Course Description


Instructor: Catharine Clark

When is inflammation (your immune response) too much of a good thing? Answer: When it becomes overzealous, pathophysiological. Are genes more important than Diet? Answer: No. Foods eaten can ultimately turn genes on and off. Interested in reducing pain and inflammation; cancer cell proliferation; symptoms of autoimmune disorders?

This fun, hands-on 11-week program may be right for you! Participants will be accountable and must be willing to spend 5 minutes on homework each day throughout this ourse. Participants in previous OLLI Programs reduced an inflammatory biomarker by 33%.

In this interactive Program we will:
- Attack the root cause of many chronic inflammatory conditions (Alzheimer’s, arthritis, atherosclerosis, chronic pain, - Crohn’s, diabetes, depression, etc).
- Measure our changed status as we make explicit, straightforward changes in the foods we eat, buy, and order in - restaurants.
- Learn the history, science, and healthcare costs of foods that increase or decrease inflammation.
- Use online tools to help guide our dietary choices and changes.
We will learn how to:
- Order in restaurants
- Decipher “Nutrition Facts�
- Repair recipes (if you cook)

Prior to enrolling, interested individuals will complete an online 6-question questionnaire (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRxmYwgnP8YWFoBjcyDDPTW3HVHnzOmudGuB-apN1tQ8dCfQ/viewform). Instructor will call all interested individuals to share more about the 11-week dietary PROGRAM and to answer questions. Each week participants will receive supplies, be given homework assignments (to be completed each day), and turn in completed assignments.
