A Very Important Ted Talk on Nutrition

I prefer my own writing to reposting other people’s content, but I simply had to include this 20 minute Ted talk by a fabulous woman named Robyn O’Brien. Her talk echoes what I have been saying to my patients over the years: There’s something inflammatory going on in our U.S. food supply, and if you have COPD or Asthma, these ‘Inflammanators’ as I call them, may cost you a trip to the ER.

Besides the obvious, such as bright colors and artificial flavors, why is it that kids (and adults) today are allergic to so many foods that, as a kid, I don’t remember anyone being allergic to except maybe peanuts?

There are things in our food that Europe flat won’t allow… and it shows.
