First things first.

As a physician my primary concerns are twofold.  They are dis-ease and premature death.

Shockingly, our industrialized health care system has been identified as our nations number one killer.  Legal drugs by themselves have been rated number three.  

Still, it is disease and discomfort which drive these people into the health care system.  And, it can be argued that the diet provided by our industrialized food supply system is a major cause of death and disease.

Excluding health care, our leading killers are reported to be heart & vascular diseases, stroke and cancer.

I believe that current research shows inflammation, our bodies primary defense mechanism, to be at the root of these killers as well being involved in a host of other less lethal health scourges including arthritis, chronic pain syndromes and neuro-degenerative conditions.    

In future posts I will outline our approach to achieving and maintaining health, vitality and longevity through diet and supplementation aimed at de-flammation.
