Module VII: A Metabolic and Functional Approach to Inflammation and Autoimmune Disease 2016

The module also focuses on autoimmune disease, such as how environmental toxins play a role and how early detection can be implemented.

Objectives: Identify the micronutrient insufficiencies that lead to DNA and mitochondrial damage Recognize the intracellular signaling pathways, cellular biology, and molecular biology of immunity and inflammation Describe the important interactions of the endocrine system with immunity Discuss gastrointestinal manifestations of autoimmune disease Review the role of heavy metals, genes, environment, and biotoxic exposures in autoimmunity Compare integrative oncology protocols and immune nutritional support techniques
