Inflammation Nation by Floyd Chilton is a thought provoking analysis about what’s wrong with our country nutritionally. The author exposes the root cause of a host of seemingly disparate diseases such as arthritis, heart disease, obesity, eczema, lupus, Alzheimer’s: basically unbridled inflammation. The average American diet is inflaming our immune systems. He recommends that we lower our consumption of Arachidonic acid and eat foods with a low glycemic index.
In part II he provides us with an Arachidonic index that gives the inflammatory potential of commonly eaten foods. He also provides an easy to read glycemic index.
Part III includes meal plans and recipes to help you get started on the Chilton Plan to end our nation’s secret epidemic and improve your personal health.
