Areas Covered The Basic Principles of Naturopathy The Early Days: Hydrotherapy as the Core Therapy Progress of Naturopathy in the United States The Halycon Years of Naturopathy in Britain The Suppression of Naturopathy and its Rebirth The Details of Hydrotherapy Techniques The Range of Today’s Naturopathic Techniques Published Research into Naturopathy and General Acceptance Today’s Activities at Health Spas Naturopathy in Relation to Scientific Medicine Naturopathy in Relation to Biochemistry: the Principles of “General Chronicity” Naturopathy as the Philosophical Base for other Therapies SECTION 2 PHILOSOPHY OF NATUROPATHIC NUTRITIONAL THERAPEUTICS In order to begin to understand Nutritional Therapeutics, we have to understand the philosophy that is at its very basis. One will be departing quite fundamentally from conventionality and as the truth about natural medicine and natural nutrition unfolds in this Course, the student will, in all probability, come to realise that holism is a higher form of knowledge; one that transcends the materialistic and the mechanistic and will lead you on the first steps of this most exciting of all journeys. Areas Covered The status of knowledge about diet in relation to health The pressure of conventional opinion The limitations of the conventional approach What goes in must affect health in the long run The body's resistance to deterioration Profound effects from treatment The life force in relation to scientific concepts The nature of toxins Starting to look at the route for recovery Acute conditions, inflammation and hyperactivity Routes by which toxins enter the body Routes of exit of toxins Movement of toxins within the body: toxic locations Iridology Knife edge between healing and non-healing The effects to be expected from toxins residing in tissues SECTION 3 SYNTHESIS OF NATUROPATHY & SCIENCE What is to be presented in this Section is pertinent to the whole question of the initiation of chronic diseases. If we look in the pathology texts and consult the sections on individual types of chronic disease, we usually find an explanation of the cause (aetiology) on a superficial level. However, when we begin to probe into the cause of the causes, we soon hit an impenetrable wall of “not knowing”. It is in this Section that we aim to open the door to this question and therefore give a route back from chronic disease. Areas covered Introduction: a specialized meaning of “Chronicity” The Nature of Toxic Damage – Non-Specific Cell Toxicity The Nature of Membranes Mechanisms of Protein Synthesis and their Vulnerability to Toxins Damage to Mitochondria and the Endoplasmic Reticulum Relationship of General Cellular Damage to Cancer The Nucleus, DNA and their Vulnerability to Toxins DNA Repair Mechanisms The Nature of Toxic Damage – Specific Cell Toxicity Cell Damage and the “General Chronicity” Theory SECTION 4 THE PRACTITIONER’S ROLE In this Section we wish to paint a picture that fairly fully describes this role. It is important to build a set of views about your future role that is fully compatible and interwoven with the naturopathic philosophy and data given in the previous Sections of the Course.  Areas covered Introduction to the Role of the practitioner The Wider Environment The Microcosm of the Consulting Room patient & treatment pimary components of the Practitioner’s role a working relationship & commitment to each patient physical examination communicating & recording the prescription providing nutritional products required for therapy communication with doctors spreading the word SECTION 5 UNDERSTANDING THE DEPTH OF DISEASE Here is where the clinical work begins. We begin by thinking about this one aspect – how sick is your patient? You need some idea as to how big the problem is that lies before you. Areas covered The Nature of Health and Disease and the Approach to Treatment Some of the Misconceptions Flexibility of Disease Definitions Arthritis as an Example Do You Need a Hospital Diagnosis When You Are Not Unwell? Homotoxicology and the Teachings of Reckeweg Reckeweg’s Six Levels of Deterioration Examples of Progressive Sequences of Medical Conditions The Miasmic Background: Important but Disputed territory The Three Basic Homeopathic Miasms The Tubercular Miasm The Carcinocin Miasm The Sub-divisions of the Tubercular Miasm Note on Iridology SECTION 6 THE CONCEPT OF ELIMINATORY PRESSURE & ITS MANAGEMENT Eliminatory pressure is the term we use to denote the combined effect of all the various naturopathic-type measures we apply to help the body biochemistry of a sick person to return to normal. According to the “Theory of General Chronicity”, the normality of the biochemistry of the body cells, and hence their degree of freedom from toxicity and damage, is our yardstick of general health and vitality. Areas covered The Nature of Eliminatory Pressure Differences of Response to Naturopathic Pressure The Interactions between Toxins and Toxic Damage Regulating Eliminative Pressure at Manageable