Learn about the connection between inflammation and cellular aging with Dr. Van Dyken. She will discuss the science behind how chronic low grade inflammation results in many chronic diseases suffered by people today such as diabetes, obesity, dementia and many cancers. She will then discuss the latest scientific research exploring the connection between our dietary choices and inflammation levels in our body. Irminne Van Dyken, MD, is a general and trauma surgeon at the Queen's Medical Center in Hawaii. She thoroughly enjoys her busy practice. It is especially rewarding for her to see the positive changes in her patients as they do a 180 and completely restructure their lives around plant-based living.
In her spare time, Dr. Van Dyken loves yoga, photography, sailing, cycling and playing musical instruments including the guitar, ukulele and violin. She shares her life with her husband Russell, 14-year-old dog Chaucer and two cats. She has been vegetarian since she was 9 years old, and strictly plant-based since 2010. She has a passion for educating others and sharing the benefits of healthy plant based living. She and Russell created "Out of the Doldrums" - a YouTube Channel and online presence promoting healthy, active, plant based living (on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube).
