The Important Role of Myelin:

Myelin is damaged in a wide variety of conditions, including autoimmune conditions, infection, trauma, neurodegeneration (as in Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s), and simply aging. The result of this damage can lead to changes in mood and memory, sensory disturbance, pain, weakness, incoordination, heat intolerance, balance problems, dizziness, and recurrent vomiting that can be constant or intermittent.

Billions of dollars are being spent on developing drugs that improve the body’s ability to repair damaged myelin, and currently, there are several drugs that have been shown to improve myelin repair in animal models.

To understand the important role myelin plays in our health and how we can create an optimal environment that promotes healthy myelin and reduces the risk of disease, I have created this 12-part series. In it, you’ll learn what myelin is, how it’s made, what damages it, and how it can be repaired, and there will be time for questions.

After completing this course, attendees will have a more complete understanding of the biology of myelin, how drugs come to market, which remyelination drugs have early promising data, which natural products have early promising data, and why drugs and products that work in animal models typically fail in human trials.

In addition, you will gain a greater understanding of the factors that create a neurotoxic environment that increases the severity of myelin damage as well as the behaviors that promote myelin health and repair.

—Plus, I am re-lauching my popular Restoring Function Workshop along with this series.

What is covered in the Workshop:

Remyelination Workshop:

PART 1: How Myelin Is Made

In part 1, we’ll review the biology of how myelin is made in the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves and how the process of myelin manufacturing works in the central and peripheral nervous systems.

PART 2: The Exciting New Myelination Drugs

In part 2, we’ll review the process of drug development and what it takes to bring a new drug to market. There are several exciting new drugs in the drug development pipeline that promote more effective repair of myelin. We’ll discuss the mechanisms by which these drugs improve myelin repair, along with how close each drug is to being approved for use by the US Food and Drug Administration.

PART 3: Natural Products and Remyelination

In part 3, we’ll discuss remyelination and the natural products that have been shown to have favorable preliminary results in animal models of myelin damage and repair. We will look at the biochemical processes and receptors these natural products affect, and discuss how the remyelination drugs being developed affect these same processes and receptors.

PART 4: How microglia, astrocytes, and microenvironment affect myelination and why new drugs may not help humans

In part 4, we’ll look at how microglia, astrocytes, and microenvironment affect myelination. We’ll also understand how they influence the success or failure of drug remyelination studies in mice and clinical trials in humans. We’ll review the biology of microglia and how they can be activated and become neurotoxic as well as the role of microglia biology in the success or failure of natural products and remyelination drugs in the development pipeline. And we’ll learn why drugs that might work very well in mice and rats are likely to have only a small effect in humans–or be harmful–and understand the factors behind the failure of certain drugs.

PART 5: Calming your microglia

In part 5, we’ll look at the biology of diet and how it can influence microglia, making them neurotoxic or neuroprotective. We’ll discuss specific foods and diet components that have positive and negative effects on microglia and their expression.

PART 6: The 3 M’s: Microbiome, Mitochondria, and Microenvironment

In part 6, we’ll look at the microbiome and mitochondria and how their health can influence the microglia, making them more neuroprotective or more neurotoxic. We’ll review specific strategies to improve the health of the microbiome and mitochondria as well as specific health behaviors and supplements that create a more favorable microenvironment for remyelination.

Remyelination Advanced Workshop:

PART 7: Understand the Role of Your Life and Health Timeline in Your Current Health Issues.

In part 7, we will discuss the role that the events of our lives can have on the health issues that lead to damaged myelin. You will be encouraged to complete a review of your life events and health timeline and map exposures to toxins, severe psychological stress, severe physical stress, isolation, loneliness, low levels of physical activity, and nutrition quality. We will discuss symptoms that suggest issues with gut health, microbiome, mitochondria, toxin load, and hormone problems.

PART 8: Improving Gut Health

In part 8, we will look at the role of the gut in myelin repair. We need to have proper digestion and assimilation to absorb the nutrients that are the building blocks for making and repairing myelin. This module will review the factors that may interfere with digestion, what may cause increased intestinal permeability, also known as leaky gut, and the strategies to help heal a leaky gut.

