Food and Inflammation: Diet's Impact on Health | Episode29
Manage episode 476430167 series 3652230
In this episode of The Health Pulse Podcast, we explore the powerful connection between diet and inflammation—and how everyday food choices can either fuel or fight the silent driver behind many chronic diseases.
Learn how the Western diet, packed with sugar, refined carbs, and processed foods, triggers chronic low-grade inflammation, contributing to conditions like heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's, and cancer. We also discuss how anti-inflammatory eating patterns—like the Mediterranean diet—support healing through nutrients like omega-3s, antioxidants, and gut-friendly foods.
You’ll discover:
- Which blood markers (like hsCRP and ferritin) can reveal hidden inflammation
- Signs that your body may be reacting to certain foods
- Simple, effective strategies to reduce inflammation through diet
🎧 Tune in to learn how small dietary changes can lead to major health improvements—and how to uncover your personal inflammatory triggers.
