    <body><![CDATA[Interesting read. The author backs up a lot of his findings on personal stories, which are interesting but not that compelling. I think there is a lot of truth in what the author says about the link between inflammation and diet, but I think he takes it to an extreme in some parts. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Challem does a succinct job of outlining how the foods we eat (or rather, do not eat) can affect our body's ability to regulate inflammation.  The first chunk of the book reads like a fast-forward version of Omnivore's Dilemma, esp. the section on corn (ha ha).
