This is an introductory course in environmental medicine. The concept of body burden will be discussed along with an overview of the major classes of environmental toxins, exposure routes and common symptoms associated with exposure. We will discuss the role of TCM and other methods in treating those whose health is compromised by environmental toxicity.

The goals of the class are for students to understand the big picture of environmental toxicity, to begin to develop a high index of suspicion that environmental toxicity may need to be addressed with some patients, and to understand how to take a detailed environmental exposure history.
