About this Event
This session emphasizes a root cause approach to digestive and metabolic health, with a special focus on the critical role gut health plays in overall well-being. Participants will explore how imbalances in the gut can impact not only digestion, but also energy, mood, immunity, and long-term metabolic function. We will discuss how lab testing can be used to uncover food sensitivities, digestive dysfunction, and metabolic markers, enabling more personalized and effective nutrition strategies. The session will provide practical tools for identifying dietary and lifestyle triggers, restoring gut balance, and supporting digestive function for lasting health benefits. Participants will gain insight into how improving gut health can positively influence the entire body, from reducing inflammation to enhancing nutrient absorption. Interactive discussions and actionable resources will empower participants to take control of their health with confidence. Attendees will also receive a copy of the presentation slides for ongoing reference, as well as a handout with gut-supportive recipes to help them put the strategies into practice immediately.
