Health and Weight management seminar
- Ever wondered what your gut bacteria have to do with your weight?
- Do you know the influence these bacteria have on your overall health?
- Do you want to learn how to improve your health and your weight with probiotics, prebiotics, detoxification, good nutrition, and stress management?
Your gut microbiome may be the key to your metabolism and your weight!
There are 10 times as many gut bacteria as there are cells in the human body! Yet we live our lives oblivious to their presence or their function. Why are they present, and do they help or hinder us? Recent research appears to indicate a link between a healthy microbiome and management of health conditions.
During this 90 minute seminar you will learn:
- How your gut microbiome may affect your health and weight
- How to improve your overall health and manage your microbiome through nutrition, stress management, and supplements.
- How to manage weight and balance your microbiome for life
Specific topics that will be covered in detail at this seminar:
- Define the microbiome and describe/discuss its relationship to us (the host)
- Discuss how an unbalanced microbiome can create poor health
- Review the research on how weight may be influenced by our microbiome
- Describe how weight & the microbiome are affected by:
- foods we eat
- organic vs non-organic
- probiotics and prebiotics
- stress
- Develop strategies to manage weight via managing our microbiome
- Compare and contrast calorie counting to gut microbial approaches in achieving sustainable weight management
