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 […]
