Abstract:
Cardiovascular disease, obesity, Crone’s disease, allergies, lupus, and many more inflammatory diseases are being exposed by Dr. William Joel Meggs, professor of emergency medicine and medical toxicology at East Carolina University’s Brody School of Medicine. Meggs argues that environmental factors, diet, chemical exposure, and air pollution are just a few things that can trigger inflammation, something he wishes to examine further as the president of the newly created Environmental Health Research Foundation.
