Description:
This course, presented by Dr. James Greenblatt, introduces a functional medicine model for anorexia nervosa (AN) treatment and recovery. Research supporting associations between metabolic abnormalities and micronutrient imbalances will be objectively reviewed, illuminating critical treatment targets for today’s functional psychiatry practice and providing an empirically validated blueprint for personalized interventions. Upon completion, students will be able to substantiate the clinical utility of a functional medicine approach for AN, and safely incorporate evidence-based treatment strategies into existing therapeutic models to maximize patient outcomes.
This is an introductory program for all mental health professionals.
Learning Objectives:
Describe the biological functions of zinc, essential fatty acids and magnesium and their relevance to AN symptoms or pathogenesis.
Identify the relationships between veganism/vegetarianism, celiac disease, digestive enzymes and anorexia nervosa.
