27th January | Our first Roadmap for 2026 focuses on this month’s theme: liver health—explored through the question, how well do you really understand liver function tests?
Most practitioners can identify when liver enzymes are elevated but interpreting what those changes actually mean is another matter. Can you distinguish between a liver struggling with detoxification burden versus early pathological change? Do you understand the clinical significance of specific enzyme ratios, or why AST might be elevated when ALT is normal?
LFTs are among the most commonly ordered blood tests, yet they’re often misunderstood or oversimplified in clinical practice. Presented by Tanya Borowski, this 50-minute Roadmap reframes your approach, moving beyond a binary “normal/abnormal” mindset to uncover the metabolic story reflected in these markers.
In this webinar, you’ll discover:
- Foundational understanding rebuilt: What each liver marker truly represents at a biochemical level, and how they fit into the broader blood chemistry picture – connecting liver function to lipid metabolism, blood glucose regulation, inflammation, and nutritional status.
- Decoding LFT patterns: How to interpret enzyme ratios (AST:ALT, GGT trends, ALP elevations), recognise what different patterns suggest, and identify when results that appear normal may still signal functional compromise.
- Pattern recognition and investigation priorities: How to connect LFT patterns with other biochemical findings, clinical markers, clinical presentation, and health history to guide your investigation and create targeted, evidence-based intervention strategies.
This is essential learning for any practitioner working with metabolic health, hormonal imbalances, digestive dysfunction, or chronic illness—because liver function underpins everything. Ideal for Nutritional therapists, Naturopaths, and Functional Medicine practitioners looking to refine their clinical interpretation skills and offer more nuanced, informed care.
