In this episode of Nutrition Science Bites I discuss nutrition and chronic pain with Dr Katherine Brain, an Accredited Practising Dietitian and lecturer at the University of Newcastle. Dr Brian's PhD research examined the intricate relationship between nutrition and chronic pain. We discuss how dietary patterns influence pain management and vice versa, and the importance of consuming foods rich in antioxidant nutrients, plus practical tips for incorporating a variety of colorful vegetables and fruit into your meals. Dr Brain shares insights from her research and clinical practice, offering actionable advice for those living with chronic pain. Tune in to learn how small, sustainable changes in dietary patterns can lead to meaningful improvements in quality of life.
