Inflammation – PTP002 - Plant Trainers

On today’s show, we talk about how food can be a saviour in fighting inflammation. It is important to understand what inflammation is and how we can battle against it. Natural, raw or cooked, beautifully rich foods can potentially keep you from popping pills or taking prescribed medication. We give you some good tips about great foods to consume and tips in preparing meals to help reduce your inflammation. These tips and recipes will hopefully help you get on with your days pain-free and help you be able to recover faster so you can get back to your exercise.
