Lakeland Community College in Kirtland, Ohio, is facing critical financial and operational challenges, as revealed by a state audit. The college, overstaffed and saddled with debt from underused facilities, has seen a steep decline in enrollment from 9,400 students in 2012 to about 5,000 in 2022. The audit calls for urgent reforms in staffing, program offerings, and facility management to prevent the institution from falling into fiscal watch.

🌿 Unlock the Anti-Inflammatory Powers of Rosemary in Your Kitchen

Inflammation is a bodily response that can be either acute or chronic. Acute inflammation typically resolves quickly, while chronic inflammation is persistent and can lead to significant health issues, including diabetes, heart disease, and even mental health disorders. Research indicates that chronic inflammation may contribute to nearly half of all deaths globally.

Amber Pankonin, a registered dietitian and certified executive chef, emphasizes the role of genetics and diet in managing inflammation. Studies suggest that certain nutrients, like heart-healthy oils and antioxidants, can mitigate inflammation. Conversely, chronic inflammation is associated with several severe diseases such as cancer and obesity.

Interestingly, managing inflammation might not require expensive interventions. Common kitchen staples like rosemary, which costs around $2 to $3, could be incredibly beneficial. Rosemary, scientifically known as Rosmarinus officinalis L., is celebrated for its anti-inflammatory properties and is recommended by dietitians. It contains polyphenols that reduce inflammation by suppressing cytokines, which are pivotal in the body’s inflammatory response. Rosemary is also rich in antioxidants that combat oxidative stress and improve cellular health.

Further studies highlight rosemary's potential in treating nervous system disorders and other conditions due to its compounds like rosmarinic acid and carnosic acid, which have shown anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Although more human clinical trials are needed, existing animal studies are promising.

Recent research has also explored rosemary’s potential in cancer prevention, where rosmarinic acid has shown to reduce chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and tumor growth. However, most of this research is still in the preliminary stages and conducted on animals.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognizes rosemary as safe for consumption. However, healthcare professionals should always be consulted before starting new supplements or significantly altering your diet.

Rosemary can be easily incorporated into a healthy diet. Using a 3:1 ratio of fresh to dried rosemary if fresh is unavailable. Rosemary enhances the flavor of oils, marinades, and roasted vegetables, making it a versatile and beneficial herb in culinary practices.
