Wellness Symposium in Telluride : Evidence Based Medicine

Join us for this 3-day Evidence-Based Conference on Wellness. Dr. Safdi is recognized by physicians as one of the world’s foremost medical expert on nutrition and health.

This conference is unique in that we will explore longevity, wellness, micro nutrients, common medical disorders, and dwell in depth into nutritional science. It will all be supported not by testimonials but by evidence based medicine.

Some fascinating topics include:

1. What is behind the longevity and wellness associated with certain populations? How do we emulate them?
2. How much exercise do we need and for how long? Can you exercise too much?
3. How much protein do we need at different stages of our life? It does change with age.
4. What are the risks and benefits of different supplements and multivitamins?
5. What screening tests should we have or recommend and at what ages?
6. A discussion of genetic testing. When is it appropriate and what tests should be performed?
7. Risks and benefits of medical radiation. How much radiation does a CT or PET scan expose to average patient? Other ways to perform imaging without radiation exposure.
8. The pros and cons of mammogram's and what is on the horizon for breast cancer screening.
9. What are some of the most beneficial phytochemical's in our foods.
10. An in depth discussion of Vitamin D. Where we are with our studies and what are all the benefits and potential risks.
11. Risks and benefits of common medications for heartburn and reflux.

We will discuss many more topics in a very didactic format.

This conference is appropriate for all medical professionals as well as the general public interested in nutrition.
