Optimizing the HPA Axis

Presentation video from our February 28, 2020 meeting featuring GUEST SPEAKER: Val Kowal of Synthera Therapeutics. This session is the last of a three-part series about the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) Axis. This session explains how & why it is so important to optimize HPA Axis--especially after sustaining a brain injury.
Following our theme topic for this meeting year on Chronic Stress and Adrenal Fatigue, this presentation illustrates the complexity of the adrenal system and how it communicates / links within the HPA Axis.
