Nutritional Supplementation for Migraine Headaches and Osteoarthritis

Date: TBA

Description: Having to turn learning into practice is challenging. New studies appear every day, and sometimes conflict with older research. Nutritional products are poorly regulated, leading to vague label claims and sometimes questionable quality and safety. Seminar attendees will learn how to quickly find information electronically and assess it to guide your clinical decisions and product selection. We will apply an evidence-based, small-group, hands-on approach to two common conditions that appear daily in clinical practice: osteoarthritis, and migraine.
Additional Information: 
- Student discounts provided.
- Licensed DCs who have graduated within the last two years are eligible to attend at the discounted student pricing.
- This seminar provides eight hours of continuing education. 
- Food and drink provided.
