Let's work towards a healthier future for all! Thanks to Maya Maroto, EdD, MPH, RD for leading this important effort. I am excited to say that the manuscript of the expert panel is now published.

The anti-inflammatory diet is a starting point that we often use. Listen in to hear about what it really is and why we use it so much. #antiinflammatory #inflammation  #drmaura #naturopath #naturopathicmedicine #naturopathy #naturopathicdoctor #guthealthisreal #microbiome #rootcausemedicine #functionalmedicine
