The Benefits of an Organic Diet on Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Children - Dr Konstantinos Makris, Cyprus University of Technology

Lifestyle factors and behavioural changes, such as diet modifications, are gaining interest as methods
to modify or even prevent the global progression of chronic diseases, such as heart conditions and
type 2 diabetes. Dr Konstantinos Makris (con-stan-teen-os Mah-kris), at the Cyprus International
Institute for Environmental and Public Health within the Cyprus University of Technology, and his
colleagues conducted a clinical trial to investigate the benefits of eating an organic diet in school
children, with findings making an important contribution to this emergent field.
