Register for this webinar before time runs out! Many mothers experience postnatal depletion, a condition characterised by prolonged exhaustion and a decline in both physical and mental well-being. Often overlooked, this issue differs from postpartum depression as it includes a wide range of symptoms caused by the cumulative stress of pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood. Join us for a 90-minute webinar with renowned integrative naturopath, Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor, and lecturer, Dr Miranda Myles. Gain insights into recognising and managing postnatal depletion and burnout, focusing on the women most at risk. In this session, Dr Myles will discuss: - The key differences between postnatal depletion and postpartum depression. - How postnatal depletion is linked to perimenopause and postpartum thyroiditis, particularly as more women are having children later in life. - Techniques for assessing, diagnosing, and understanding comorbidities, with a focus on the role of the HPO, HPA, and HPT axes. - Real-world case studies demonstrating practical management strategies. - Methods to support women’s health and well-being during the postnatal period. Discover how to effectively support your patients through their postnatal journey, enhancing their recovery and overall well-being.

😣 In a world where exhaustion, a culture of busyness, and pushing through have become the norm, addressing these challenges remain as crucial as ever. 😣 Stress perception significantly influences the degree to which an individual suffers from stress. Recent studies have shown that viewing stress as harmful amplifies its negative effects, whereas perceiving stress as a manageable challenge can mitigate its impact on health. For healthcare practitioners, understanding this dynamic is central in stress management strategies. While it's important to acknowledge the real and tangible impacts of stress on the individual, educating patients to reframe their stress perception can enhance resilience and reduce stress-related health issues. This article introduces the Mental Wellbeing Spiral (MWS) alongside the foundational principles of the General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS). It explores their practical applications in holistic medicine and their critical role in promoting resilience and sustainable healthcare practices. The synergy between the MWS and GAS equips healthcare practitioners with a powerful toolkit to navigate the dynamic, multifaceted terrain of mental wellbeing, stress, and burnout. By integrating these frameworks, practitioners can forge more resilient pathways for their patients, bringing together psychological insights with physiological responses to stress.

Using functional testing to support our clients holistically. In this week's podcast episode, academic and researcher Sinan Ali joins fx Medicine ambassador Adrian Lopresti to discuss the use and clinical relevance of utilising hormone and biomarker analysis for the management of mental health conditions. Together they discuss the benefits (and the down-side) of adopting various testing techniques to provide further insight into a patient’s clinical presentation, and to support clinical management. Dr. Sinan discusses the research supporting the use of cortisol, BDNF, oxytocin, corticotropin-releasing hormone and many other hormones for hormonal and mental health conditions and others that present exciting opportunities for future research in this area of functional pathology. This podcast is packed with clinical pearls for the practitioner looking to utilise functional pathology testing to enhance our clinical practice when working with patients experiencing mental health or hormonal imbalances.

The power of optimising gut health for disease prevention. In recent years, there has been an explosion of research describing the role of the human microbiota and its influence on health and disease. While we still have much to learn, there is nevertheless, wide epidemiological and experimental evidence to support the notion that the microbial community of the infant gut plays a profound role in programming and directing immune development. We now know that a loss of microbial diversity in infancy can be a key driver in the development of numerous chronic diseases in later life. There is also growing evidence for the use of probiotics in the management of specific immune related conditions. While the tendency of late has been to focus on the treatment of specific conditions with particular strains of bacteria, we must remember that it is this principle of ecological diversity that will ultimately contribute to homeostasis. This is achieved through key environmental and dietary factors; the earlier in life the better. In this infographic we explore the intimate relationship between the developing microbiota of the infant gut and immune health and maturation.

The immune system is significantly complex in its physiology and functionality 🤧 Maintaining homeostasis involves an intricate interaction between the innate and adaptive immune systems, and the cells, receptors, molecules and chemical substances that comprise these systems. This complexity also extends to the impact of many factors on immune function, including diet and nutritional status, lifestyle, physical activity levels, age, stress, microbiome composition, and physiological and genetic variability. The following herbs are researched and valued as interventions for immune health and related conditions through their numerous active constituents and complex actions. - Echinacea - Andrographis - Astragalus - Olive leaf - Elder - Thyme Our latest article, Herbal medicine interventions for immune support highlights some key therapeutics we as practitioners can utilise to optimise our patients immunity.

While acute stress enhances peripheral immune function, chronic and intense stress has the ability to inhibit innate and adaptive immune responses, negatively modifying various components of the immune system, increasing an individual’s vulnerability to infection. The notion that there exists crosstalk between the central nervous system and the immune system is a concept known as psychoneuroimmunology (PNI). While recent public health strategies have focused on social distancing and mask wearing to try and minimise infection, a growing body of research highlights the importance of better understanding the way in which psychoneuroimmunity may be used to support immunity while simultaneously offering insight as to why some individuals are more susceptible to infection than others. Chronic psychological stress may also increase intestinal permeability and dysbiosis. This article reviews the intricate connection between the nervous, immune and gastrointestinal systems.
