What is Anti-Inflammatory Diet Protocol?
A structured eating approach designed to reduce chronic systemic inflammation — the underlying driver of heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, depression, and accelerated aging. Based on Dr. Andrew Weil's anti-inflammatory food pyramid and Mediterranean diet research, the protocol emphasizes omega-3 fatty acids, colorful phytonutrients, fiber, and fermented foods while eliminating refined sugars, seed oils, and ultra-processed foods.
