Listen now
Description
Chronic smouldering inflammation is no fun to live with. Some common signs include weight gain/ stubborn weight loss, fatigue, joint pain, digestive problems, skin issues, unexplained mood changes, and autoimmune disorders. Host Amelia Phillips and Professor Philip Hansbro discuss the mechanisms behind inflammation, what causes it, which foods cause it (findings about gluten, dairy and alcohol may surprise you!) and most importantly evidence based approaches to reducing our inflammation levels and restoring healthy gut microbiome.  About the guest: Philip Hansbro is one of the world’s leading inflammation researchers, he is the Director of the Centenary UTS Centre for Inflammation, Australia’s first research organisation dedicated exclusively to studying the mechanisms underlying inflammation.  Professor Hansbro and his team have more than 25 years’ experience exploring how the immune system, and in particular inflammation, contributes to the progression of diseases such as chronic respiratory diseases.
