Not sure I'd blame the entire 'establishment'. Inflammation is a hot topic, so lots of research, and also lot's of people selling books and cures. It does seem like there is a lot of evidence that diet is the most promising 'cure' or aid. Mediterranean or full vegan and gluten free.

The problem in US, when you start talking diet then suddenly it is a political or moral statement. Suggest being vegan or gluten free and suddenly you are labeled a 'liberal fruit cake woke crazy'. Ok, go eat another steak fried in butter cream and die young.

The science on diet has been pretty clear for 50+ years, it is only 'confusing' or 'obfuscated' because of the major lobbies using Tabaco tactics.
