The Microbiome and Autoimmunity; Unlocking Clinical Opportunities for Health.
Robert Zoboski, DC, DACO, MS, President, Family Chiropractic Care S.C.
There has been a tsunami of clinical research since the completion of the human genome project in 2001. Did you know that two thirds of the human body consist of bacteria, viruses, fungi, prokaryotes, and archaea? Collectively, these micro-organisms are known as the microbiome. Also coined the "second brain', the gut microbiota communicates with the human host in a symbiotic fashion. Our lifestyles and environment modulate our gut microbiota and can lead to imbalances in its composition resulting in increased intestinal permeability. Uncontrolled intestinal permeability can modulate our immune response, and if left unchecked, can lead to autoimmune diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease and many others. With modern advances in diagnostic testing, it is now possible to detect antibodies early on in the disease spectrum. Early detection may allow preventative steps that may preempt disease manifestation via precise and precision treatment plans. This 'systems based' approach will fundamentally change the way medicine is delivered in the coming years. This presentation looks at the present status of how we, as "super organisms", have the capability to modify the way our genes express themselves, by changing our lifestyle, and healing our gut.

In today's fast-paced, hectic world, establishing and maintaining personal boundaries is crucial for navigating both professional environments and personal relationships. My approach to personal boundary setting is grounded in understanding the fundamental importance of boundaries in fostering healthy interactions and maintaining self-respect. In my sessions, I offer practical tips and guidance to help you begin to define boundaries that align with your values.Using a structured approach, I introduce participants to a structured approach to boundary setting. We delve into triggers, values, needs, and desires, while also addressing internal barriers and obstacles that may hinder boundary establishment. By incorporating techniques from different disciplines, participants will be introduced to practical skills that can lead to an improved ability to confidently assert their boundaries in various situations.
Throughout the journey, emphasis is placed on self-awareness, self-validation, and self-compassion. Celebrating successes and making adjustments along the way are integral parts of the process, fostering a sense of empowerment and resilience.
Ultimately, my goal is to empower individuals to set and maintain boundaries that honor their own needs and desires while fostering healthy and fulfilling relationships in both their professional and personal lives.
