Role of Nitric Oxide, Glutathione, & Exercise in the Immune Sys.

Presented by Dr. Shane Steadman, DC, DACNB, DCBCN, DCCN, FAAIM, CCCN, CNS 8 CEs in PA, MD, DE, OH & pending in NJ This unique 1-day seminar is designed to educate the healthcare professional in understanding the physiological impact that nitric oxide, glutathione, and exercise can have on immune physiology, blood sugar, and various health conditions. Topics presented will include a review of the basic physiology and mechanisms of the nitric oxide and glutathione systems as they relate to autoimmune physiology. In addition, attendees will understand when to and when not to use exercise as a health strategy for clients and approaches to avoid metabolic overtraining syndrome. A review of human physiology will be followed by laboratory applications, differential diagnoses, and clinical applications. Attendees will also be presented case studies with clinical applications, assessment, and health maintenance (including dietary, lifestyle, and nutritional support) from an evidence-based approach/model, and when to refer for further consultation and/or evaluation. Important clinical jewels and insights will be discussed. Upon completion of this seminar, attendees will be able to:  Understand the impact of exercise on brain-derived neurotrophic factor and brain health  Understand immunometabolism, including the role the immune system plays in metabolism, body composition, and weight gain  Identify when to and when not to use exercise as a health strategy for clients and approaches to avoid metabolic overtraining syndrome  Understand the glutathione recycling mechanisms and the role of nitric oxide and glutathione on autoimmune physiology  Understand practitioner tips and insights into dietary and nutritional support strategies for health maintenance from an evidence-based approach/model  Identify cases that need to be referred for further consultation and/or evaluation
