Kathrin Brunner Shares Material From Her Con Ed Course
Join us Tuesday, May 3 at 7:00 PM ET/4:00 pm PT for a 1 hour webinar, as Kathrin Brunner presents live from her kitchen—as you follow along in yours—how to ferment “Dilly Kraut” and take an in-depth look at the deeply therapeutic benefits of fermented foods. While fermentation has gained in popularity over the years, there are many misconceptions about how they impact our microbiomes and are used to improve health. Knowing which type of ferment, would benefit which type of condition, is essential to recommending them successfully in clinical practice.

Lisa Pitel-Killah Shares Material From Her Con Ed Course
Join us Tuesday, May 10 at 7:00 PM ET/4:00 pm PT for a 1 hour webinar, as Lisa Pitel-Killah presents a detailed analysis of calcium!

Osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, inability to lose weight, and blood sugar dysregulation are just a few of the issues that may arise from calcium that has been deposited in the tissues. One way to identify this issue and support the body is with HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis).
