Webinars

Understanding and Overcoming Antibiotic Resistance in the GI Tract
The basics of antibiotic resistance and the concept of natural synergists to overcome bacterial resistance mechanisms.

The Importance of Dysbiosis in the Upper GI Tract
Explore what’s known about dysbiosis in the upper GI tract (especially in the stomach and upper small intestine), and how advanced DNA-based stool testing may provide important clinical insights.

Estrogen Genomics Assessment and Potential Therapeutics
When interpreting estrogen genomics, it’s important to consider hormonal production, metabolism, detoxification, and receptor status.

Beyond Leaky Gut – Intestinal Barrier Assessment with GI-MAP™
A wide range of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases have been linked to reduced integrity of the intestinal barrier, including increased intestinal permeability.

The New GI-MAP Microbial Markers - What Clinicians Need to Know
The GI-MAP™ comprehensive stool analysis includes these commensal and opportunistic biomarkers – A. muciniphila, F. prausnitzii, Methanobacteriaceae (family), and Fusobacterium spp.

Approaches to Utilizing Clinical Nutrigenomics in Practice
How practitioners can use diet and nutraceuticals to influence genomic expressions for optimized health outcomes.

Important Gene Variants Influencing Immune Responses Related to Autoimmunity
Genomic studies have identified a number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are associated with risk for autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.

Pathogens, the Microbiome, and Chronic Disease: Gathering Insight with Genomics
Certain genomic variations, called SNPs, may increase susceptibility to pathogens and dysbiosis, and may also increase the risk for a range of chronic diseases, including autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

New Frontiers Podcast - Advances in Stool Testing - The GI-MAP GI-Microbial Assay Plus
Dr. Fitzgerald talks with Tony Hoffman about new advances in stool testing, how to use test results to improve patient outcomes, and the limitations of stool testing. Recorded 2/13/2019.

Digestive Insufficiency, Dysbiosis & Disease: Implications for Personalized Therapies
Numerous symptoms and conditions have been attributed to digestive insufficiency, which in turn often results in gut microbial imbalances.

Dysbiosis & Inflammation: Connecting the Dots with Cytokine Profiling
Cytokines play critical roles in mediating immune responses, and increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines have been linked to chronic inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.

Understanding Common Dysbiosis Patterns with GI-MAP
Learn how to recognize some of the most common dysbiosis patterns, and how they may be connected to gastrointestinal and systemic health imbalances.
