Course Description

Optimal brain function depends on efficient energy production and metabolic balance. In this session, David Clark explores the most important metabolic priorities in supporting neurological health. Participants will examine how energy production, mitochondrial function, and nutrient availability influence brain performance. The lecture reviews how metabolic dysfunction can impact neural processes and contribute to neurological challenges. By understanding these foundational principles, clinicians can develop strategies aimed at optimizing metabolism and supporting overall brain function. This session highlights the critical role of metabolic health in clinical neuroscience and patient care.

What you’ll learn:

  • Understand key metabolic processes that support brain function.
  • Recognize the role of mitochondria in neural energy production.
  • Identify how nutrients influence brain metabolism.
  • Explore effects of metabolic dysfunction on neurological health.
  • Apply metabolic strategies in clinical practice.
