What you'll learn:
In this class, we will review the complex dynamics of the immune system and its role in maintaining health and triggering autoimmunity. We'll examine the key players in immune function, including T cells, B cells, and cytokines, and explore the factors that can lead to autoimmune responses. The session will also cover the latest biochemical mechanisms and research updates, offering insights into how immune dysregulation occurs. Participants will gain practical knowledge on evidence-informed dietary and herbal strategies and traditional approaches to support immune balance, crucial for practitioners working with clients facing immune challenges. We will also cover safety considerations when working with clients who have autoimmune conditions.
