<h5>Presented by Practitioners, for Practitioners</h5>
<h5>We invite you to join us for our pinnacle educational event, the 2026 Integria Practitioner Symposium</h5>
 
The landscape of metabolic medicine is experiencing a revolutionary shift that extends far beyond weight loss. This Symposium takes a uniquely holistic perspective on the emerging research into GLP-1, GIP, and related incretin pathways, exploring their systemic benefits far beyond weight management, along with emerging treatment targets and the evolving role of Natural Medicine in this new therapeutic frontier.&nbsp;
While GLP-1 receptor agonists entered clinical practice primarily for diabetes and obesity management, emerging research reveals a fascinating tapestry of therapeutic effects that touch nearly every system in the human body. From cardiovascular protection to neuroprotection, inflammatory modulation and respiratory health improvements, these incretin pathways are rewriting our understanding of metabolic-systemic connectivity. Importantly, these wide-ranging physiological effects stem not just from pharmaceutical interventions, but from the pathways themselves—opening exciting possibilities for herbal and nutritional medicine to influence these same mechanisms for better health outcomes.&nbsp;
For natural healthcare practitioners, this represents both an unprecedented opportunity and a critical knowledge gap. As well as supporting patients already on medications, practitioners are uniquely positioned to play a front-line role in harnessing these pathways through natural interventions. As the science rapidly expands beyond current pharmaceutical approaches, understanding how to influence GLP-1, GIP, and related pathways through herbal and nutritional medicine becomes essential for comprehensive metabolic care.&nbsp;
This Symposium addresses the practical challenges and opportunities for integrative care, examining how Natural Healthcare Practitioners can actively engage with these powerful metabolic pathways to deliver transformative health outcomes for their patients.&nbsp;
Early Bird pricing ends 30 April 2026
VIP Live Stream available until 30 June 2026. Available for Australian residents only.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
 
<h3>Speakers&nbsp;</h3>
<h5>Dr. Roger McIntyre: Pioneering the Brain-Body Connection in Mental Health&nbsp;</h5>
Join internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. Roger McIntyre, Professor of Psychiatry and Pharmacology at the University of Toronto and Head of the Mood Disorders Psychopharmacology Unit at University Health Network, as he presents groundbreaking insights into how metabolic health transforms brain function. At Symposium Dr. McIntyre will explore his revolutionary concept that "obesity metastasizes to the brain."&nbsp;
Discover the fascinating history of GLP-1 agonists—from Gila monster venom to breakthrough psychiatric therapeutics—and learn how GLP-1 activation in the brain modulates reward systems and cognitive function. Dr. McIntyre will reveal how these pathways reduce neuroinflammation, enhance neuroplasticity, and offer unprecedented promise for treating mood disorders, preventing neurodegeneration, and addressing systemic conditions that impact brain health.&nbsp;
Dr McIntyre’s presentations offer a unique glimpse into the future of psychiatry, where metabolic interventions may fundamentally change how we prevent and treat mental illness across the lifespan.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h5>Dr Jacqueline Jacques: Bridging Natural Products and Obesity Care in the GLP-1 Era&nbsp;</h5>
Dr Jacqueline Jacques, a Naturopathic Doctor and seasoned leader in the natural health industry, brings over two decades of experience spanning clinical nutrition, product innovation, and integrative medicine. As a Fellow of The Obesity Society, she is renowned for her ability to translate complex science into actionable health strategies.&nbsp;
At Symposium, Dr Jacques will explore the intersection of natural ingredients and the rapidly evolving obesity treatment landscape—particularly the implications of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Drawing on her expertise in metabolic health and functional nutrition, she will unpack the myths and realities of “natural GLP-1” claims, discuss evidence-based roles for nutritional support, and highlight how Natural Healthcare Practitioners can meet the needs of this expanding population. Dr Jacques advocates for whole-person, patient-centred care, and combating stigma around obesity and its treatment. Her session will provide essential insights for clinicians now and into the future in this important space.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h5>Professor David Scott – Exploring Incretin Pathways and Muscle Health&nbsp;</h5>
Professor David Scott is a leading exercise scientist and NHMRC Emerging Leadership Fellow at Deakin University’s Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition (IPAN).

