From Labs to Protocols: Mastering Functional Medicine Testing for Root Cause Care
$249.00
With 7 hours of CE credits, this event features leading experts like Dr. Tom Guilliams, Dr. Robert Silverman, Dr. Lara Zakaria, and Dr. Melody Hartzler, who will guide participants through cutting-edge topics such as the gut-immune interface, food sensitivities, autoimmune disease, and hormonal imbalances. Attendees will gain actionable insights into advanced diagnostic testing, evidence-based lifestyle interventions, and personalized treatment protocols to address chronic conditions effectively.
This conference is ideal for practitioners seeking to integrate functional medicine principles into their practice. Through interactive workshops and case studies, participants will learn to interpret complex lab results, uncover root causes of dysfunction, and design patient-centered care plans. By attending, healthcare providers will enhance their ability to deliver long-term wellness solutions that go beyond symptom management, ultimately improving patient outcomes in a holistic and sustainable way.
This program offers continuing education credits for Pharmacists.

The Gut-Immune Interface in Autoimmune and Auto-Inflammatory Conditions
By: Tom Guilliams
Learning Objectives
- Describe the role of the gastrointestinal tract barrier in immune surveillance and its impact on autoimmune and auto-inflammatory conditions.
- Identify key mediators of inflammation and their significance in functional medicine approaches to immune system balance.
- Evaluate the relationship between gut integrity and systemic inflammation in clinical scenarios.
- Discuss evidence-based lifestyle interventions to modulate the immune system and support gut health.
10:45 AM – 12:15 AM EST
Unveiling the Gut-Immune Connection: Food Sensitivities, Barrier Function, and Clinical Applications
By: Robert Silverman, DC, DACBN, DCBCN, MS, CCN, CNS, CSCS, CIISN, CKTP, CES, HKC, FAKTR
Learning Objectives
- Explain the mechanisms by which food sensitivities develop and their relationship to gut barrier dysfunction.
- Differentiate between types of food sensitivity testing, including IgE, IgG, and IgA, and explain how immune complexes and complement factors influence immune responses.
- Interpret key biomarkers, including Candida antibodies, Zonulin, and Occludin in the context of intestinal permeability and immune dysfunction.
- Evaluate clinical case studies to identify patterns of gut-related immune dysfunction and implement diagnostic strategies.
- Design protocols integrating food sensitivity testing and gut barrier assessments and nutritional supplementation to optimize patient outcomes in functional medicine.
1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
The Intersection of Immune and Metabolic Health: A Root Cause Approach to Autoimmune Disease
By: Lara Zakaria, PharmD, CNS, IFMCP
Learning Objectives
- Analyze case studies of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and pre-diabetes to identify common inflammatory and metabolic patterns.
- Select appropriate functional and integrative lab tests to assess thyroid function, inflammation, and metabolic health.
- Interpret lab results to uncover root causes of metabolic dysfunction and immune dysregulation.
- Develop practical, patient-centered protocols that are simple to implement in clinical practice.
- Collaborate with peers in interactive discussions to apply workshop content to real-world clinical scenarios.
3:30 PM – 5:30 PM
Integrative Case Workshop: Navigating Gut Health, Food Sensitivities, and Hormonal Imbalances
By: Melody Hartzler, PharmD, BCACP, BC-ADM, ABAAHP
Learning Objectives
- Analyze case studies involving gut health, food sensitivities, and hormonal and adrenal imbalances in a functional medicine framework.
- Identify appropriate lab panels and functional tests for assessing gut integrity, immune dysfunction, and hormone-adrenal health.
- Interpret lab results to uncover the root causes of gastrointestinal and hormonal imbalances.
- Develop actionable protocols to address gut-related immune dysfunction, hormone dysregulation, and adrenal imbalances.
- Collaborate in interactive group discussions to apply workshop concepts to clinical practice.
