A member asked:
Is there evidence that "anti-infiammatory foods" reduce inflammation? or are these simply "healthy foods"? http://bit.ly/inflam2
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No conclusive evid: Search of both Cochrane reviews as well as PubMed failed to disclose a conclusive body of evidence regarding measured anti-inflammatory activity for any diet commonly accepted as ANTI-INFLAMMATORY. While many foods and other chemical substances have been looked at in this regard I was unable to find a specific diet that showed such measurable activity.
