GI Masterclass: Advanced Perspectives in Gastrointestinal Health - From H. pylori to Leaky Gut Phenotypes
In-person event | London

The gastrointestinal system is central to immune balance, metabolic regulation, and overall vitality - yet disruptions often go undetected until systemic symptoms appear. This session dives into Helicobacter pylori infection dynamics and eradication strategies within an integrative framework, alongside a detailed examination of “leaky gut” subtypes including immune-mediated, microbiome-associated, and metabolic permeability patterns.


Participants will gain clinical insights into:

- Mechanistic models of mucosal barrier breakdown and repair
- Distinguishing functional ‘leaky gut’ subtypes and how to approach them
- Interpretation of advanced stool testing in analysis of GI health
- Evidence-informed treatment solutions for strengthening and balancing microbial populations and enhancing GI function.
