Regular readers of mine may have seen me use the term “antioxidants” from time to time but do you know what they are and why they are important?

9 Key Foods that Reduce Inflammation

Inflammation. It’s not just for health headlines; It’s a fact.

Scientists are measuring levels of inflammation in our bodies and finding that it can be devastating for our health. This is especially true when it becomes chronic, but even low levels of inflammation on a chronic basis can create problems and lead to disease.

Inflammation is often thought of as the root cause of all disease. This makes sense when you consider that it has been closely linked to obesity, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, Rheumatoid arthritis, and diabetes - just to name a few.

As I’ve discussed often, inflammation is a vital part of our immune system's response to injury or infection. It’s our body's way of triggering the immune system to spring to action to repair damaged cells or tissues and defend our body against foreign invaders like viruses and bacteria.

Without inflammation, wounds may become septic and infections deadly. But if the inflammatory process continues for too long, or if inflammation occurs in places where it’s not needed, it can become a problem anywhere in our body or brain.

Luckily, a healthy diet and lifestyle can help keep inflammation under control.

Vitamin D’s Surprising Impact on Brain Health

Did you also know that vitamin D levels significantly impact brain health? Did you know that as you age your body’s ability to turn sunlight into vitamin D decreases?

Vitamin D is a critical nutrient for good health but too many people simply don't get enough of the "sunshine vitamin."

It’s not easy to get most of the year, and it’s not in too many foods. This could help explain why vitamin D deficiencies are very common. But what does vitamin D actually do? And what does a deficiency of it really mean anyway?

Keep reading to get the lowdown on this critical, all-too-often deficient vitamin. And discover three ways you can get enough of it.

Parfrites With Garlic

This healthy parfrites recipe using whole food ingredients is a great alternative to french fries and much more nutritious with the added health benefits of raw garlic. After years without fries, I started experimenting in the kitchen to find a better and healthier alternative - then parsnips came to mind.
