Good day to you!
Today we continue the series of videos celebrating a few of our AFMC-certified practitioners – and key clinical insights we can all take away from their excellent case study assessments.
You will surely walk away with a string of pearls from this series. In this video, look for key insights about hormones, insulin resistance, estrogen dominance, testosterone metabolism (and how zinc levels can affect it), androgen dominance, hypothyroidism, xenoestrogens, and unexpected root causes of an elevated hsCRP level. Be on the lookout for these connections in your own patients and clients too.
Congratulations to Julie, a Nurse Practitioner and an SAFM graduate with an active practice in Australia, and her excellent work with a 19-year-old young woman with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), Hypothyroidism, Morbid Obesity, Low-grade Inflammatory symptoms, and occasional Irritable Bowel Symptoms. Indeed a complex one!
Check out the video and see what surprises you…
