Sažetak
Diet is a main modifiable determinant involved in the development of obesity-related visceral adipose tissue low-grade chronic inflammation (LGCI). Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory properties of majority of whole foods and dietary constituents have been determined and presented as dietary inflammatory index (DII). The DII is a scoring algorithm based on extensive review of literature linking 45 food parameters with six biomarkers of inflammation. Overall DII score can take on values ranging from 7.98 (maximal pro-inflammatory dietary pattern) to -8.87 (maximal anti-inflammatory dietary pattern). Integrative anti-inflammatory approach to nutrition seems to be the milestone for tackling overweight/obesity, LGCI, and inflammation-related chronic diseases.
