The Impact of Environmental Pollutants on Food Sensitivities, Allergies, and the Microbiome
Presented by Dr. Chris D. Meletis, ND
Environmental pollutants (EPs) serve as endocrine disruptors that contribute to allergies, asthma, and altered microbiome ecology.
In this webinar, we will present scientific literature and case studies that support the strategic removal of EPs such as parabens, phthalates, and other toxins to reduce inflammation and improve gut health. We will explore how we, as clinicians, can quantify our patients’ total EP burden with an easy-to-collect urine sample and help them to establish a stronger foundation for controlling food sensitivities, allergies, eczema, atopic and non-atopic conditions. Differences in susceptibility and health impact relative to gender and age will also be discussed.
