This comprehensive volume focuses on anti-inflammatory nutraceuticals and their role in various
chronic diseases. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drugs such as steroids
non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) statins and metformin have been shown to
modulate inflammatory pathways but their long-term intake has been associated with numerous
side effects. This means that there is enormous potential for dietary agents that can modulate
inflammatory pathways in humans. Leading experts describe the latest research on the role of
anti-inflammatory nutraceuticals in preventing and treating chronic diseases.
