“There were a lot of facts and insights into why people got sick that did not make their way into the doors of medical schools.”–Leo Galland on why he became a functional doctor on the Autoimmune Summit
The Autoimmune Summit is another free online conference addressing a medical topic. We have seen many of these online conferences get much needed information to different communities. It all began with Tom O’Bryan’s The Gluten Summit–which changed the lives of a few people I know–who had been diagnosed with gluten intolerance but found the gluten free diet too difficult to maintain. After viewing The Gluten Summit, with the knowledge they learned, they were able to shift to a gluten free diet.
The Autoimmune Summit is another comprehensive conference during which Dr. Amy Myers, the author of The Autoimmune Solution, interviews 38 functional medical doctors on alternative approaches to treating autoimmune diseases.
It is free to sign up HERE to listen to the events until November 18th. It takes just a minute to sign up and then you can listen to see if you are interested in the five or so lectures that are streamed each day. The Autoimmune Summit is also available after November 18th for $67.
I am not affiliate of this event–but I would like to share it with
others as it is a good way to get an idea about the different approaches
and to hear doctors speak about research and treatment of autoimmune
disorders. Here is today’s line up…
