Riassunto

One of the most powerful things we can do to tame the inflammation that aggravates our autoimmune symptoms is eat foods that work with us, not against us.

But how do we know what to eat and what to avoid? Reading through contradictions in internet articles can be so frustrating when you just want to feel better, and just want to know what foods help or hurt. I bet you've seen conflicting information like this:

• Omega 6 essential fatty acids reduce inflammation.
• Omega 6 fatty acids increase inflammation.

• The Mediterranean diet, which includes whole grains, plentiful vegetables, and beans, is the #1 best diet for reducing inflammation.
• Gluten, nightshade vegetables like bell peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, beans, and many more "healthy" foods like dairy products (all of which are included in the Mediterranean diet) will make your symptoms worse.

This handy research-based quick guide explains what food properties have the most scientific consensus and strongest evidence for reducing systemic inflammation. Here's what's in it:

• What inflammation is, and how scientists measure it.
• Which food components fight inflammation, and which make it worse.
• Explanations about all that conflicting information.
• How the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP elimination diet) comes into play.
• Where to find the inflammatory hidden sugar in your diet.
• Decision guide worksheets to help you weigh a food on the pro- or - anti - inflammatory scale.

As you become more familiar with the information in this book, it will become easier to quickly determine if a food will be a good or bad choice when you’re trying to calm your immune system.
