David R. Seaman, DC, MS
 Bio:
Dr. Seaman is an associate professor at Palmer College of Chiropractic Florida, where he teaches clinical nutrition, neuroscience and complicated case presentations. While in clinical practice twenty years ago, he became aware of the developing research that linked dietary habits to the inflammatory process and noticed that appropriate dietary changes could significantly improve various musculoskeletal and visceral conditions.
Dr. Seaman’s nutrition project for his masters degree focused on nutritional methods for pain control and he has followed the scientific literature related to nutrition and inflammation in the ensuing years. This has led to the publication of a book, many articles, and book chapters devoted to the topic of nutrition for the modulation of pain and inflammation, which are used by clinicians throughout the United States. His educational efforts resulted in being awarded the 2006 Academician of the Year by the American Chiropractic Association.
Dr. Seaman is on the post-graduate faculty of several chiropractic colleges and conducts numerous post-graduate/license renewal seminars for field practitioners. As a result of his educational programs and publications, thousands of patients within and outside the United States have experienced the benefits of nutritional deflaming with diet and supplementation.
