Women's Health

Topics: Tame The Flame - How lowering inflammation and balancing hormones are the key to health

Inflammation - causes, triggers and solutions

The Heart of the Matter - inflammation and heart health and how to know your risk

Lifestyle choices to reduce inflammation

The triple threat of diabetes, heart disease and inflammation

It takes two to tango - hormones and inflammation

De-tension - How stress management can reduce inflammation and improve your health

The truth inside you: how traditional testing fails to prevent heart disease

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome/Obesity--Managing the Cardiometabolic Risk of Insulin Resistance

Objectives: Attendees will be able to:

Identify the mechanisms of chronic inflammation

Correlate lifestyle alternatives to lower inflammation

Identify secondary causes of obesity (medications, supplements, gut health, etc)

Identify testing that most accurately identifies risks of diabetes, heart disease and inflammatory impacts

Understand the link between insulin, cortisol, estrogen and inflammation

Identify stress mechanisms that impact disease

Delineate strategies for reversal of inflammation and subsequent disease

Identify the metabolic abnormalities associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)

Explain the implications of these abnormalities on the risk for heart disease and diabetes mellitus.

Optional: Attendees will be provided a lab requisition for testing of their own inflammatory and metabolic markers, hormones and advanced cholesterol levels. These results will be confidentially provided to each attendee for their own private use during group education sessions.


Group education sessions will be held regarding interpretation of laboratory values and management strategies

Conference Sessions generally take place on days at sea (as itinerary allows), giving you plenty of time to enjoy your meals, evenings and ports of call with your companion, family and friends.

Speakers/Faculty:

Tara Dall, MD, FNLA

Diplomate American Board Clinical Lipidology

Physician Owner AvanceMD Concierge, Richmond, VA

Co-Founder lecturepad.org

Chief Medical Officer MD21


Dr. Tara Dall is a board certified lipidologist with roots in family medicine and training at the University of Wisconsin Madison. She is a national thought leader in biomarker and genetic testing having spent the last 15 years using advanced biomarker testing in the clinical care of patients. She graduated in the inaugural class of Diplomates of the American Board of Clinical Lipidology in 2005. Her center achieved national recognition as the first fully certified Level II lipid clinic in the United States.


In 2008, Dr. Dall formed the Early Detection Center for heart disease and diabetes near Madison, Wisconsin and served as a clinical associate professor for the Medical College of Wisconsin. Two years later, she brought her fight against heart disease to the web, co-founding Lecturepad.org and MD21.com web platforms that advance clinical understanding and application of advanced lipid and biomarker testing. 


For 3 years Dr. Dall served as Chief Medical Officer of Health Diagnostic Laboratory. As an author and educator on biomarker research focused on the role that insulin resistance plays in diabetes prevention she has expanded the education of physicians to prevent chronic disease. She has a special interest in insulin resistance's role in cardiovascular disease, women's heart disease, Autoimmune disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and obesity. She is philosophically aligned with the functional medicine movement believing in importance of identifying root causes of chronic disease. She also serves as chief of cardiometabolic education at the non-profit Foundation for Health Improvement and Technology (FHIT) and on the scientific advisory board of the Lupus Foundation.


Known for her passionate delivery of complex medical topics in patient-friendly terms, Dr. Dall is a sought after speaker, traveling the world to present research on advanced biomarkers. She is a also a regular go-to for reporters, appearing on Bloomberg News, CBS Sports, CNN Radio, Reach MD Satellite Radio, and RadioHealth Journal. She was also a regular guest on KTXD-TV's The Broadcast in Dallas, as well as programs on wabcradio.com (Optimal wellness and Forever Young). She continues to practice medicine as a physician founder of AvanceMD Concierge in Richmond, VA which incorporates cutting edge web based technology to the human touch of medicine, providing services to local as well as national and international clients. 


Jeralyn Brossfield, MD, FACOG 

Diplomate, American Board of Obesity Medicine

Director, Eisenhower Wellness Institute


Dr. Brossfield's interest in Medicine began as a child of missionary parents in The Sudan. She pursued medical training at Loma Linda University where the motto, "To Make Man Whole" resonated with her personal mission of providing holistic, comprehensive care. 


Moving to the Coachella Valley in 2002, Dr. Brossfield became known as a doctor who listens and partners with her patients to create total wellness. The needs of her patients led Dr. Brossfield to pursue further training in menopause, sexuality, and weight management. To support the achievement of sustainable lifestyle transformation, Dr. Brossfield created a network of coaches who work with others on similar weight loss journeys. These coaches have assisted thousands in achieving and sustaining their optimal weight. During this process, Dr. Brossfield realized the need to reach a larger community with tools for wellness and optimal health.


It was therefore a natural transition to move into Directorship of Eisenhower Medical Center's Wellness Institute in June of 2013. In this work, she seeks to bring wellness into her community through accessible, relevant support of each person's wholeness in mind, body and spirit.