Levels The Basics of Generating Eliminatory Pressure Fasting: Free Radicals and Antioxidants “Firing up” Eliminatory Pressure with Fruit The Stage I and Stage 2 Elimination Using Foods to Generate Controlled Levels of Eliminatory Pressure Using Supplements to Generate Controlled Levels of Eliminatory Pressure Contributions to Eliminatory Pressure from Herbs and Special Nutrients Levels of Eliminatory Pressure, Understanding and Managing Them The Effectiveness’, or Otherwise, of Eliminatory Reactions The Concept of the “Chronically Acute” The Approach to Overall Management of the Case SECTION 7 TAKING THE CASE HISTORY & UNDERSTANDING ORGANS AND ORGAN FUNCTIONS In this Section we concern ourselves with the actual technique for taking down the particulars of the case. Before we can carry out a full naturopathic diagnosis, we shall need to understand the principles of ‘Plotting the Course of Disease’. It is from this that we will gain a full appreciation of how the sick person came to be in their present condition and this will then lead us on to the question of what to do about it.  Areas covered The More Basic Facts The Aims and Objectives in Taking the Case The Organ States Assessing the Naturopathic State of Organs Hierarchy of Organs Organ-Specific Diagnosis Individually Important Organs and Systems Blood Sugar in Relation to Vitality: Hypoglycaemia The Adrenal Glands how should we recognise adrenal exhaustion clinically? The Liver The Kidneys The Immune System Location of Immune System Components. Functions of Immune System Components. Nutritional Therapy Interpretation of Immune System Signs The Skin SECTION 8 INTERPRETATION OF CASE HISTORY AND UNDERSTANDING INDIVIDUAL REACTIVITY In this Section, we would like you to consider the inevitability of the rules that apply to progression along the pathway to chronic disease, and to the possibility of return from any position that is well down that path. From understanding the case, you will be able to determine what the treatment should be. Areas Covered The Naturopathic Laws and Observational Skills The Progression of Disease More about the Acute and the Chronic The Nutritional Therapist’s View of Disease The Allopathic View of Disease More about “Charting the Naturopathic Ebb and Flow” The Multifactorial Diagnosis See What’s Moving, What’s Changing Assessing Individual Reactivity Let the Case Taking Stage Foreshadow the Interpretation just a Little Note on The Chinese Medicine Connections SECTION 9 THE TOOLS OF THE TRADE & USING DIETS AS TREATMENT Using the information presented to you in Part One of the course, you will be able to use those same dietary paragraphs and move towards a very flexible prescribing of individually designed diets. You will make up a diet for each patient that will embody a carefully thought out modulation of the elimination/suppression aspect of our approach to health.  Areas Covered What we have covered already Many people may seem not to need special diets Avoid becoming paranoid Choices in dietary design More about the food classes Facing realism in your range of non-therapeutic prescriptions Adaptation for vegetarians Elements of directional dietary prescribing The approach to actual therapeutic prescription SECTION 10 THE TOOLS OF THE TRADE & USING SUPPLEMENTS AS TREATMENT We provided advice in Part One of the Course on the use of supplements. We introduced the ratio between magnesium and calcium, the use of micro-minerals and the use of zinc and manganese to name but a few. Here we explain further the steps needed to apply these essential tools to ensure that your treatment advice is successful. Areas Covered The latest advice provided by the Introductory Nutritional Course supplementation Legal Restraint upon use of Supplements SECTION 11 THE TOOLS OF THE TRADE & USING HERBS AS TREATMENT In the course of our treatment we often need to deal with common herbs. This is to produce certain organ-specific or system-specific effects, not obtainable with other nutrients. The effect of this is not to make Herbalists of us, but to ensure that these remedies are very carefully selected for their compatibility with other nutrients.  Areas Covered Aloe vera Bromelain St john’s wort Gingko biloba Silymarin SECTION 12 ACTIONS OF GROUPS OF PHYTONUTRIENTS This Section begins to delve into what lies behind the known fact that fruit and vegetable consumption inhibits many diseases. What are the substances within them that are responsible for such an important protection of the human body? Each of the main groups is examined with the main purpose being to familiarize the Student with these substances and to offer scientific evidence that some of these really do protect against disease. Areas Covered The Position of Phytonutrients Among Other Factors What are Phytonutrients? The Place of Phytonutrients among Secondary Plant Metabolites The Different Groups of Beneficial Phytonutrients Evidence for anti-disease activity SECTION 13 SPECIAL SUPPLEMENTS & THE COMBINED