Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals: What Every Health Professional & Health Educator Needs To Know August 3, 2023 - 1PM PST Duration: 75 Minutes Endocrine-Disrupting chemicals are one of the primary threats to human health. As health professionals who are actively supporting clients, patients, or customers in optimizing health, part of this work must include an in-depth discussion of environmental chemicals as a whole, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals in particular. With over 1,000 chemicals already identified as being endocrine-disrupting, and ubiquitous exposure, the consensus among environmental health researchers, and organizations like The Endocrine Society, The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and even the World Health Organization is that health professionals need to support clients on toxicant avoidance. In this session, you'll learn:

NEUROPLASTICITY AND BRAIN LONGEVITY
December 12, 2022 @ 11am PST
Lecturer: Aga Szmitkowska, Ph.D, Duration - 45 minutes, Q&A follows.
Neuroplasticity is a term used to describe a broad spectrum of neuronal activities encompassing multiple mechanisms involved in the changes that occur in the brain during one's life. These include the brain’s ability to modify, adapt, and change its structure and function as a response to life experiences. These changes are regulated by various neurotransmitters like glutamate, acetylcholine, epinephrine, and dopamine and their varying expression levels. Suboptimal expression of these transmitters may lead to cognitive decline as age progresses. There are many ways of improving neuroplasticity through activities for cognitive development. In this talk, you will find suggestions on how to incorporate those activities into your practice and prolong the healthy mental longevity of your clients.

HOW METABOLOMIC COMMUNICATIONS AFFECTS HEALTHY AGING? SENDING THE RIGHT SIGNALS
January 23, 2023 at 11:00 AM PST
Lecturer: Lahiri Kanth Nanduri Ph.D, Duration - 45 minutes, Q&A follows.
Communication is one of the most critical factors for the smooth functioning of many professional, personal, or even biological processes. In the case of biological processes, understanding the metabolic pathways and their mechanisms of signaling driving the process of many biological activities is crucial. This is also important to understand aging or age-related diseases, treat such diseases or even provide information for healthy aging.
Most of the current interventions, dietary, genetic, or pharmaceutical, targeting pathways considered to be longevity mediators are linked to metabolic signaling. In this talk, we will discuss some of these pathways and how they affect health and longevity which may be crucial for healthy aging or for addressing age-related diseases.

COACHING CLIENTS TO ACHIEVE THEIR WEIGHT LOSS GOALS
February 13, 2023 @ 3:00 pm PST
Lecturer: Shelly-Anne Mckay, NBC-HWC, PCC, CPCC, CCRC, CPRC, CFAA, SRCD - Duration - 45 minutes, Q&A follows.
Many clients come to us with the goal of losing weight; especially after a few diet attempts failed. They often start strong and then in a few weeks come to session saying they “have fallen off track”. Does this sound familiar? Do your clients struggle with this? Do you at times feel like you have tried everything with them, and they just can not seem to stick to their diet or prescribed protocol? Do you feel like you just aren’t equipped to support them to create and achieve success despite your top-quality health coach training?
Truly understanding the core coaching competencies and how to leverage them in a way that really taps into our clients’ deepest desires, intrinsic motivations and vision for wellness sounds easier than it is. Together we will explore how to truly achieve this and do so in a way that has your clients moving towards their goals, creating successes and showing up for sessions with increased zest and drive. You will also gain a greater understanding as to the deeper factors that may be at play for some extremely challenging clients, how to spot red flags, what to do when they arise and what options exist to dive deeper into this subject matter with them.

HPA Axis + Chronic Stress: Consequences, Adaptations and Integrative Holistic Approaches
Speaker: Marla Samuel, DNM, MSc Nutrition, BA, CNP, RNCP, DipHom, CFMP
PART 1: March 8, 2023 at 11am PST
PART 2: March 29, 2023 at 11am PST
Stress is a reality of being human. We are constantly adapting to new situations, like a global pandemic, or life changes that throw us off balance, such as the loss of a family member, divorce, a new baby., etc. However, we don’t often consider the long term effects of chronic stress which may have existed since childhood. These early developmental subtle energies penetrate the physiological, emotional, mental, and spiritual development of a human being and its effects are much more difficult to grasp.We do know stress takes a toll on the body in ways we are only beginning to understand.
In fact, some researchers claim 75-90% of today’s diseases in western society are related to stress mechanisms of the body.Aren’t we always adapting to something? As humans, is this exhaustive pace of maintaining homeostasis sustainable?It is the challenging task of the Nutritionist to create a treatment plan that addresses the clients overwhelm and imbalance. The question is, will the plan just address the residing physical body, or are there other factors at play, such as the shock-like wave effects of early life stress which may have shaped the current way in which one has developed their internalized and externalized adaptive responses?
Marla Samuel will discuss the many tools we have as Nutritionists to provide individualized support to help clients regain their well-being, on all levels. By utilizing our craft as food medicine healers, and empowering clients to create new nourishing food and lifestyle explorations, there is an opportunity to transform the maladaptive stress mechanisms, creating unlimited healing opportunities.
What you will Learn:
1 CE Credits available per event for members who have attended the entire live event. Credits cannot be awarded for watching the recording after the live event. Partial credits will not be awarded for attending part of the event.

