The Bio HealthWorks Institute’s Beyond Holistic Medicine: The Biological Wisdom of German New Medicine for Practitioners

In the early 1980s, a physician made a revolutionary discovery that diseases – from a cold to cancer – are not “caught,” nor are they malfunctions or malignancies. Instead, they are significant biological programs that assist us during times of unexpected distress.

Firmly anchored in our knowledge of embryology, GNM is a new biological science that reshapes our view of all symptoms and diseases.

This is an introductory course to Germanic Healing Knowledge. This teaches the five biological laws of GHK that explain the cause, the development and the natural healing of diseases and how to use it effectively in daily life.

Please note; this is a pre-requisite course (Level 1) to the Practitioner Course (Level 2) which is pending CE review.

Approximately 85% of all cancer cases are caused by diet and lifestyle. Food is fundamental. It can contribute to the development of cancer and help prevent and manage the cancer process.

Maryland University of Integrative Health’s Endocannabinoids, Cannabis and Immunity

Do endogenous endocannabinoids and medical cannabis have the same effect? As medical cannabis becomes legal in more states, understanding how it interacts with the immune system is critical. The study of cannabis led to the discovery of the endocannabinoid system. These endogenous neuronal compounds have profound effects on the immune system. This online lecture will discuss the effects of endocannabinoids as well as medical cannabis on immunity.

The research on cannabis effects on the immune system has been slow coming. However, considering that cannabis receptor 2 is primarily on lymphocytes, there is reason to believe that endocannabinoids and cannabis have profound immune effects. Initially, the only studies of cannabis and immunity were only in people with HIV. Recently, studies of healthy individuals have been completed.

This presentation will examine the effects of endocannabinoids on immune cells and cytokines. We will then address how cannabis affects the same cells. Finally, we will look at how cannabis can be used in immune dysfunction, such as that found in pain, autoimmunity, and infectious disease.

Learning Objectives:

As a result of this lecture, you will be able to:

• Discuss the immunological effects of endocannabinoids
• Explain how the effects of cannabis differ from endocannabinoids
• Predict cytokine profiles stimulated by cannabis
• List immunological diseases for which cannabis would be recommended and potential effects

Format: On-Demand, Self-Paced Course. Estimated Effort: 2 hours to complete (video lecture presentation lesson, handout review, quiz).

The Healthy Home Project with Environmental Toxicity Specialist Tonya Harris, MSHN

Whether your clients are still experiencing symptoms or are having trouble losing weight and diet alone isn’t working, there may be a missing piece to the puzzle: environmental toxins. While there are many we can’t control outside the home, there are many inside the home that we can.

This course is designed to help the practitioner teach their client how to discover which common toxins in their home could be affecting their health by addressing three main areas of the home: the kitchen (food & beverages), the bathroom (personal care products & cosmetics), and the laundry room (laundry and cleaning products).

After completing this course, practitioners will be able to prioritize which toxins to avoid for their clients’ own unique needs, how to identify (hidden and not-so-hidden) toxins on ingredient labels, and will be able to give clients options for safer products to buy.
