About this webinar

Hormonal imbalances affect approximately 80% of women at some point in their lives, with many of these imbalances originating in the gut. This webinar will delve into the mechanisms through which Akkermansia muciniphila and other novel probiotic strains promote optimal health outcomes in women, specifically during the transition to menopause.

Join Fullscript hosts Dr. Holly Lucille, ND, RN, and Dr. Lara Zakaria, PharmD, CNS, IFMCP, along with Pendulum CEO Dr. Colleen Cutcliffe, PhD, as they explore the latest research, clinical case studies, and practical applications of beneficial bacteria for optimal female health.

Key takeaways

  • Recognize differences between healthy and unhealthy traits of the gut microbiome.
  • Discuss the bi-directional relationship between estrogen metabolism and the gut microbiome.
  • Discover which bacterial strains are critical in estrogen-related conditions, specifically related to metabolic health, gut permeability, and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production.
  • Learn how to address the gut microbiome in clinical practice to support your patients' metabolic and hormonal health long term.