PART 9: Growing Your Internal Motivation to Improve Your Health Behaviors

In part 9 we will learn how to create the motivation to support adoption of new, desired health behaviors and how to stop engaging in undesirable, disease-promoting behaviors. We will review the Wahls Behavior Change™ Model, a 15-step process for helping people more successfully adopt and sustain improved diet choices and better health behaviors.

PART 10: How to Utilize a Health Coach to Increase Your Success with Adopting and Sustaining Health Behavior Change

In part 10, we will discuss how a health coach supports patients in their healing journeys.  Sports teams and businesses use coaches to improve the performance of individuals and teams. Now, many functional and integrative trained physicians are using health coaches to help their patients make specific, measurable, action-oriented, relevant and realistic, and timebound goals to improve their health behaviors.

PART 11: How to Utilize Validated Questionnaires and Biomarkers to Assess Your Cellular Function and Support Your Remyelination and Wellness Plan

In part 11, we will review how to use questionnaires to assess your current burden of symptoms and level of function to obtain a numeric score, allowing you to follow your symptom burden and function over time. We will also discuss blood tests that assess metabolic and cardiovascular health and the ranges for these blood tests that indicate you are at higher or lower risk for myelin damage.

PART 12: How to Conduct a Variety of Functional Tests on Yourself with the Help of Your Family

In part 12, we will review tests that you can do with help from another adult to assess your thinking, hand coordination, strength, balance, and endurance. These tests have been used by physical therapists, occupational therapists, and physicians to assess patients’ risk of falling and ability to live alone. These tests are a terrific tool for assessing neurological function and knowing if things are stable, worsening, or improving.

Restoring Function Workshop:

PART 1: Restoring The Workplace: How to Request Accommodations or Apply for Disability

MS is usually diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 45 — right when your career is getting off the ground or in full swing. But MS can make it difficult to hold down most jobs between the fatigue, brain fog, and physical weakness. And an estimated 70% of MS patients leave their job within 10 years of a diagnosis. In this workshop, we’ll review the process for requesting workplace accommodations from your employer. Plus, you’ll learn how to apply for disability and how to file an appeal in case of a denial.

PART 2: Restoring Everyday Life: How Occupational Therapy Can Help

In this section, we’ll talk about occupational therapy (OT) and its role in helping patients restore their ability to perform everyday activities, both at work and at home. You’ll learn the types of assessments and interventions that occupational therapists use to remain engaged in work, home, and community life, including OT specialties that address low vision, poor hand function, driving and community mobility, assistive technology, feeding, environmental accommodations, balance, and mobility. We’ll also cover hand function and rehabilitation and how problems with talking and swallowing are evaluated and treated. You’ll also learn the roles of talk therapies, art therapy, music, and recreational therapy as clinically-validated tools for improving quality of life.

PART 3: Restoring Movement: How Physical Therapy Can Keep You Moving

Chronic pain may be related to wear and tear of joints and tendons or abnormal movement patterns. In this section, we’ll review the type of assessments and interventions that physical therapists (PT) use to help patients address walking problems, back pain, and other muscle and joint pain problems. We’ll discuss the role of muscles as an endocrine organ and the problem of learned disuse of our muscles and how to reverse it. We’ll also cover the latest technologies to promote strength, balance, and bone density. You’ll learn about high-intensity interval training, intermittent hypoxia training, and electrical therapy devices like microcurrent, frequency-specific microcurrent, and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation.

PART 4: Restoring Muscle Function: How Electrical Stimulation Works

Electrical stimulation of muscles was first used by athletes to grow larger, stronger muscles. Today, it’s transforming the lives of those with acute spinal cord injuries and those with muscle weakness due to MS and other neuroimmune conditions. In this session, we’ll review various electrical therapy devices used in rehabilitation, including functional electrical stimulation (FES) and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). We’ll review the research, available devices, and programs Dr. Wahls has used in clinical trials. We’ll also talk about the metabolic, hormonal, and training benefits of using either FES or NMES, how to access these devices, the professionals who use them, and examples of others who have restored their walking function.

