A delightful chat with Dr. Elizabeth Yarnell about her mission and methods to improve lives simply by changing the way we think about food and anti-inflammatory diets. As a board-certified naturopath and designer of customized anti-inflammatory diets, Dr. Yarnell runs a nationwide food therapy clinic to help people discover the specific foods that not only taste good but make them feel good, too.

A 1999 diagnosis of multiple sclerosis forced Dr. Yarnell to re-think everything she thought she knew about health and inspired the now-patented invention of a quick and easy method for cooking whole foods that she introduced in her 2009 best-selling cookbook: "Glorious One-Pot Meals: A Revolutionary New Quick and Healthy Approach to Dutch Oven Cooking."

In 2011, she launched the “Fight MS with Food” project to investigate the connection between diet and autoimmune symptoms. In this episode Dr. Yarnell shares some of what she discovered, for example:
Causes of inflammation and how to minimize itWhat are food sensitivities and how you can become allergic to foodThe gold-standard test for finding food allergies The connection between diet and autoimmune symptomsOther things that can cause inflammation besides foodWhat is ‘Dutch Oven Cooking, plus so much more….
