Maintaining Immunological Tolerance Towards Self-Tissue in Acute/Intense Scenarios Presented by: Samuel F. Yanuck, D.C., FACFN, FIAMA+ Wednesday, June 20, 2018 Immune tolerance is of critical importance to all tissue in the body, especially, joint, gut and thyroid health. As a clinician, your ability to maintain immunological tolerance towards self-tissue in acute/intensive scenarios is at the […]
Community and Connections: The Importance of Interpersonal Relationships in Achieving Optimal Health Presented by: Mark Hyman, M.D. Monday, June 4, 2018 Health and healing happen best in a community, where there is mutual support and reinforcement of health-promoting behaviors. Strong social connections thereby predict better outcomes in common conditions requiring behavioral and lifestyle modifications, such […]
Weight Management in Menopause: Two Experts Weigh in on a Master Metabolic Hormone Presented by: Caroline Cederquist, M.D., and Felice Gersh, M.D.+ Tuesday, May 22, 2018 Weight management is a common concern for both men and women approaching midlife. In women of this age, weight gain is often accompanied by menopause, which can present additional […]
Crucial Strategies for Balancing the Immune Response: Understanding and Modulating T Cell Polarization Presented by: Samuel F. Yanuck, D.C., FACFN, FIAMA+ Wednesday, May 9, 2018 T cells are a critical component of the adaptive immune system. By producing cytokines and influencing immunological processes, different T cell subtypes (e.g., Th1, Th2, Th17, Treg and others) help […]
Elevate Your Practice: How to Develop a Clinical Model to Improve Patient Outcomes, Professional Satisfaction and Income Presented by: Daniel Kalish, D.C.+ Wednesday, April 25, 2018 In this webinar, renowned speaker, clinician and founder of the Kalish Institute, Daniel Kalish D.C. will describe the keys to a successful functional medicine practice. The importance of effective […]
Silent SNPs: When Genetic Test Information Matters, and When It Doesn’t Presented by: Kelly Heim, Ph.D., and Nathan Morris, M.D.+ Thursday, April 19, 2018 Knowing a patient’s genetic makeup can reduce trial and error, and improve the precision of nutritional protocols. However, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) often interact with environmental factors that either magnify or […]
Stress, Microbiota and Immune Balance: How to Navigate the Underlying Immunology on an Individualized Basis‡ Presented by: Samuel F. Yanuck, DC, FACFN, FIAMA+ Thursday, April 12, 2018 Through the expression of different cytokines and cell types, the immune system forms crucial (and often bidirectional) relationships with various systems in the body. In this webinar, immunology […]
Pure Encapsulations® Presents Practical Immunology for Non-Immunologists: A Functional Medicine Roadmap for Your Most Complex Patients with Samuel F. Yanuck, DC, FACFN, FIAMA+ A balanced immune system is necessary to maintain healthy connective tissue and mucosal barriers. In this webinar, learn how to address the immunological underpinnings of a variety of common and complex cases. […]
Friendly Fire: A Functional Medicine Approach to Taming the Immune Response Presented by: Samuel F. Yanuck, DC, FACFN, FIAMA+ Tuesday, February 20, 2018 Immune balance is, in part, defined by the successful differentiation of foreign particles from self-tissue. Environmental and lifestyle factors along with internal immunological tendencies direct this balance. In this webinar, Dr. Samuel […]
