THE CANARY’S SONG: Neuroinflammation & Neurodegeneration Early Biomarkers of a Brain on Fire with Tom O’Bryan from the NANP 2022 HEALCon. Take this quiz to earn 1.5 NANP CECs.

Dr. Tom O’Bryan’s goal for you is ‘Making It Easy to Do the Right Thing’. As an internationally recognized, admired, and compassionate speaker focusing on food sensitivities, environmental toxins, and the development of autoimmune diseases, Dr. Tom’s audiences discover that it is through a clear understanding of how you got to where you are, that you and your Dr. can figure out what it will take to get you well.

Dr. O’Bryan is considered a ‘Sherlock Holmes’ for chronic disease and teaches that recognizing and addressing the underlying mechanisms that activate an immune response is the map to the highway towards better health. He holds teaching Faculty positions with the Institute for Functional Medicine and the National University of Health Sciences. He has trained and certified tens of thousands of practitioners around the world in advanced understanding of the impact of wheat sensitivity and the development of individual autoimmune diseases.

Presentation Description:
This Presentation will address both the latest cutting-edge laboratory testing to identify the mechanisms of BBB permeability, the most common triggers of a ‘Brain on Fire’, and the over 40 biomarkers (gauges on the dashboard) of a brain on fire. 

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the 5 Pillars in the development of chronic inflammatory diseases 
• Understand the mechanisms involved in Molecular Mimicry 
• Realize the limitations in current laboratory medicine 
• Understand what is required for comprehensive biomarkers of a brain on fire
