Interactive Webinar 19th January 2016, 18.30-19.30
About the host
Natalie Lamb NT Dip CNM, mBANT, BA Hons, GAPS
After the success of Natalie webinar on 'An introduction to gut flora and fermented foods' Natalie's next webinar will concentrate on infants.
At birth the infant’s gut flora is obtained from the mother and environment around them. Particularly in early life, the composition of the gut flora profoundly influences the development of the immune system and the gut mucosal lining. With the incidence of allergic diseases, gastrointestinal disorders and behavioural issues increasing, are probiotics the answer?
