Given the spiraling fears about pathogens, viruses, and diseases (and the 24/7 news cycle that feeds them), you might be convinced that:
We’ve got cultural tunnel vision around pathogens and disease, with every new strain and variant getting the kind of attention that usually accompanies the launch of a new iPhone.
We’re also singularly focused on which external factors can help us cope with disease. And while timely medical intervention can and has saved lives, that doesn’t mean you’re powerless in the meantime. You can do a lot to strengthen your innate ability to fight disease.
Your immune system is incredibly powerful and adaptive—and by keeping it firing on all pistons, you can do a lot to protect yourself from pathogens if and when you encounter them.
This deep-dive workshop will give you the insights, strategies, tools, and support you need to optimize your immune system, prevent and address infections, and protect yourself against the growing number of immune challenges we face in the modern world.
This powerful, step-by-step program is designed to help you:
As the founder of the Kresser Institute and the ADAPT training programs, Chris Kresser has personally treated thousands of patients with immune-related challenges and trained over 2,000 practitioners and health coaches in more than 40 countries around the world in his unique approach.
Solid, trustworthy information about how to naturally boost your immunity is hard to come by. At one end of the spectrum, you have endless information: free blogs, podcasts, and social media posts, which are inconsistent at best and downright dangerous at worst. On the other end, you have working one-on-one with a Functional Medicine practitioner, which is a fantastic option but financially out of reach for most people.
Chris created this workshop to offer an evidence-based, reliable approach to naturally boosting immunity, including the specific resources and tools he has used in his practice for the last 10+ years—now in an accessible format, for a fraction of the cost.
Here’s some of what you’ll learn:
You’ll receive a video lesson each week that’s jam-packed with practical, actionable strategies for optimizing your immune system. Each new video is released on Monday, but you can watch anytime.
Connect with others just like you to share experiences and challenges, ask questions, and seek help from our global community.
These powerful tools are designed to help you immediately apply what you’re learning in the workshop.
Access our secure portal where you can watch or listen to the video sessions, download handouts and other resources, and interact with your fellow workshop participants.
Surprisingly, there’s almost no discussion in the mainstream media and medical establishment about how the immune system works and how to support immunity naturally. In week 1, we kick things off with a deep dive into the fundamentals of natural immunity, covering topics like:
Most scientists now believe that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, will become endemic—which means that it’s here to stay and will circulate each year like colds and flu. While vaccines and pharmaceuticals will continue to play an important role, research has shown that our overall health, nutrient status, physical activity, and other factors are also critical in determining the outcome of COVID-19 infection. In this module, you’ll discover:
While most of our attention is currently focused on the SARS-CoV-2 virus, there are many other circulating viruses that we’re exposed to each year, including the viruses that cause colds and flu. Most mainstream sources suggest that there’s nothing we can do to prevent or treat these infections other than over-the-counter (OTC) remedies that aim to alleviate the symptoms. In this module, you’ll learn:
We’ve all heard the saying, “You are what you eat.” That’s especially true when it comes to the immune system, which requires more than 40 micronutrients to function properly. Unfortunately, the Standard American Diet is depleted of nutrients and full of things that weaken our immunity, like sugar, industrial seed oils, and other processed and refined foods. In this module, you’ll discover:
Did you know that scientists now believe that over 70 percent of our immune system resides in our gut? In fact, our immune systems are only as healthy as our guts—yet our gut health is under continuous attack in the modern world, thanks to processed foods, antibiotics, environmental toxins, and stress. In this module, you’ll learn:
Diet and nutrients are certainly important when it comes to natural immunity. But many other factors are just as essential—and sometimes even more important—including sleep, physical activity, stress management, how we breathe, and more. In this module, you’ll discover:
Once you’ve covered all the natural immunity basics, it’s time to move on to more advanced tools and strategies. These include technologies like infrared light/photobiomodulation, sauna, pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, improving indoor air quality, and parasympathetic stimulation. We’ll separate fact from fad and discuss the importance of mindset and cultivating resilience for immune function. In this module, you’ll learn:

Chris Kresser, M.S., L.Ac., is a renowned expert, leading clinician, and top educator in the fields of Functional Medicine and ancestral health, and the New York Times-bestselling author of The Paleo Cure. Listed among the 100 most influential people in health and fitness by Greatist.com, he was awarded “Best Inspirational Voice” and “Best Health & Wellness Website” by Paleo magazine in 2019. His latest book is Unconventional Medicine.
Chris is the co-founder of the California Center for Functional Medicine, and served as the co-director with Dr. Sunjya Schweig from 2015-2020. Chris also founded the Kresser Institute in 2015 to provide the next generation of functional health practitioners and coaches with the skills and tools they need to turn the tide of chronic disease—and change the future of medicine. Through the Kresser Institute, Chris created and launched the ADAPT Practitioner and Health Coach Training Programs, and he and his team have trained over 2,000 health professionals around the world in his unique approach.
During a decade-long struggle with chronic illness, Chris learned first hand where health care mattered most—and where it came up short. After seeking the help of more than 30 healthcare practitioners and, ultimately, having to learn and implement behavioral change on his own with limited support, Chris emerged with his health—and a vision and drive for changing and improving the practice and education of Functional Medicine.
As his legions of fans and avid readers can attest, Chris remains tireless in his efforts to share evidence-based insights from trusted sources and world-renowned health practitioners and coaches—through his blogs, guides, webcasts, interviews, and his podcast, Revolution Health Radio. He has appeared regularly in the media, including The Dr. Oz show and Fox & Friends, as well as top-rated health podcasts, such as The Broken Brain, The Doctor’s Farmacy and The Ultimate Health Podcast.
Chris lives in Utah, with his wife and daughter.

Note that due to the number of participants in the workshop, we cannot guarantee that your specific question(s) will be answered.
No. Chris and faculty will mention specific lab tests, supplements, herbs, and other products that they have found to be helpful in their experience, and they will provide guidance on how to obtain them if you wish.
