Nutritional Immunology is using nutrients and botanical immunomodulators to support immune function for preventing infections, cancer, and autoimmunity.

Learning Objectives:

• Review the extracellular and intracellular signaling networks involved in activation of innate and acquired immune cells
• Examine the molecular mechanisms by which nutritional deficiencies and/or malnutrition-related overconsumption can cause immune dysfunction
• Explore the potential role of diet, nutrients, and botanicals in restoring healthy immune function