PART 5: Restoring The Nervous System: The Latest Technologies

In this session, we’ll review non-invasive devices that use electrical or magnetic current to stimulate the brain. We’ll go over the research on the impact these devices have on fatigue, anxiety, depression, and insomnia. You’ll also learn about the impact of light on circadian rhythm, sleep quality, and mitochondrial function, and the role of red light, near-infrared light, and low-level laser treatments in rehabilitation. Finally, you’ll leave with research on light therapies, how to access light and light therapy devices, and the science of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

PART 6: Restoring Workplace Function: Addressing the Most Common Drivers of Job Loss

The most common disabilities that lead to job loss include fatigue, cognitive decline, anxiety, and depression. Fortunately, these are the disabilities that patients are often able to remarkably improve. In this session you’ll get the strategies Dr. Wahls uses with her patients to help reduce disabilities and begin restoring function. With the right interventions, meaningful improvement can be observed within 3 months, including reductions in fatigue, brain fog, memory loss, anxiety, depression, poor sleep, pain, and spasticity.

PART 7: Restoring The Body: Addressing Bladder, Bowel, and Sexual Issues

Nearly 80% of people with MS and neuroimmune issues will develop problems with bladder and bowel control and sexual function. Unfortunately, physicians rarely ask about bladder and bowel issues and ask even less about sex. In this session will discuss the specific therapies and tools available to help with these issues. We’ll also talk about managing constipation, reducing bowel accidents, and improving bladder control. We’ll then examine why sexual problems develop, how to evaluate the potential causes of sexual issues, and what can be done to restore sexual function.

We’ll explore in detail what you can do to improve the environment for myelin repair, including specific recommendations for health behaviors, foods, and supplements that support remyelination.

You will be empowered with knowledge, inspiration, and awareness of specific actions they can take to stop demyelination processes and improve their body’s ability to repair myelin.

Who will benefit from this workshop?

This workshop is designed for people with a neuroimmune or autoimmune process affecting their brain, spinal cord, or nerves. Brain, spinal cord, and peripheral autoimmune disorders include, but are not limited to, optic neuritis, neuromyelitis optica, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis, neuro-sarcoidosis, Neuro-Behcet’s, Hashimoto’s, vasculitis, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus, Sjogren’s syndrome, and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy.

This workshop is also for people who have had damage to their myelin through traumatic brain injury or post-brain/spinal cord infections, such as chronic Lyme disease or other tick-borne infections. The course will also be useful for anyone who wants more strategies for healthy aging, because damage to myelin accumulates and the ability to repair that damage declines as we age

 

This workshop will increase your confidence in approaching your health challenges related to damaged myelin, whether that’s from rounds of cancer chemotherapy, post-infection damage, traumatic brain injury, or an autoimmune disorder.

My Promise To You

I promise you, that if you commit to your health, join me as your guide, YOU WILL see improved outcomes, learn exactly how your body responds, and regain control over how you feel everyday—just like how I did and how thousands of other Wahls Warriors™ already have.

Set yourself up for success:

A guided autoimmune intervention is the first place to begin your journey to greater health. This course will save you time and money in the long run. Here’s how:

Scenario #1: Only follow conventional medicine

The cost for autoimmune care is $100 billion/year in the United States, with many drugs costing between $50,000 and $100,000 per year for the duration of the patient’s life.

In addition, these drugs often come with debilitating known side effects including damage to liver, heart or kidneys, infection, leukemia or lymphoma, just to name a few. Despite the financial burden and serious health risks of these drugs, patients and families often are more afraid of worsening disability and desperately take these medications.

When patients begin a diet and lifestyle intervention after starting a disease-modifying drug, it is often harder for the patient to ever be free from having to take drugs without facing severe worsening of their autoimmune disease.

The diet and lifestyle interventions covered in this course are designed to complement to your current disease-modifying therapy and will potentially make your current treatment plan more effective.

Scenario #2: Hire a functional medicine provider

Functional medicine is often cash-based and not covered by insurance. Implementing the Autoimmune Intervention Mastery course before you start working with a functional medicine practitioner will save you time and money.

This proven behavior change model will jumpstart your new approach to managing your health. Your time spent with your functional or integrative medicine doctor can be used more efficiently by starting these health behavior changes ahead of time.

Imagine being able to begin your health transformation right now by learning about functional medicine and following a proven pathway to creating new health behaviors.

After taking the Autoimmune Intervention Mastery Course, your practitioner will be able to focus on supporting you at a deeper level with their expertise.
