Our Scientific Director and Principal Investigator, Dr. Chris D’Adamo, just published an important paper in Nutrients about the negative health effects of excessive linoleic acid found in industrially processed seed oils such as soybean, canola, sunflower and safflower oil.
Here is Dr. D’Adamo’s paper, hot off the presses: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/15/14/3129
An epidemiologist and Director of Research for the Center of Integrative Medicine at the University of Maryland Medical School, Dr. D’Adamo has published over 70 papers with many of them focused on nutrition.
Besides nutrition, he has published on many of the factors that contribute to total load, such as environmental toxicants. Here is a recent paper he published on the association between environmental toxicants and autoimmunity https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/13/5/e071514.
This paper, published in collaboration with Dr. Joe Pizzorno, one of Documenting Hope’s Medical and Scientific Advisors, was the top most-read paper in BMJ in the month of May.
These papers add to the growing body of evidence that a wide variety of “modern living” factors are stressors to our health. At Documenting Hope, we know it is the total load of stressors from living in the modern world that makes our children develop chronic health and developmental issues. We are grateful to have Dr. Chris D’Adamo leading the charge on the Documenting Hope Research Studies to gather the evidence necessary to protect our children.
In the last year, Dr. D’Adamo has published a number of other papers on important “total load” factors. We’ve included a selection of those publications below.
Congratulations, Dr. D’Adamo!
