Presentation and discussion on systemic inflammation and our diet

Digestion converts food into biologically active compounds that act at a molecular level within cells and influence the balance of microorganisms in our gut. That is, what we eat has the ability to affect cellular processes that expose us to greater or lesser amounts of inflammation. As inflammation is implicated in the root cause of a myriad of diseases, understanding how our dietary choices can reduce systemic inflammation and promote gut health is important.
