RCCX Practitioner Course

RCCX

Unravelling the Genomic Instability of Complex Illness

INTRODUCING

RCCX & Complex Illness:

Introduction to Theory, Phenotype & Therapies

An in-depth training course for health professionals

The RCCX gene cluster located on chromosome 6 is one of the most complex and intriguing regions of the human genome. Situated in the middle of the MHC region, RCCX genotypes have been extensively studied in association with many complex diseases, yet no published literature exists which links the myriad of comorbidities to RCCX haplotypes.
Furthermore, no existing therapies have been considered …until now…

Another excellent training by Michael McEvoy. RCCX & Complex Illness course summarizes an enormous amount of data and research in great details. This course helps to understand complex mechanisms behind core genetic susceptibilities for patients with diseases involved with the RCCX Phenotype. Information covered in this course will help to develop strategies for effective therapies and treatment for people with complex health conditions associated with this anomalous genetic cluster and help patients through their healing journey.

In this course you will learn:

What RCCX is and why it differs from most of our genetics
Why RCCX is a central player in complex diseases & associated comorbidities: lupus, celiac, Type 1 diabetes, Crohn’s, IBS, RA, AS, schizophrenia, emotional processing disorders, bi-polar, autism, EDS, hypermobility, MCAS, POTS, clotting abnormalities, CAH, PCOS, endometriosis, CIRS, Lyme disease, neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, “adrenal fatigue” and more
The role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in complex disease, particularly among those associated with hypermobility conditions
How to identify the major RCCX phenotype characteristics in patients and clients through intake
The role of cortisol & CYP21a2 in the CNS
The role of synaptic pruning, and problems associated with this in relation to C4 & RCCX
The yin/yang effects of endogenous retroviruses such as HERV-K
Viral & pathogenic susceptibilities in relation to RCCX and autoimmune disease
Therapeutic protocols directed at supporting genomic instabilities associated with RCCX

The RCCX course addresses an important (frequent, sometimes disabling, and often difficult-to-diagnose) set of complex clinical issues. Equally important it sheds light on what we need to come out of high-quality research in the 21st century. Many clinicians, patients and researchers have sensed that aspects of these phenotypes are biologically intertwined. This is increasingly being confirmed by our rapidly-evolving visibility into the biologic frameworks and processes underlying "omic" contributors to phenotypes.
