Plants have long been genetically modified through crossbreeding and other basic agricultural techniques to make crops more resilient, nutritious, and profitable. In recent decades, however, advances in genetic engineering―including the ability to blend genetic material from animals with that of plants―have allowed farmers to grow crops that resist insect pests, weeds, viruses, and drought; provide increased iron or beta carotene; deliver vaccines and antibodies; reduce common allergens and pollutants; and augment marketable qualities such as delayed ripening. The complicated scientific, environmental, legal, cultural, and ethical issues surrounding these crops are being hotly debated all over the world. In Seeds for the Future, an internationally respected molecular geneticist and food researcher, Jennifer A. Thomson, describes how these crops are developed, distributed, and regulated.

It is only recently that it has been recognized that inflammation is a key cause, trigger and/or aggravating factor of many ailments and diseases, including hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Inflammation is how your body responds to something painful, irritating or, even potentially, harmful. Having abnormal levels of inflammation in your body can put you at an increased risk for developing heart disease, cancer, and other life-threatening conditions. More importantly for you, having an elevated inflammation level in your body is what is causing your HS to flare up, and is the reason why it is not healing. The key to permanently getting rid of HS, and having the healthiest body possible, is to maintain an anti-inflammatory state within your body, i.e. the molecules that prevent inflammation are kept higher than those causing inflammation. Once an anti-inflammatory state is achieved, you will rapidly notice your HS healing up, your skin looking better than ever before, and your energy levels will quickly increase. Throughout this book you will learn the benefits behind consuming an anti-inflammatory diet, not only to cure your HS but to achieve the best health state possible. You will begin to understand the factors which make up an anti-inflammatory diet and how these factors can affect the level of inflammation in a person's body. Finally you will find 150 recipes to help get you started in four main categories, including: Breakfast Recipes Lunch Recipes Dinner Recipes Snack Recipes The ultimate goal of this cookbook is to help open the door to an anti-inflammatory diet lifestyle. It is for you to finally cure your HS, but also for all individuals, so that they may find optimum health and well-being. You do not need to have problems with inflammation to participate in this diet nor does this diet need to be recommended by a doctor (although, it is always a good idea to consult with your physician before beginning any new diet regimen). There are no special packaged foods, bars, or drinks, no gimmicks. All that is required of you is that you stick mostly to the foods on the approved list and, as much as possible, steer clear of the high-risk foods. That's it - that's all there really is to it. The anti-inflammatory diet is one that can easily be adjusted around you and/or your family's busy schedule. With the anti-inflammatory diet, you can enjoy how great you feel and feel good enjoying life!
