*Functional Medicine for the Registered Dietician: A New Paradigm in

Chronic Disease Management */presented by Coco Newton, MPH, RD, CCN and

Kathie Swift, MS, RD/

Nutrition is the cornerstone of Functional Medicine. In this webinar, we

will define functional medicine and describe how the advent of

personalized medicine is a foundation of the functional medicine

approach. We will show how metabolic assessment, along with diet and

evidence-based application of nutritional supplements can address the

underlying factors of pathologic symptoms and disease. The RD who

practices functional medicine has tools to use in chronic disease,

bringing inspiration to one's practice and validation of the power of

nutrition in medicine. Join this webinar for an introduction to

functional medicine and learn how this could transform your practice.

*Nutrigenomics in Clinical Practice */presented by Ruth DeBusk, PhD, RD

and Colleen Draper, MS, RD/

As research continues to advance in the areas of systems biology and

nutrition, the science of nutritional genomics has begun to unfold.

Within each of our 25,000 genes, we have variations, often single

nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), that result in changes in the way our

bodies respond to food, supplements, medications, and other aspects of

our environment, as well as in our unique nutritional requirements. In

this Webinar, we will review the basics of genetics and nutritional

genomics, highlighting some scientific examples and the use of testing

in functional medicine practice. This timely and exciting presentation

will give you a sense of the field as it is now and an understanding of

how predictive genetic testing can be integrated into your practice.
