Got aches and pains? Some causes of pain, such as arthritis, are unavoidable but you can build a diet from foods that help calm the flame. Chronic inflammation can lead to heart disease and other serious problems. The best defense is to eat anti-inflammatory foods and cut out those that feed inflammatory responses. Luckily, the foods that protect you are also delicious! Chef Robin Asbel will show us how to cook several dishes with anti-inflammatory food. Check out dishes and ingredients to cook along with Chef Asbel!