At Symposium, Dr Scott will address a crucial emerging concern: the impact of GLP1 receptor agonists on muscle mass and sarcopenia. He will present the latest research showing that rapid weight loss via GLP1agonists can include significant lean mass loss in high-risk populations, and how nutritional support and exercise can mitigate this risk. He will also explore GLP1’s potential benefits on muscle metabolism - improving microvascular function, glucose uptake, mitochondrial health - balanced against observed declines in lean tissue&nbsp;&nbsp;
Prof Scott’s session will reveal how advancements in incretin physiology intersects with integrative, muscle-preserving healthcare—essential learning for Natural Health professionals in this therapeutic era.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h5>Professor Damien Keating: The Gut–Microbiome-Brain&nbsp;Axis and Endogenous GLP-1 Activation&nbsp;</h5>
Professor Damien Keating will explore one of the most exciting frontiers in metabolic medicine: the gut–microbiome axis and its profound influence on appetite regulation, glucose metabolism, and weight control.&nbsp;
Drawing on his pioneering research, Prof Keating will unpack the mechanisms that drive endogenous GLP-1 secretion and examine how the gut microbiome shapes host glucose metabolism. He will also illuminate the critical role of gut–brain communication&nbsp;-&nbsp;particularly via vagal pathways&nbsp;- in regulating energy balance and metabolic health.&nbsp;
In the context of the rapidly evolving incretin landscape, this session will provide practitioners with a deeper understanding of how microbial, neural, and hormonal pathways intersect to influence appetite and body weight. By exploring how these systems can be modulated, Prof Keating’s presentation offers important insights into emerging therapeutic strategies that extend beyond pharmacology and into the realm of targeted, mechanism-informed care.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h5>Diana Boot:&nbsp;understanding&nbsp;the incretin&nbsp;therapeutic&nbsp;landscape and&nbsp;the co-prescription opportunity&nbsp;&nbsp;</h5>
Diana is a compounding pharmacist and naturopath,&nbsp;who has gained early&nbsp;expertise&nbsp;in managing patients&nbsp;prescribed GLP-1 RAs and similar medication.&nbsp;Diana is the founder of a busy&nbsp;and successful&nbsp;bespoke dispensary service, Natural Script, which&nbsp;empowers&nbsp;practitioners to create personalised medicines tailored to the specific needs of their patients.&nbsp;At&nbsp;Symposium Diana will describe the current incretin&nbsp;prescription&nbsp;landscape in Australia and provide a&nbsp;clear and solid framework of how natural healthcare practitioners can&nbsp;work alongside these medications.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h5>Glenn Mackintosh:&nbsp;Navigating the Mind/Body Transformation in the Incretin Era&nbsp;</h5>

<h3>Session &amp; Dates</h3>
Session 1: Beyond Neurotransmitters - Nutritional Strategies for Brain Function, Mood &amp; Cognitive Resilience
Tuesday 28 April &nbsp;| &nbsp;&nbsp;Emma Van Den Driest
 
Mental and cognitive health can no longer be reduced to neurotransmitter depletion models. Advances in neuroscience reveal that brain function is shaped by neural circuitry, metabolic health, stress physiology and neuroimmune signalling.
This masterclass presents a systems-based framework for nutritional support of emotional and cognitive health. We will explore how nutrients and metabolites influence brain energetics, stress responsivity, inhibitory–excitatory balance and neuroplasticity, rather than simply increasing neurotransmitter precursors.
Designed for clinicians managing anxiety, low mood, burnout, cognitive fatigue and stress-related presentations, this session clarifies how and when to use foundational nutrients, conditionally essential compounds and selected nootropic agents to support brain resilience and function.
 
Learning objectives
By the end of this session, practitioners will be able to:
<ul>
 <li>Move beyond neurotransmitter-centric prescribing models</li>
 <li>Understand how nutrition influences neural circuits and stress physiology</li>
 <li>Identify when cognitive and emotional symptoms reflect metabolic or neuroimmune strain</li>
 <li>Apply a structured nutritional framework to mood, anxiety and cognitive presentations</li>
 <li>Prescribe with greater confidence in complex or overlapping mental health cases</li>
</ul>
 
Session 2: Programming the Next Generation - Nutrition for Fertility, Preconception &amp; Pregnancy
Tuesday 26 May &nbsp;| &nbsp;Averil Bates
 
Nutrition in fertility and pregnancy is not only about meeting requirements—it is about biological programming. Emerging evidence in epigenetics, methylation biology and mitochondrial function shows that targeted nutritional strategies can influence reproductive outcomes and long-term offspring health.
This masterclass explores evidence-based nutrition across preconception, conception and pregnancy, with equal attention to maternal and paternal contributions. We will examine nutrient timing, conditional essentiality and the clinical implications of choline, iodine, vitamin D, calcium and mitochondrial cofactors in reproductive care.
The session equips practitioners with a confident, modern framework for supporting fertility, healthy pregnancy progression and optimal developmental outcomes.
 
