Watch the webinar: How to identify and assess leaky gut with the Advan

Learn the science behind leaky gut, and how to accurately and effectively test for it, with this masterclass from Dr Cheryl Burdette.

Lesson aim

In this webinar, Dr Burdette will discuss common causes of gut lining damage, intestinal permeability (IP) development and how the gut is our window to illness prevention and remission.

By addressing the triggers of histamine, LPS and food sensitivities, as well as the body’s ability to handle the assault, through enzymes such as DAO, we can halt inflammation, reverse IP and truly practice healthcare.

Learning objectives

To review the literature and data around direct markers of leaky gut and understand what clinical conditions are most relevant in terms of assessment.
To look at and define the role of gut-based inflammation in pathologies that extend beyond the gut such as auto-immunity and mental emotional disorders.
To understand the benefits of using the Advanced Intestinal Barrier Assessment to identify and assess leaky gut in patients.

To examine effective gut-based interventions.
