Welcome & Opening Remarks
“Menopause & Post-Menopause: Beyond Hormones”
Farra Swan, ND
As our population of “Baby Boomers” ages, there has been much discussion and
information about hormonal changes in peri- & post-menopausal women.
This presentation will address the issues that impact this time of transformative
change for women & will ask questions beyond hormones about what is really
important for us as we age: in our bodies, in our relationships, in our families, and
in our society.
9:15 am—9:30 am
Break
9:30 am—11:00 am “Simplified T3 Protocol for Reversing Hypometabolic
Symptoms when Thyroid Tests are Normal”
Denis Wilson, MD, Sponsored by Restorative Formulations
Recent research confirms that a great deal of thyroid hormone reculation occurs
intra-cellularly, beyond the reach of thyroid blood tests. Dr. Wilson will explain how
T3, botanicals, and nutrition have advantages over T4, expecially when thyroid
blood tests are normal. He will cover a simplified T3 protocol and patient handout.
11:00 am—11:30 am
Break
11:30 am—1:00 pm “How Toxicants Disrupt the Intricate Dance of Reproductive Hormones”
Bonnie Nedrow, ND
Environmental toxicants negatively impact reproduction in two basic ways, through
endocrine disruption and through oxidative stress. These insults decrease fertility,
complicate pregnancy, and damage newborns. In addition, in-utero toxicant
exposure can initiate disease processes which will manifest years to decades
following birth.
1:00 pm—2:30 pm
Lunch and Support our Exhibitors
2:30 pm—4:00 pm
“Preconception Optimization Program” and
“Ethics of Preconception Detoxification”
Bonnie Nedrow, ND
Understand the advantage of addressing chemical body burden in parents prior to
conception. What are the ethical dilemmas of offing detoxification for clients who
are planning to become pregnant? Such programs are becoming more prevalent in
naturopathic care and are a natural extension of preventive medicine.
4:00 pm—4:30 pm
4:30 pm—5:30 pm
Break
“Integrative Approaches to Infertility”
Jaclyn Chasse, ND, Sponsored by Emerson Ecologics
With rising infertility rates, there exists a strong desire for integrative protocols
that maximize the chance of conception and a healthy offspring. This evidencebased presentation will present common barriers to conception and naturopathic
protocols to overcome these barriers as well as provide cases where an
integrative approach has proven successful.

conditions and how to provide effective prevention and treatment beyond the
basics (which are often misunderstood anyway).
