👉 A dietary weapon refers to specific nutrients or dietary components that can be used strategically to combat disease or improve health outcomes. These are often found in foods that have potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, or immune-boosting properties, such as omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, polyphenols in berries, or vitamin D from fortified foods. By incorporating these "weapons" into one's diet, individuals can potentially reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers, or even enhance their overall immune response.
