Dr. Barry Sears is considered the founder of anti-inflammatory nutrition based on his ground-breaking research on the dietary manipulation of the hormones that control the initiation and resolution of inflammation. Dr. Sears’ early research had little to do with nutrition. He was the founder of one of the first biotechnology companies in Massachusetts in the 1970s, specializing in developing intravenous lipid-based cancer drug delivery systems. His patents issued in the early 1980s for inventing unique lipids (i.e., PEG-linked phospholipids) led to the first nanotechnology cancer drug that is still used today. The same lipids are used today in various mRNA vaccines for treating Covid-19. His research direction began to change in 1982 when the Nobel Prize in Medicine was awarded for understanding the role of dietary fats in the production of inflammatory hormones known as eicosanoids. He reasoned that he could use his knowledge of lipids to reduce the levels of these inflammatory hormones associated with a significant number of chronic diseases ranging from heart disease and diabetes to auto-immune and neurological conditions. If so, it might change the course of medicine. His initial human studies were conducted with elite athletes since they live in a world of constant inflammation due to the intensity of their training. Many of these early studies were undertaken with the Stanford University swimming teams. The result was that the Stanford swimmers he worked with won seven Gold medals in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Not bad for one country, but remarkable for one university.
