With the levels of non-obese diabetics on the rise, cholesterol being the number one prescribed medication in the country and still heart disease continues to go up and now blood clots and myocarditis cases randomly appearing (for some reason…), the purpose of this seminar is to present new information in looking at metabolic syndromes from a causation standpoint beyond those cases that always fit in the box that we knew. We can continue to say that metabolic syndrome is completely dietary, and the data will keep telling us that we are wrong. It is up to us on whether we choose to evolve for our patients and offer them something more.
With the rate of neurological disorders skyrocketing, it is becoming painfully clear that our brains are not lasting us as long as we need them too. This will no longer be a disease of the elderly if things keep going in this direction. Research in Quantum Biology and Chronobiology have made headway into giving us a deeper understanding of the stressors that today’s brain based patients experience and technology has opened the door for us to be able to target areas and improve function far beyond what we were ever able to do in the past with functional medicine procedures.
What used to be a rare condition that was hard to identify has now become one of the most common reasons that people search out functional medicine doctors. Unfortunately patients with biotoxic illness need to be cared for very specifically, and in a very specific order of operations. They have specific hormone and inflammation cascades that operate outside of the traditional ‘kill infections and support nutrition” model. If you can support these pathways, you will see a level of healing in these patients that they are constantly asking for, but rarely attain. Genetics or not.
The first seminar I even went to in functional medicine they told me that autoimmune disease could not be made to go away, we could just manage. All the other seminars I went to told me the same thing. Got me asking the question, “are we looking at this the wrong way?” Interestingly, the research that already exists (and keeps growing) say emphatically yes, we are looking at it wrong. What happens when you flip the current model of Infection/toxicity/nutritional deficiency as cause of autoimmune upside and start dealing with what the real causes are? Well then these conditions start going away at a very predictable rate. In this seminar we go over the real causation of autoimmune disease, how to find that cause, and tactics on how to make 80% of them go away- meaning no more antibodies. Its possible, but we have the change the model we use that tells us it isn’t able to be done.
