Methylation is a fundamental biochemical process with far-reaching implications for human health. This presentation will offer an in-depth exploration of methylation, its clinical significance, and the impact of methylation imbalances on health outcomes.

Methylation is involved in cardiovascular health, detoxification, neurotransmitter synthesis, hormone metabolism, DNA expression, immune modulation and fetal development. Analyzing key methylation biomarkers provides valuable insight into human physiology. Plasma levels of methionine, s-Adenosyl methionine (SAM), s-Adenosyl homocysteine (SAH), homocysteine, cystathionine and cysteine provide a functional assessment of the methylation cycle. Attendees will walk away with an understating of these biomarkers, enhanced understanding of methylation dynamics and their impact on clinical outcomes.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the role of methylation in human physiology
• Comprehend objective biomarkers of the methylation cycle, including the methylation ratio, methionine, SAM, SAH, homocysteine, cystathionine and cysteine
• Explore the clinical significance of methylation imbalances
• Discuss case applications and therapeutic strategies based on methylation status

Many people experience shifts in nutrient levels due to lifestyle habits, dietary choices, or long term physical and emotional stress. These changes may influence how the body supports cellular energy, maintains a balanced mood, and handles daily mental demands.

In this educational session, Dr. Krista Anderson-Ross, a naturopathic physician with over 20 years of clinical experience and expertise in functional lab testing, will explore how key nutrients including B vitamins, magnesium, zinc, and CoQ10 can help support healthy brain function and cellular energy processes. She will discuss how nutrient depletion may affect energy levels, oxidative balance, and emotional well being, and how personalized nutrition strategies may help promote overall mental resilience.

Learning Objectives:

• Discover how nutrient patterns may influence mitochondrial and cognitive function
• Learn about essential nutrients that can support mental focus and emotional well being
• Explore how functional testing tools like neurotransmitter panels and methylation profiles can offer insights for personalized wellness planning

Join Lylen Ferris, ND, Julia Malkowski, ND, DC, Jeannie Gorman, MS, CCN, and Laura Neville, ND for a 6-week immersive bootcamp designed to help you master the GI360™ test-combining advanced microbiome analysis with comprehensive digestive function assessment.

This bootcamp offers a clinical deep dive into interpreting commensals, pathogens, and biomarkers of digestion, inflammation, and immune activation-translating lab data into targeted, root-cause treatment strategies for GI-driven chronic conditions.

Learning Objectives:

• Comprehensive interpretation strategies for GI360™ results-including microbiome diversity, pathogenic bacteria, dysbiosis patterns, and digestive function markers (e.g., elastase, SCFAs, steatocrit).
• Root-cause connections between GI findings and systemic conditions like autoimmunity, metabolic dysfunction, and neuroinflammation.
• Evidence-based protocols for addressing bacterial overgrowth, enzyme insufficiencies, leaky gut, and immune dysregulation using diet, botanicals, and targeted supplementation.
• Case-based guidance on integrating GI360™ insights into personalized treatment plans, progress tracking, and long-term gut healing strategies.
• Engage in 6 live Q&A sessions with the Doctor's Data team!

The first live session is on Thursday, July 24th, 2025. We hope to see you there!

Our understanding of immunotolerance and autoimmunity, through gut-based exposure, has grown exponentially over the years. This broadened understanding of gut based immune priming elucidates new targets for immune regulation in autoimmune conditions. As our understanding of the microbiome increases, we can understand the mechanisms that skew and support immune tolerance and T-cell differentiation. A key regulator in many autoimmune conditions includes the interaction between Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a bacterial endotoxin, and Treg cells. Although LPS is ubiquitous to Gram-negative bacteria, and created by several commensal bacterial Genera, immune regulation to LPS also involves the interaction of Gram-positive flora such as Bifidobacter. These interactions will determine programming of naive T-cells and influence the balance of the immune response. We will also look at the wealth of research around other analytes related to autoimmunity such as short chained fatty acids, particular species and interventions to change them. Review of the microbiome and its activity in immune function increases our clinical understanding and management of autoimmune conditions such as Rheumatoid arthritis, and Crohn's Disease, to name a few.
