Badgerland Wellness Conference 2024 - Presented by Kristi Morlan-Hughes, ND

The post-pandemic era has brought about a surge in patients facing immune dysfunction, exhaustion, brain fog, exercise intolerance, sleep challenges, and increased pain.

Many individuals with post-acute sequelae COVID experience debilitating symptoms such as pain, extreme fatigue, brain fog, and gut dysfunction. They struggle to find root-cause approaches to restore their energy and wellness. Recent studies state that long-haul syndrome is not self-resolving unless the underlying causes driving the tissue damage and severe inflammation are addressed.

In her workshop, Dr. Kristi delves into sub-phenotypes of PASC, exploring hypotheses related to viral persistence, mitochondrial dysfunction, immune dysregulation, organ injury, and microbiome challenges.

Cultivating immune resilience and providing a post-viral recovery program involves identifying unique antecedents and triggers while addressing root causes with natural medicine solutions, dietary modifications, and targeted therapeutics. Personalized care plans are essential to manage post-viral response effectively.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the five drivers of long-haul syndrome and post-acute sequelae COVID.
• Identify factors increasing susceptibility to post-viral syndromes.
• Explore direct and indirect pathophysiological complications of long-haul syndrome.
• Learn about sequencing care for patients with stealth infections, biotoxins, and viral challenges.
• Discover nutrition and botanical nutraceuticals for foundational immune resilience nutrition, preventing severe infections while addressing PASC root causes.
