About this Event

Join Dr. Laura Robin for one class or the whole series. Having practiced medicine for more than 35 years, Dr. Laura is helping to change the paradigm of health by making practical knowledge much more accessible. Seeing the world through a “Root-Cause” lens and Body Systems approach helps us all to optimize health and slow, stop or prevent long-term health issues. Join her for an exploration into what we know so far about living healthier and longer from a Functional, or Root-Cause perspective.


Sessions Weekly on Wednesdays 5:30-7:00.

Bring your questions. Talk: 45 min. Q&A 45 min.



Starting November 5 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
  1. Defining Functional Medicine and Longevity Medicine: What is it? What is possible? What is real? What is evidence-based? What is available on a budget?
  2. Diving into Functional Medicine: Looking at our bodies from a Systems approach. Starting with the big picture and drilling down to the molecular level. What causes chronic illness? What prevents it?
  3. Digging into what we know about how to live longer and healthier. Things you can do starting today. Taking what we know and putting it into practice. Can longevity happen on a budget?
  4. All things Hormones. Let’s talk about your thyroid, your adrenals, female and male hormones, cyclical issues, menopause, and ‘manopause’.
  5. The Gut, Immune, Brain Connection. Why autoimmune, inflammatory and neurodegenerative issues are epidemic and how to begin addressing them.
  6. Why blood sugar matters. Diabetes, prediabetes, and pre-pre-diabetes. Why knowing your risk could add years to your life. Why drugs alone are not nearly the best answer. Most people have NO IDEA.
  7. Cognitive Function and Neurodegenerative Issues: Can Alzheimer's and Dementia be turned around? Parkinsons? MS? Let’s talk about the facts.
  8. Putting it all together. Functional and Longevity Medicine. Reviewing key pearls. Where to go from here?
