Inflammaging Revisited<br />
Recent findings affirm that “chronic diseases are not only the result<br />
of aging and inflammation; they also accelerate the aging process.”<br />
The Inflammaging discussion centers on cellular processes,<br />
including the function of macrophages (MACs), which are the large<br />
white blood cells produced in our bone marrow that support our<br />
immune systems. A macrophage has the ability to locate and ‘eat’<br />
particles, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Without a<br />
healthy diet MACs suffer and we develop chronic diseases.<br />
Much of chronic disease, complications of chronic disease and<br />
related costs are preventable. This class will focus on what<br />
constitutes an anti-inflammatory, optimal nutrient diet (A.I.O.N.).<br />
All other lifestyle factors matter, but diet is key to slowing<br />
inflammaging, to prevent new damage, and may decrease pain.<br />
We will also take a look at the negative impact of high-sugar foods,<br />
processed carbohydrates, and the pervasive addiction to these<br />
substances. Other topics will include red meat vs. vegan, the<br />
Keto diet and fasting.<br />