August 10 - 11am PST - Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential
Lecturer: Naftali Horowitz PHd, Harvard stem cell and regenerative biology department, duration - 45 minutes, Q&A follows.
While most somatic mutations accumulated with age bear no functional consequence, certain mutations, especially those in the hematopoietic system, may lead to an outgrowth of blood cells derived from a single, mutated, progenitor. This condition, usually referred to as clonal hematopoiesis is highly prevalent in elderly populations and can have various consequences ranging from blood cancers, to immune deficiencies. In this talk we will explore the molecular underpinnings of the process, its implications in health and longevity as well as current efforts to address and potentially treat the disorder.

TAKE GLYCANS TO HEART
When: November 10, 2022 at 11am PST
Lecturer: Dr. Marina Martinic Kavur, duration – 30 minutes, Q&A follows
In this lecture we will “Take glycans to heart“ and give you an insight into the importance of glycans for cardiovascular health. Ageing increases the risk of cardiovascular disease through a complex network of molecular events. However, that risk is not the same for all the chronological age contemporaries. Instead, it depends on a myriad of factors, including blood cholesterol, LDL, lifestyle choices, genetics, and medical history. Glycosylation affects cardiovascular health in multiple ways. Directly (e.g. in the case of congenital glycosylation disorders) or indirectly through altered glycan patterns on the cells of the blood vessels and immune cells, as well as alterations of glycosylation patterns associated with an unhealthy lifestyle. This lecture will introduce you to the effects of glycosylation on cardiometabolic disease mechanisms and then focus on the Immunoglobulin G glycans and the latest discoveries about their correlation with cardiovascular health.

February 10 - 11am PST - HEALTHY LONGEVITY APPROACH IN HEALTH COACHING
Speaker: Aga Szmitkowska, Phd, duration - 45 minutes, Q&A follows.
This lecture will explain how developing efficient health interventions, such as disease-prevention and health-promotion programs targeting ageing as a process and not only specific age-related conditions, might minimise the cost pressure related to population ageing. The worldwide demographic trend of increasing the proportion of elderly persons could likely explain the dramatic rise in interest of both the public and medical communities in biogerontology research. The engagement of ageing adults in wellness programs is still low. The reason for that might be a lack of programs designed mainly for older populations and managing more than one chronic disease. Therefore, identifying health program activities and delivery characteristics appealing to ageing adults, especially those with multiple chronic conditions, may help design more engaging programs. The artificial life extension is often accompanied by reduced or delayed morbidity. For example, dietary restriction was shown to extend the lifespan, slow the functional decline rate, and delay the prevalence of age-related chronic diseases in different model organisms and human studies. For instance, centenarians, particularly those residing in so-called 'Blue Zones,' have exceptional longevity and remain free from disabilities and chronic illness to very old age due to the healthy longevity approaches.

March 10 - 11am PST - THE POWER OF LIFESTYLE CHANGE
Lecturer: Dr. Sc. Marina Martinić Kavur
Marina will show the powerful effect that even simple lifestyle interventions can have on your IgG N-glycans.
When people get their GlycanAge result, whether it's good or bad, their first question is: "What can I do to improve it?" Unlike genetic markers of health and aging, glycans are highly susceptible to the effects of the environment and can be changed. In the last couple of years, our team has been focused on getting answers on how to improve the GlycanAge profile with different lifestyle changes ranging from exercise regimen to obesity management and nutritional changes. This lecture will present a concise summary of the effects of different lifestyle interventions observed in scientific studies and case reports of individual client success stories.

