January 2024 free CE speakers
Panelists for Clinical Approaches to Immune-Centered Illness
This dynamic panel begins with Mary Bove outlining the evolution of the understanding of the immune system in the last 3-4 decades. She describes current tools for evaluating the relationship between the gut/microbiome and the immune system and the importance of establishing a connection with the patient. Kitchen recipes for immune tonics close this segment.

Next, Katie Stage covers autoimmune conditions in an informational PowerPoint which covers patient assessment, useful labs and an outline of treatment approaches. These include decreasing triggers, improving vitality, decreasing inflammation, facilitating a healthy microbiome and decreasing toxic medication effects.

Finally, Chanchal Cabrera outlines the layers of the immune system and useful botanicals at each stage of mobilization. This begins with barrier immunity, which provides an instant response to an assault. The innate immune system then comes into play with a non-specific response involving the mobilization of white blood cells. And finally, a specific adaptive response addresses the particular pathogen. A lively Q&A session follows. (Catalog Number 20ME31)
