Description

2009 Food Sensitivities on DigiVision :: 28 Lectures, 2 Full Days

This course will provide a complete, scientifically validated program on the effective diagnosis and treatment of food sensitivity, so that the participants can immediately use the provided insights and modalities to achieve effective long-term, cost-effective medical outcomes for their patients. You will benefit from a practicum and immediately begin to use quantitative skin and sublingual testing for foods, drugs and other substances/situations, like infections, that may effect testing.

Educational Objectives:

  • Discuss an overview of the model of environmental medicine and the dynamic nature of biological systems, interactions and dysfunctions that cause many common chronic diseases;
  • Discuss the multiple mechanisms involved with foods contributing to illness;
  • Review food patterns in illnesses, and the various mechanisms behind them;
  • Appreciate the rationale of the Paleolithic Diet concepts;
  • Discuss the different types of food elimination/challenge diets used for diagnosis of food sensitivity;
  • Discuss the use of in vitro testing in the diagnosis of food-related problems;
  • Discuss the rotary diversified diet, stressing its benefits for both diagnosis and treatment, with practical information on how to teach it to patients;
  • Benefit from a practicum and immediately begin to use quantitative skin and sublingual testing for foods;
  • Perform insurance coding for allergy and treatment vaccines;
  • Benefit from illustrative case study examples for foods, with interactive discussion between faculty and attendees.
