Building Immune Resilience

Presented by: Vanessa Hitch

Tuesday, 16th April @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

Building and maintaining robust immunity for short and long term resilience involves supporting the immune system at a cellular level, the tissue level and systems level. However, the immune system is regularly compromised by internal and environmental stressors.

Each year acute respiratory infections account for over six million GP visits. And with the looming consequences of antibiotic overuse, health professionals are looking to find a better way.

In this informative and solution orientated webinar we will cover:

  • How to formulate a successful prescription for both chronic and acute cases of immune dysfunction
  • Identifying critical factors needed for immune competence
  • Protection and defence strategies against seasonal immune challenges, which work rapidly to reduce symptoms and build effective resilience.

Inflammation Resolution: A New Paradigm to Treat Inflammation

Presented by: Dr Seilheimer

Tuesday, 7th May @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

It is widely accepted that the first immune system response to injury or infection is inflammation. However, when the inflammatory response is inappropriate, ineffective or excessive it can contribute to the development of a range of acute and chronic disease conditions. There are well known signs of acute inflammation and a standard view on how to treat it. In this webinar, we will examine a new paradigm on treating inflammation and take a detailed look at the biological factors involved in the process.

This innovative and interesting webinar will discuss:

  • Examining the paradigm shift in treatment of acute inflammation changing the perception of a passive process
  • The basic biology of inflammation and its resolution
  • What immunoresolvins are and how they work on acute inflammatory responses
  • How to measure inflammation resolution and the latest research surrounding this topic

New research reveals mode of action of immune stimulating BRsM

Presented by: Dr Danennmaier and Paul Kern

Tuesday, 11th June @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

In 2018, a preclinical study revealed the effects of a multicomponent, multitarget preparation in the treatment of mild respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Join this webinar to enhance your understanding of the bioregulatory medicine mode of action and learn how you can apply it effectively in clinical practice.

This presentation will highlight how bioregulatory medicines can:

  • Support the innate immune response
  • Exert an immunomodulatory function during RSV infection
  • Stimulate macrophage phagocytosis and reduce the release of inflammatory cytokines
  • Be easily incorporated into your treatment protocols

Advanced Immune Modulation – Clinically Trialled Natural Immunotherapy Substance

Presented by: Paul Kern

Tuesday, 16th July @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

The immune system is the gate keeper for maintaining safety in the body, but it often needs support to combat the challenges of the 21st century. Recent research has uncovered natural compounds that improve immune intelligence and performance, reduce fatigue and enhance wellbeing. They are called biological response modifiers (BRMs).

In this fascinating research-based webinar you will learn about one of these highly effective BRMs and discover:

  • How to improve immune intelligence using an innovative medicinal food containing beta-glucans
  • Why preserving the molecular structure during extraction is critical for improving beta glucan bioactivity
  • The importance of immune modulation for chronic skin conditions.

Development of beneficial intestinal bacteria of infants born via caesarean section

Presented by: Dr Flavia Indrio

Tuesday, 13th August @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

Colonisation at birth has a determining factor on the appropriate development of immune and metabolic functions in newborns, with impacts on their health in infancy and later in life. Many factors affect the development of the microbiota, including the type of delivery. The key message in this seminar is understanding the importance of preventing or treating dysbiosis in newborns to give them the best start in life and limit disease and poor health.

In this webinar you will:
• Discover the origins and phases of microbiota colonisation in infants pre- and post-pregnancy.
• Learn how epigenetic factors shape an infant’s microbiota.
• Understand the effects of the vaginal vs caesarian deliveries on microbiota and immune development, and how that can impact infant health.
• Discover the latest research and strategies, including probiotic use, in restoring gut health in children after a C-section.

New research on the benefits of a BRsM approach to treating stress and sleeplessness.

Presented by: Dr Myron Schultz

Tuesday, 10th Septemeber @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

In modern life, chronic stress becomes a main culprit of many mental and somatic disorders and most people are impacted by stress on a daily basis. Stress may disturb sleep and conversely disturbed sleep may contribute to stress.

This webinar will review latest research on:

  • How a BioRegulatory Medicine has shown to be effective in the treatment of stress and stress-related complaints such as sleeplessness.
  • How a BioRegulatory Medicine may assist in managing stress by regulating the stress and anxiety network in the brain.

Supercharge your stress support

Presented by: Vanessa Hitch

Tuesday, 15th October @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

Life just seems to be busier as each year passes, and even the ‘sense of busy-ness’ creates more stress and even greater demand on critical nutrients.
Whether it’s financial pressures, work deadlines, late nights, a big life-change or even just a hectic social calendar, higher levels of stress are now an inevitable part of life. Unfortunately, this demanding lifestyle reduces our resilience to stress and increases the allostatic burden. Allostasis describes the total internal and external physiological wear-and-tear (or burden) on our body and nervous system.

Relevant for every single client, this insightful webinar will discuss:

  • How to quickly identify key signs and symptoms of adrenal dysfunction in your clinic
  • Highly effective strategies using natural medicines and ongoing stress management techniques to quickly restore your patient’s vitality and nervous system resilience
  • How to effectively prescribe activated B vitamins and evidenced-based herbal medicines in combination for super-charged stress support.

pH balance in children

Presented by: Michelle Lopez

Tuesday, 12th November @ 7.00pm

(Local Adelaide Time)

Every cell, tissue and organ rely on the correct pH balance to maintain homeostasis; however, one organ shoulders the greatest burden when it comes to excreting excess acids – the kidneys.
It is now becoming clear that pH management is not only important for adults, but research shows children are susceptible to even the slightest shifts in acid-load with potentially harmful impact on their kidneys and other vital metabolic processes.

In this must-see webinar you will learn:

  • Why global dietary patterns are creating acidity issues for children
  • How to identify at risk children
  • The clinical consequences of acid-base imbalance and impact of a high dietary renal acid load on children
  • Practical solutions to correct the imbalance by means of easy dietary interventions in the child population.
