Experts from a variety of backgrounds share evidence-based information to help health professionals and community members address the challenges facing people to stay healthy.

The gut microbiome’s role in health has become clearer over the past few years — yet there is still much to learn about it. Join our health experts for a basic overview of the gut microbiome and hear about ongoing research into what researchers have learned about its impact on health across the human body, how the microbiome affects diseases and how to keep our gut microbiomes healthy. You’ll also learn about possible interventions to change the microbiome, and recent clinical trials with humans showing how changing the gut microbiome improved symptoms of autism spectrum disorder. With our one-hour, no-cost webinar, you’ll get the information you need to understand the importance of a healthy gut microbiome.
