - just about all of us deal with an unusual amount of stressors. That’s life, right? The problem is whether they are environmental, professional, food related or otherwise, those stressors aggravate inflammatory responses that can exacerbate uncomfortable symptoms and pre-existing conditions. Things that our bodies would normally withstand are now banging down the door for your attention. That’s inflammation. The good news is that we can help manage our bodies’ responses to stress with good nutrition. We will discuss what kinds of things cause inflammation as well as how to identify signs and symptoms that you body is inflamed. Then we’ll take it one step farther to talk about strategies to use foods as first aid that can help manage and remove inflammation. This is a class for demystifying the inflammation epidemic. This will be mostly lecture with a short allergen-free food demonstration and tasting. Co-taught by Tressa Yellig and Dr. Rebecca Asmar.
