There are various risk factors that influence the incidence of NDD, these can be genetic, or non-genetic factors. Nutrition is the non-genetic factor that has shown the greatest influence on NDD incidence and development. The common factor in most NDD and metabolic diseases is a state of chronic inflammation, which is greatly influenced by nutrition. This course will explore the scientific data connecting diet and disease. Specific diets covered along with their scientific evidence included: the Ketogenic diet, fasting diet protocols, plant-based diets, the Paleo Diet, the Autoimmune Diet Protocol (AIP), the Wahls protocol, Gluten-free, casein-free diets, and the FODMAP diet. This course can be attended either live onsite, live online or on-demand.  Objectives: • Explore the role of diet in preventing and treating autoimmune disease (e.g. Autoimmune diet protocol, Paleo diet, the ketogenic diet, Fasting Protocols).  • State the relationship between gluten and autoimmune disease (e.g. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.).  • Explore research supporting the role of diet in treating and preventing neurodegenerative disorders (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s Disease, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis).  • Identify nutrition strategies that could help normalize intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and reduce inflammation linked to metabolic disease and neurodegenerative disorders.  • State the role of the ketogenic diet in neuromuscular and neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes and heart disease.  • List the benefits of the Wahl’s protocol in treating Multiple Sclerosis and other autoimmune diseases.  • State the evidence for plant-based diets in treating obesity, diabetes and heart disease.
