Popis: BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility (ability to recruit participants and develop the 12-month intervention), acceptability (retention of participants in the intervention), and impact on systemic inflammation and Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII(®)) scores over a 12-month DII-based intervention. METHODS: Adults were recruited to participate in a self-selection trial (intervention: n=61, in-person classes; control: n=34, newsletters). Classes included participatory cooking and dietary recommendations focused on consuming a plant-based diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods (spices, vegetables, etc.). Changes in markers of inflammation, lipids, and DII were analyzed using general linear models with repeated measurements. RESULTS: At 3 months, intervention participants had significantly lower DII scores (−2.66±2.44) compared to controls (−0.38±2.56) (p
