—Target Audience—
The educational design of this activity addresses the needs of Physicians, Pharmacists, Nurses, Dietitians, plus other healthcare and nutritional professionals involved in improved immune system support for patients and individuals.
 
Statement of Need:
The interest in nutrition, and especially herbs and supplements is the fastest growing area of Complementary and Integrative medicine. Not only is it the fastest growing area, but it is easily one of the most confusing and sometimes controversial areas as well. Health care professionals should take a proactive role, and public health policies should disseminate evidence-based information regarding consumption of herbal products. Through integrative medicine, the health care professional can combine the best of modern medical science in disease treatment and management while at the same time taking advantage of advances in nutritional technologies that can help support the body’s innate ability to optimize wellness and improve quality of life.
 
Courses are also priced and available individually
 
GlycoNutritionals Series
Part 1: The Basics of GlycoNutritionals

3 CE Hours,
2 Video DVDs and Syllabus

Faculty:
Dr. John Rollins

Optimal Wellness involves the body’s innate ability to maintain, repair, regulate and protect itself as well as to build new cells by utilizing daily vital nutrients. A comparatively recent, but significant development in the field of Glycobiology has been the introduction of glyconutrients as nutritional supplements for health support and their potential to help improve quality of life. This course reviews the basics of the science of glyconutrients and their wide-ranging involvement in the manufacture, structure and function of glycoconjugates necessary to optimize wellness. Additional reviews of the science will expand into the areas of prebiotic function, antioxidant activity and other aspects of the broad spectrum potential benefits glyconutrient supplements can play.
 
Part 2: Advanced GlycoNutrition in Optimum Wellness
4 CE Hours,
2 Video DVDs and Syllabus

Faculty:
Dr. Daniel Fouts

Supporting normal physiological processes is crucial regardless of whether one is striving to maintain or regain wellness and optimal quality of life. Understanding the principles of how glyconutrients are used by the body to help support those processes is a key component to utilizing more integrative approaches to health. Whether we are looking at the immune system, cognitive function or a myriad of other bodily functions, glyconutrients are major nutritional players. Measuring appropriate Biomarkers of Wellness can help us evaluate an individual’s progress.
 
 

Advances in Vitamin/Mineral Technology

5 CE hours,
3 Video DVDs and Syllabus


Faculty: Dr. Daniel Fouts and Dr. Steven Nugent

“You are just making expensive urine” has unfortunately been truer than we realized. However, that has changed! This course not only covers the basics of the various vitamins and minerals but also outlines the important issues of solubility, absorption and bioavailability of the THREE GENERATIONS of vitamin and mineral supplements now available. With almost 5000 thousand nutritional companies to choose from, an important added section to this course will provide information on how to more readily discern nutritional fact from aggressive and sometimes misleading marketing practices when it comes to choosing a specific vitamin and mineral supplement.
 
 

Antioxidants: Promoting Optimal Wellness
While Resisting Premature Aging

4 CE Hours,
2 Video DVDs and Syllabus


Faculty:
Dr. Daneil Fouts

Dr Lester Packer, author of “The Antioxidant Miracle” states that “It is virtually impossible to get the optimal amount of antioxidants through food alone.” Yet, there is major controversy in the medical literature over the benefits of antioxidant supplementation. This module examines biologic oxidation and the fundamental science of antioxidants, providing a basic understanding of their roles in helping to maintain health and, importantly, how to evaluate antioxidant supplement myth from fact.
