FREE WEBINAR With Jo Gabryn | Tuesday, 28th April 2026, 7:00 – 8:30 pm AEST

Designs for Health Australia is proud to present the Practitioner Clinical Education Series, dedicated
to supporting natural health professionals in gaining expertise, clinical experience, and delivering
quality patient outcomes.

The Growing Cognitive Health Challenge

Cognitive health is rapidly emerging as a central concern across the lifespan. Your patients are presenting with brain fog, reduced focus, memory concerns, mental fatigue, sleep disruption, and mood changes — often in complex, overlapping patterns that resist straightforward treatment.

Beyond Surface-Level Symptom Management

These presentations are rarely simple consequences of a busy lifestyle. They often point to deeper physiological drivers – impaired mitochondrial energy production, chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, and neuroinflammation – that demand a more targeted clinical approach.

Emerging research highlights the critical importance of brain bioenergetics, particularly mitochondrial ATP production and NAD⁺ metabolism, in maintaining sustained cognitive performance and neural resilience. Layered onto this, neurotransmitter imbalances and hormonal transitions such as menopause and andropause can profoundly disrupt brain metabolism and mood.

A Clinical Framework You Can Apply Immediately

In this webinar, renowned brain optimisation specialist Jo Grabyn explores the evidence-based nutraceutical strategies required to address these core systemic dysfunctions. You’ll walk away with practical tools and a layered clinical framework to confidently prescribe targeted, highly standardised ingredients — restoring cognitive vitality for your patients and clinical confidence in your practice.

Evidence-Based Nutraceutical Strategies for Your Practice

By the end of this webinar, you’ll be able to:

  • Explain how mitochondrial ATP production and NAD metabolism directly influence cognitive⁺ energy, mental clarity, and long-term brain resilience.
  • Identify key physiological drivers of cognitive dysfunction, including oxidative stress, neurotransmitter imbalances, chronic stress, and sleep disruption.
  • Evaluate the mechanisms, clinical applications, and therapeutic dosing of advanced cognitive support ingredients such as creatine monohydrate, magnesium L-threonate, nicotinamide riboside, L-theanine, and saffron extract.
  • Differentiate how hormonal transitions, specifically menopause-related changes, influence brain metabolism, neurotransmitter balance, mood, and sleep.
  • Design a personalised, layered clinical strategy that holistically supports brain energy, cognitive performance, stress resilience, and emotional wellbeing.
  • Critically assess nutraceutical quality by evaluating ingredient standardisation, bioavailability, and clinically relevant dosing to ensure robust, evidence-based prescribing.

I really enjoy your webinars. The presenters are engaging and concise, presenting information pertinent to the clinician setting rather than emphasising research facts is welcome. Personal stories also provide an authentic connection. Thank you
Desley Lock

Thanks for this clear, insightful information. I have found any of the webinars or seminars I’ve attended have been useful, with little nuggets that pop back into mind when relevant.
Roz Fitzgerald

Excellent in-depth training, provides extensive and well-illustrated explanations and summaries, easy to understand. Really appreciate this comprehensive self-paced practitioner training.
Duong Tran

I really enjoyed the webinar on Autoimmunity. The simplicity of the treatment protocols and the results were mind-blowing! The research studies to back up treatment protocols are great resources too.

The DFH education and webinars are awesome. I have learnt so much, thank you.
