Practitioner only event | Free PANDAS and PANS are creating a paradigm shift in the mental health landscape as we begin to understand that immune activity in the body affects the brain and its function. They are neuroimmune conditions in which infectious and/or environmental triggers initiate an autoimmune response in the brain, primarily in the basal ganglia, thereby affecting a child’s behaviour. The Core 4 of a functional medicine approach to PANS/PANDAS will be discussed, including how to set the foundation of a treatment protocol for PANS/PANDAS. Learning Objectives

• To identify the most common infectious and/or environmental agents preceding the onset of PANDAS or PANS symptoms
• To gain an understanding of the mechanisms of injury to the brain from the infectious and/or environmental triggers
• How the mechanisms to injury relate to the observed symptoms and behaviour changes in a child
• To learn emerging treatments that may be used to address the causes contributing to the neuroinflammation and changes in neurochemistry, immunity, and the gut microbiome

The principles of this webinar extend to supporting children with anxiety and other conditions which cause or are caused by neural inflammation.

Cardiometabolic syndrome (CMS) is a complex interplay of metabolic dysregulation, cardiovascular disease and diabetes risk factors. It encompasses obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia, hyperuricemia, and hypertension, with obesity triggering metabolic disturbances. The global prevalence of CMS is driven by rising obesity rates and sedentary lifestyles. The metrics on the metabolic health of Australians are concerning and suggest an emerging crisis:

• 67% of Australian adults and 25% of Australian children are overweight or obese
• 1 in 4 Australians have NAFLD
• 1 in 20 Australians (or 1.3 million) Australians have type 2 diabetes
• 97,000 Australians are estimated to have bariatric surgery in 2024
• 5 million Australians take statins to manage cholesterol
• This one-day event explores the key issues and latest research on cardiometabolic disorders with a focus on evidence-based, effective dietary, nutritional and lifestyle approaches to treatment.

The information will be presented by leading clinicians and academics in this field – Dr Ross Walker, Dr Michelle Woolhouse, Dr Elizabeth Steels, Dr Brad McEwen, Dr Arun Dhir and Rebecca Edwards.

Learn how to identify and treat mycotoxin-induced illnesses with targeted protocols, understand when to pre-tox vs. detox, and discover the genetic insights that guide effective treatment. Event Details: Date: Tuesday, October 29 Time: 7:30 PM AEDT/SYDNEY Duration: 1.5 hours (+ 1.5 hours of pre-recorded training available upon registration) Platform: Live Zoom Webinar Cost: $297

Use code MOULD100 at checkout to SAVE $100

What You'll Learn:

• Identify the Risks: Understand the adverse health effects of mycotoxins, including immune deficiency, cancer, hormonal disturbances, and infertility.
• Treatment Protocols: Discover specific treatments and binders effective against different mycotoxins.
• Pre-Tox vs. Detox: Learn how to recognise when to implement a pre-tox protocol before detoxing to avoid health crises. Learn the step-by-step pre-tox process.
• Genetic Insights: Explore how genetic polymorphisms can guide treatment decisions and help optimise patient outcomes.

Mycotoxins can cause a variety of adverse health effects and pose a serious health threat to humans. The adverse effects range from immune deficiency, cancer, hormonal disturbances, mental health concerns, kidney and liver disease and infertility. Understanding the specific treatments and binders that have been shown to be effective against different mycotoxins is important for supporting patients who have been exposed to mould. However, there's a catch... If you go into treatment too fast, before the client is physically ready, you could cause a health crisis and potentially make them much sicker. Often, if a patient has long term mycotoxin exposure, they will present with bile flow issues and the inability to detox. In cases like this we utilise a specific pre-tox protocol, developed by Carolyn Ledowsky (Naturopath and PhD candidate), to help open detox pathways before starting the mould protocol. Knowing how to prepare a client's body BEFORE you start treating the mycotoxins is an essential skill that you must learn. That's what this live webinar is all about.

• Understand the signs and symptoms of when you need to pre-tox versus detox.
• Learn the different mycotoxin protocols, understand how to start and know what to do when patients react
• Identify which genetic polymorphisms to look for that might give you clues about where to start.

 

Special Bonus: Pre-Recorded Webinar Access (Available Instantly)

How much? How often? And, for how long? Through 10 transformative modules, this practice-changing program will provide you with answers to all those unanswered questions, as well as

• Uptake mechanisms and efficacy – in response to different influences from supplementation to inflammation
• Must-know aspects of micronutrient distribution – which tissues get top priority and how can different forms better fulfil those tissues who aren’t at the top! metabolism – who are the micronutrients mates you need on board to ensure efficacy and safety & elimination – situations of both increased losses and increased retention and risk
• Understanding how micronutrients are differently regulated and being able to recognise what these regulatory signals are telling us about the patient’s requirements and how to respond to these
• Truly personalising the prescription – How to map what is most nutritionally meaningful about each patient
• Various supplement delivery systems – including a discussion of the pros, cons and place for hyperfunctionalised forms e.g. nanoparticles, liposomes, activated etc

Practitioner Only Cardiometabolic syndrome comprises some of the most prevalent chronic illnesses plaguing men over 35 years old and the incidence rates are increasing in the developed world. It is imperative that we identify and mitigate the root cause drivers of cardiometabolic diseases and recent discoveries, from human microbiome studies, suggests that the microbiome may play a causal role in the onset and progression of numerous conditions under this umbrella. If the microbiome is a key driver, it signifies that an ecological problem is at the root and that the ecosystem could be modulated to dramatically reduce risk. This lecture will outline the role of the microbiome in the onset and progression of cardiometabolic syndrome and low testosterone in men and will discuss mitigating strategies that can easily be incorporated into practice.
