Metabolic Diseases: The Hidden Hand of Toxicity

Metabolic diseases (obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease) are rapidly becoming one of the most significant burdens of disease, not only in Australia, but the Western world. 

In fact, the incidence of these diseases has increased almost 10-fold in the last 5 decades. A number of factors have been wrongfully implicated in the development and progression of metabolic disease in recent times including saturated fat, cholesterol and sugar. Consequently, our focus on these relatively benign factors has overshadowed the potentially true cause, toxicity.

This webinar aims to:

1. Dispel the common misconceptions that saturated fat, cholesterol and sugar are the cause of metabolic disease
2. Review the current scientific evidence implicating toxins such as persistent organic pollutants in the pathogenesis of metabolic disease
3. Highlight the major sources of environmental and dietary toxin exposure
4. Provide clinicians with practical suggestions around how to reduce their client’s exposure to toxins and explore various detoxification strategies