Learning objectives
By the end of this session, practitioners will be able to:
<ul>
 <li>Apply current evidence to nutritional care in fertility and preconception</li>
 <li>Understand the role of epigenetics and methylation in early development</li>
 <li>Identify key nutrients that become conditionally essential during reproduction</li>
 <li>Support both maternal and paternal nutritional contributions to fertility</li>
 <li>Prescribe pregnancy nutrition with greater clinical precision and confidence</li>
</ul>
 
Session 3: Iron on a Knife Edge - Deficiency, Oxidative Stress &amp; the Clinical Art of Hormesis
Tuesday 30 June &nbsp;| &nbsp;Gina Wilson
 
Iron is essential for mitochondrial function, oxygen transport and vitality—yet it is also one of the most biologically volatile nutrients we prescribe. While iron deficiency remains common, particularly in women, elevated or poorly regulated iron can drive oxidative stress, inflammation and disease progression.
This masterclass reframes iron through the lens of redox biology and hormesis, moving beyond a simplistic “low ferritin = replace iron” paradigm. We will explore functional iron deficiency, the role of inflammation and hepcidin in iron dysregulation, and how ferritin behaves as both a storage protein and an acute phase reactant.
Clinicians will examine when iron repletion is necessary, when it may be counterproductive, and how antioxidant strategies (including vitamin C, NAC and alpha lipoic acid) can either support recovery or inadvertently blunt adaptive redox signalling. The session emphasises context-driven prescribing, helping practitioners avoid both under- and over-treatment.
 
Learning objectives
By the end of this session, practitioners will be able to:
<ul>
 <li>Differentiate absolute vs functional iron deficiency using ferritin, CRP and clinical context</li>
 <li>Understand the role of hepcidin and inflammation in impaired iron utilisation</li>
 <li>Identify clinical scenarios where iron supplementation may exacerbate oxidative stress</li>
 <li>Apply hormesis principles to decide when antioxidant support is beneficial versus disruptive</li>
 <li>Prescribe iron with greater precision, safety and therapeutic intent</li>
</ul>
 
Session 4: Membrane Matters - Omega-3s, Lipid Mediators &amp; the Resolution of Inflammation
Tuesday 28 July &nbsp;| &nbsp;Sam Cartwright
 
Cell membranes are dynamic signalling platforms that shape inflammation, vascular function and neurological health. At the core of this system are membrane lipids—particularly omega-3 fatty acids and phospholipids—which influence both the initiation and resolution of inflammatory responses.
This masterclass begins with the foundational role of traditional omega-3 fatty acids, exploring how EPA and DHA support cardiovascular health, brain structure, endothelial function and inflammatory tone through membrane integration and direct biochemical effects—independent of their conversion to downstream mediators.
Building on this foundation, the session then examines the emerging biology of specialised pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), lipid-derived signals that actively terminate inflammation and promote tissue repair. We will explore why resolution often fails in chronic disease, and why some patients do not respond adequately to omega-3 supplementation alone.
The role of phospholipid signalling is further explored through palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), highlighting its function as an endogenous regulator of neuroimmune and inflammatory balance.
Clinicians will leave with a clear framework for combining lipid strategies rationally in pain, cardiovascular disease, neuroinflammation and chronic inflammatory presentations.
 
Learning objectives
By the end of this session, practitioners will be able to:
<ul>
 <li>Explain the structural and functional roles of EPA and DHA in cell membranes</li>
 <li>Identify cardiovascular and neurological benefits of omega-3s independent of SPM production</li>
 <li>Understand how and why SPM biosynthesis may be impaired in chronic disease</li>
 <li>Distinguish clinical scenarios suited to omega-3 support, SPM intervention, or combined use</li>
 <li>Integrate phospholipid and lipid mediator strategies into chronic pain and inflammatory care</li>
</ul>
