Aug 5 Tues 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Anti-Inflammatory Foods: How Diet Can Reduce Chronic Inflammation. Chronic inflammation has emerged as a silent epidemic affecting millions of Americans. It is an underlying factor linked to conditions ranging from heart disease and diabetes to arthritis and autoimmune disorders. Unlike acute inflammation, which is the body's natural healing response to injury or infection, chronic inflammation persists over time and can gradually damage healthy tissues and organs. This persistent inflammatory state is often fueled by poor dietary choices, stress, lack of sleep, and environmental toxins, creating a cycle that compromises immune function and accelerates aging. Join this informative session to learn more about healthy and natural ways to reduce inflammation through dietary choices. To register, email info@professionalcarematch.com or call us at (833) PCMATCH / (833) 726-2824.