PRESCRIPTION When we write about “special supplements”, we mean to refer to those substances that are used as nutritional supplements and which do not fit into any of the previous categories mentioned. Here we teach the Student that they may in fact include many substances from many groups, leading to a diversified classification that each has their own special effects, conferring unique advantages upon the taker of them. Areas Covered Special Supplements & combined prescription Conducting the Consultation SECTION 14 STEERING A COURSE THROUGH TREATMENT – FLEXIBILITY AND INSIGHT Having not specifically addressed the question of what happens after the initial consultation, it is here that we bring together all the information that has been presented to you in the pages of this Nutritional Therapeutics Course, therefore, making this Section a recapitulation of things we have covered already, but brought together in a cohesive treatment of the subject. Areas Covered Progressing the Case Things to do at the First Consultation to help towards the Second The Second Consultation the meaning of different outcomes Constipation and Diarrhoea as incidents in Treatment. Titration of Bowel Flora The Nutritional Therapy Intensive Cleanse Diet Enemas Supplements Juices Duration Supplement Sequences in Treatment From Calcium Formulations to Calcium-Free Formulations Other Progressions Allergies, Intolerances and Hypersensitivities SECTION 15 SNAGS, CLEANSES AND CASE HISTORIES TESTIMONIALS Here's what students have to say about the course Kate Woolger, pilates instructor UK I chose the Plaskett College as I wanted something which was flexible and could be done in my own time. The content of the course really appealed. The study experience has been enjoyable - sometimes hard if a subject wasn’t so interesting. In regards to changes I have already implemented, I’m more thoughtful of thinking things through from the inception rather than just looking at the problem"

Duration 4 Days 24 CPD hours This course is intended for This course assumes the student has successfully taken and passed the NCSF Foundation 2.0 course based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework version 1.1, release April 2018. Following the course introduction, the course provides an introduction to the intersection between digital transformation and cybersecurity, which is followed by an overview of the threat landscape. Following an approach to the implementation of cybersecurity controls, the course delves into an organizational approach to cybersecurity that starts governance, management, and a supportive culture,Finally, the course provides additional guidance for the cybersecurity practitioner to determine the current state, the desired state, and a plan to close the gap - and to do this over and over again to inculcate it into organizational DNA. Overview This course looks at the impact of digital transformation on cybersecurity risks, an understanding of the threat landscape, and an approach to the application of cybersecurity controls. It provides guidance for students on the best approach to design and build a comprehensive cybersecurity program. Executives are keenly aware of the risks but have limited knowledge on the best way to mitigate these risks. This course also enables our executives to answer the critical question - Are we secure? The class includes lectures, informative supplemental reference materials, quizzes, exercises, and formal examination. The exercises are a critical aspect of the course; do not skip them. Outcomes and benefits from this class is a practical approach that students can use to build and maintain comprehensive cybersecurity and cyber-risk management programs. This course is targeted at IT and Cybersecurity professionals looking to become certified on how to operationalize the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NCSP) across an enterprise and its supply chain. Digital Transformation Explores what the Practitioner needs to know about the relationship between digital transformation and cybersecurity Explain how to determine the impact of cybersecurity on DX. Explain the relationships between culture and digital transformation from the perspective of a practitioner. Explain the delivery of value to stakeholders in a DX & cybersecurity environment. Illustrate the interdependent relationship between cybersecurity and DX. Threat Landscape The Practitioner needs to understand what threat actors do and their capabilities. Compare the evolving attack type impact to the threat environment. Apply knowledge about the threat landscape to maintain a readiness to respond. Develop a risk profile based on business impact analysis Establish the relationship between awareness and training in the continual improvement of cybersecurity posture. Develop and treat training & awareness as a critical aspect of deterrence Use knowledge about the threat landscape as a predicate to the adoption and adaptation of your cybersecurity posture.
