While diet has long been recognized as having potential to alleviate symptoms of inflammatory diseases including arthritis, lupus and fibromyalgia, research indicates that specific foods offer particular benefits in preventing or mitigating specific symptoms. Bioactive Food as Dietary Interventions for Arthritis and Inflammatory Diseases is the only available resource focused on exploring the latest advances in bioactive food research written for the scientist or professional audience.

Audience
Nutritionists, dieticians, and biomedical researchers who study the effects of bioactive foods on arthritis and other inflammatory diseases; food scientists targeting health-related product development.
