Immune dysfunction may be the primary driving force behind complex, chronic inflammatory diseases. The immune system is involved in defending the body against invading pathogens or disease-causing micro-organisms. Finding and removing a patient’s specific triggers is the central clinical approach in Functional Medicine. The immune system is a system, not an organ which requires nutritional sufficiency for optimal function.
In this webinar, we will explore:
- A deeper understanding of the innate and adaptive immune systems
- The relationship between the immune system and the gut microbiota
- The interferon immune system and the cytokine storm
- What it means to support the immune system?
- Decipher the value of herbal medicine, specific vitamins and minerals to support the immune system
