About this course

The most frequently mentioned symptom in clinical care is fatigue. In fact, the majority of people feel tired at least three days per week. Some people feel tired all day, every day; it's a human energy crisis.

The Fatigue Masterclass thoroughly examines the recognised root causes of fatigue. You will understand how fatigue arises, how to assess the fatigued patient and receive many, clear fatigue-resolving strategies. 

We currently have a “perfect storm” for a human energy crisis. Most people eat nutrient-depleted diets, sleep duration has dropped considerably, we have higher exposure to infectious agents, high exposure to mould, pollutants and other toxic agents and high exposure to stress. We can now add to this the Covid Pandemic with its challenges and post-viral effects. These are impacting  most of the people that you see in your practice and is reflected not only as fatigue, but also pain, cognitive dysfunction, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and myalgic encephalomyelitis.

He was first to show that mast cells are critical for inflammation, especially in the brain, and are involved in a number of inflammatory conditions that worsen by stress such as allergies, asthma, eczema, psoriasis, migraines, multiple sclerosis and most recently autism spectrum disorder. He has also shown that CRH, neurotensin and substance P, peptides secreted under stress, act together, and with the cytokine IL-33, to trigger mast cells and microglia to secrete inflammatory molecules. These processes are inhibited by the novel flavonoids, luteolin and tetramethoxyluteolin that he has helped formulate in unique dietary supplements and a skin lotion. He has published over 410 scientific papers (JBC, JACI, JPET, NEJM, Nature, PNAS, Science) and 3 textbooks with 30,501 citations (h-factor 86) and he is in the top 5% of authors most cited in pharmacological and immunological journals.
