Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Webinar
PTSD is a syndrome of distress that develops after exposure to traumatic life experiences. Traumatic stress experiences in early life are strong predisposing factors for later PTSD development.
Symptoms may include disturbing thoughts, feelings, or dreams related to the events, mental or physical distress to trauma-related cues, attempts to avoid trauma-related cues, alterations in the way a person thinks and feels, and an increase in the fight-or-flight response. These symptoms last for more than a month and sometimes many years after the event.
Research shows that approximately 10% of those exposed to trauma go on to develop PTSD. In the UK in 2014, 3.7% of men and 5.1% of women screened positive for PTSD.
Dysregulation of both the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the norepinephrine–sympathetic nervous system (NE-SNS) is associated with the pathophysiology of PTSD. Studies have demonstrated a neuroendocrine profile unique to adults with PTSD, with centrally elevated corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), low cortisol in the periphery, and elevated catecholamines. People experiencing PTSD are candidates for potential benefit from Nutritional Therapy because this discipline is one that can profoundly positively influence their cortisol levels and rhythms and thereby help to restore neuro-endocrine balance.