April 20 - 11am PST - HORMONES - THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE ALLY OF THE YOUTH
Lecturers: Dr Julija Juric and Dr Marina Martinic Kavur, duration – 30 minutes, Q&A follows
This tackling title brings up the latest findings on how hormones regulate Glycan Age, a biomarker of inflammation and biological ageing.
Hormones are signalling molecules that orchestrate and harmonise the function of all systems in our body keeping it in balance (homeostasis). There are many possible mechanisms by which hormones can trigger the action of different body systems. If we think about the immune system, more specifically about antibodies, recent research has put forward an interesting theory of hormones directing immune responses by changing the composition of glycan coating on IgG antibodies. Glycans are complex sugar molecules that fine-tune the inflammatory potential and the mode of action of our antibodies.
This lecture will provide you with the latest insights into the relationship between hormones and altered IgG glycosylation in various hormone-associated physiological states like pregnancy, menopause and menstrual cycle, as well as pathological conditions like Hashimoto disease, stress, obesity and diabetes. It will also cover ageing and age-related diseases as the final result of the sex hormone reduction during the lifetime with examples of how important hormones are for individual´s biological age measured by doing a simple GlycanAge test.

June 10 - 11am PST - TAKE GLYCANS TO HEART - RESCHEDULED TO NOVEMBER
Lecturer: Dr. Marina Martinic Kavur, duration – 30 minutes, Q&A follows
In this lecture we will “Take glycans to heart“ and give you an insight into the importance of glycans for cardiovascular health. Ageing increases the risk of cardiovascular disease through a complex network of molecular events. However, that risk is not the same for all the chronological age contemporaries. Instead, it depends on a myriad of factors, including blood cholesterol, LDL, lifestyle choices, genetics, and medical history. Glycosylation affects cardiovascular health in multiple ways. Directly (e.g. in the case of congenital glycosylation disorders) or indirectly through altered glycan patterns on the cells of the blood vessels and immune cells, as well as alterations of glycosylation patterns associated with an unhealthy lifestyle. This lecture will introduce you to the effects of glycosylation on cardiometabolic disease mechanisms and then focus on the Immunoglobulin G glycans and the latest discoveries about their correlation with cardiovascular health.

HPA Axis + Chronic Stress: Consequences, Adaptations and Integrative Holistic Approaches with Marla Samuel
Stress is a reality of being human. We are constantly adapting to new situations, like a global pandemic, or life changes that throw us off balance, such as the loss of a family member, divorce, a new baby., etc. However, we don’t often consider the long term effects of chronic stress which may have existed since childhood. These early developmental subtle energies penetrate the physiological, emotional, mental, and spiritual development of a human being and its effects are much more difficult to grasp.
We do know stress takes a toll on the body in ways we are only beginning to understand. In fact, some researchers claim 75-90% of today’s diseases in western society are related to stress mechanisms of the body.
Aren’t we always adapting to something? As humans, is this exhaustive pace of maintaining homeostasis sustainable?
It is the challenging task of the Nutritionist to create a treatment plan that addresses the clients overwhelm and imbalance. The question is, will the plan just address the residing physical body, or are there other factors at play, such as the shock-like wave effects of early life stress which may have shaped the current way in which one has developed their internalized and externalized adaptive responses?
Marla Samuel will discuss the many tools we have as Nutritionists to provide individualized support to help clients regain their well-being, on all levels. By utilizing our craft as food medicine healers, and empowering clients to create new nourishing food and lifestyle explorations, there is an opportunity to transform the maladaptive stress mechanisms, creating unlimited healing opportunities.
What you will Learn:
- How to identify the key drivers of the Stress Response System
- How changes to adrenal hormones come from functional changes outside the adrenal gland
- The relationship between the gut and the brain and the effects of chronic stress on the gut and brain
- The effects of stress and HPA Dysfunction on Immune System “watch dogs”
- The effects of stress and HPA Dysfunction on neurotransmitters and mental health
- The effects of stress and HPA Dysfunction on other endocrine glands
- The relationship between the limbic system and the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)
- The correct use and understanding of lab testing results
- Defining what a “Top down approach “ is and how it can be applied in Nutritional practice
- Understanding and assessing perceived stress
- What are subtle energies?
- Energy medicine techniques
- Ancestral traditional effective treatment strategies for common conditions like Depression, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Auto-Immune conditions, IBS, SIBO, IBD
- Neural re-training techniques and programs
- Limbic re-training options
- Mindset treatment options
- Links to Health Questionnaires, Research, and videos will be provided

WHEN: Wednesday, August 11, 2021, at 11-1pm PST, “LIVE” 1 Hour Webinar + Q&A
There is an important marker of health that has been forgotten. It’s something that is not considered important anymore, because if it was, our whole health care system would operate in a different manner. It is resilience.
In the past 100 years, our living conditions have changed so much that we’ve removed the need to adapt. As a result, our resilience has plummeted. Most people are on the edge of crisis, waiting for that one thing – whether it be a stressful event, bacteria or virus, or chemical – to push them over the edge.In this presentation, Josh outlines how resilience is measured, achieved, and optimized.
