New insights are reshaping how we understand immune function and the gut’s role in overall wellness. Research has shown that while genetics contribute to autoimmune susceptibility, environmental and lifestyle factors may influence immune activity and gut health. Dr. Alessio Fasano’s work at Harvard helped identify Zonulin as a marker involved in regulating tight junction permeability in the gut, offering a deeper understanding of how gut barrier integrity may relate to immune system signaling. In this session, Dr. Cheryl Burdette, ND, a leader in integrative and naturopathic medicine, will explore the emerging science around gut permeability, oxidative stress, and immune system balance. As Director of Education at Progressive Medical Center and co-founder of Precision Point Diagnostics, Dr. Burdette draws on clinical and research expertise to share how these factors may contribute to overall immune health.
