The Gielgud50 minsPatients are increasingly seeking help from Integrative and Nutrition-focused practitioners for post-pandemic symptoms and cognitive issues. Recent estimates show that 5–30% of the population experiences post-COVID conditions, with over 200 connected symptoms. In Dr. Kristi's session, she delves into sub-phenotypes of PASC, exploring hypotheses related to viral persistence, mitochondrial dysfunction, immune dysregulation, organ injury, and microbiome challenges.

The Gielgud50 minsThe Tumor Immune Microenvironment is a complex ecosystem containing adaptive and innate immune system with tumor-promoting and anti-tumoral roles. Navigating and understanding these characteristics within the TME is critical for both diagnosis and an individualized treatment strategy design.

This presentation explores the complex relationships between the immune system, metabolic processes, and the impacts of nutrition and lifestyle. It covers the basics of immune functionality, the critical role of metabolic pathways, and how dietary and lifestyle choices can enhance immune efficiency. Exploring recent research, the talk offers practical strategies for integrating non-pharmacological interventions to improve immune health through personalized dietary and lifestyle modifications.

Being in balance with nature is an essential element for immune system function. An individual can harmonize with natural rhythms and biomes through plant communication, often referred to as xenohormesis. In this presentation, the emerging molecular and clinical science of plants and their phytonutrients will be discussed relative to their effects on the immune system, along with the practical application of foods, dietary supplements, assessments, and tools for clients to implement a nature-based, plant-enriched life.

Two groups of small molecules, widely neglected in nutritional practice, produced both endogenously and consumed from exogenous sources, are increasingly recognised as critical modulators of processes governing both our immune response and longevity. Find out how levels of each small molecule group can be modulated in ways that can optimise psychoneuroimmunological function, gene expression and telomerase activity.
