Using illustrations, flowcharts, acronyms, and detailed-yet-simplifying explanations, Dr Vasquez makes the learning process easier than ever for clinicians to grasp important concepts in integrative care and functional medicine and then to translate the basic science research, molecular biology, and clinical data into treatment plans that can be explained and used in the real world of clinical practice with patients. The associated video tutorials and recorded live conference presentations further help students and clinicians get it via Dr Vasquez's effective teaching style which embraces complexity while always emphasizing clinical applicability and psychosocial context. The Inflammation Mastery & Functional Inflammology series of books and videos translates important concepts and nutritional/biomedical science into easy and practical clinical applications for the prevention and treatment of disorders of sustained inflammation, which Dr Vasquez describes as patterns of metabolic disturbance and inflammatory dysfunction existing in three sequential and overlapping categories: 1) metabolic inflammation, 2) allergic inflammation, and 3) autoimmune inflammation.
