The microbiome and the immune system are inextricably connected and the immune system would cease to function without the microbiome.
This presentation will provide a review of the components of the immune system, the kinetics of our immune response and the critical support and check-points managed by the microbiome.
One of our most powerful tools in fighting invading pathogens is having a healthy microbiome and this talk will illustrate what exactly that means.
Learning Objectives
- Review of our immune response and kinetics to a new pathogen
- Learn about how the microbiome helps the development and function of the immune system
- Learn how to increase overall resiliency by improving the microbiome and paying attention to specific types of dysbiosis
- Leave with specific action items that can be incorporated into practice on Monday morning
