New Frontiers: Nutrition and Chronic Pain (NUTRITION 2025 On Demand Collection)

This course is included in the NUTRITION 2025 On Demand Collection.

Chronic pain affects more Americans than heart disease, diabetes and cancer combined, though little attention is paid by the scientific community. Recently, there is evidence that diet quality may play a role in the development and potential treatment of chronic pain conditions. This session will address basic science, clinical, and epidemiological works, including current interventions, surrounding nutrition and chronic pain. These works will include proposed mechanisms that nutrients may influence to impact pain outcomes. 

Originally presented at NUTRITION 2025, ASN's flagship meeting which was held May 31 to June 3 in Orlando, FL.
