The Science of Training Your Immune System – Free Immune Health Webinar with Dr. Ryan Lazarus
If you already pay attention to sleep, movement, food, and common immune-support habits but still wonder why some seasons leave you feeling more run-down than others, the usual advice to simply “boost” your immune system can feel incomplete.
Dr. Ryan Lazarus brings a different perspective: he describes a strong immune system as a balanced one, and he uses the idea of trained immunity to explain why immune support may involve more than making immune activity louder.
In this free online masterclass, he walks through the innate and adaptive immune systems, the 2011 research he uses to introduce trained immunity, and the daily habits he believes can influence immune balance. He also discusses baker’s yeast beta-glucan and where vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, and probiotics fit within his approach.
You’ll hear the science translated into plain English, along with the story of how he approached immune preparation for his wife, Natalia, before her seven-marathons-on-seven-continents-in-seven-days challenge. The session is educational and is followed by an open Q&A.
Why Attend “Train Your Immune System: An Exclusive Masterclass Premiere with Dr. Ryan Lazarus”

Immune health is easy to reduce to a list of vitamins or a call to “boost” your defenses, but that language can miss the question of balance. Dr. Lazarus uses this masterclass to explain why he believes immune activity can be too quiet or too loud, and why he prefers a training framework instead.
The session also gives you a plain-English way to think about innate and adaptive immunity. By placing trained immunity within that bigger picture, Dr. Lazarus offers context for a scientific idea that can otherwise sound abstract or overly technical.
Daily habits are part of the conversation, too, including sleep, stress, processed food, sitting still, movement, and overtraining. You’ll also hear how he positions common supplements and baker’s yeast beta-glucan within his approach, so you can leave with clearer questions rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
What You’ll Learn
In this session, you’ll start with the two broad sides of the immune system, so the later discussion of trained immunity has a clear foundation. Dr. Lazarus explains the innate and adaptive immune systems in plain English rather than assuming a science background.
From there, he introduces his “balance beats boosting” perspective and the teeter-totter metaphor, which means you can follow why he distinguishes a balanced response from an immune system that is simply more aggressive. He also walks through the 2011 research he uses to frame the idea that innate immunity can be trained.
Along the way, he connects the science with everyday habits such as sleep, food, movement, stress, and overtraining, and then places beta-glucan and common supplements within that broader picture. He also uses Natalia’s seven-marathon challenge as a personal example before the session moves into open Q&A.
Here’s just a little bit of what you’ll learn:
- How Dr. Lazarus distinguishes the innate and adaptive immune systems
- Why he describes balance rather than boosting as the goal of his immune-health framework
- The 2011 research he uses to introduce the concept of trained immunity
- How his teeter-totter metaphor explains immune activity that is too quiet or too loud
- How sleep, stress, processed food, inactivity, movement, and overtraining fit into his framework
- Why he focuses on baker’s yeast beta-glucan in relation to trained immunity
- Where he places vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, and probiotics alongside daily habits
- How he describes preparing Natalia for seven marathons on seven continents in seven days
- Questions you can bring into the open Q&A after the masterclass
Who This Is For
This masterclass is a fit if you want a more nuanced way to think about immune support than simply adding more supplements or trying to make your immune system “stronger.” The explanations are intended for a general audience, so you do not need a science background to follow the discussion.
It may also be useful if you are physically active, already use common immune-support supplements, or are curious about how sleep, food, movement, stress, and overtraining fit into Dr. Lazarus’s framework. The session is educational, so personal supplement or treatment decisions still belong in a conversation with a licensed healthcare professional who knows your history.
- You want a plain-English introduction to trained immunity
- You want a more nuanced framework than simply trying to boost immune activity
- You are curious about how sleep, stress, food, movement, and overtraining fit together
- You exercise regularly and want context on the immune-health conversation around training load
- You already use vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, or probiotics and want to hear Dr. Lazarus’s perspective
- You are curious about baker’s yeast beta-glucan and want educational context before making personal health decisions
About Dr. Ryan Lazarus
Dr. Ryan Lazarus is a clinical nutritionist and licensed chiropractor with more than 20 years of experience. His work has included more than 3,000 patients, ranging from people with serious health challenges to professional athletes.
He is also identified as the creator of the Lazarus Method. In this masterclass, his focus is immune balance and trained immunity, with an emphasis on translating the topic into practical, plain-English explanations.
Dr. Lazarus uses simple visual metaphors such as a teeter-totter, a sniper, and a team of guards to explain immune concepts. He also connects those ideas with everyday foundations including sleep, food, and movement, along with his perspective on vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, probiotics, and baker’s yeast beta-glucan.
The session includes the personal story of his wife, Natalia, who set out to complete seven marathons on seven continents in seven days. Dr. Lazarus shares how he approached immune preparation for that challenge as an example of his framework, not as a guarantee of what another person should expect.

What does “trained immunity” mean in this masterclass?
Dr. Lazarus uses trained immunity to explain research suggesting that the innate immune system can be trained rather than simply boosted. He connects that idea to research published in 2011 and explains its relevance during the session.
Why does Dr. Lazarus say “balance beats boosting”?
Dr. Lazarus argues that a strong immune system is not simply an aggressive one. His teeter-totter framework looks at what happens when immune activity is too quiet or too loud and why he prefers the idea of balance.
How do innate and adaptive immunity fit into the session?

Why does baker’s yeast beta-glucan come up in the masterclass?
The session focuses on baker’s yeast beta-glucan as the molecule at the center of Dr. Lazarus’s approach and as a compound studied in relation to trained immunity. He describes it as a “personal trainer” for the immune system.
Does Dr. Lazarus discuss vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, and probiotics?
Yes. Dr. Lazarus explains where vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, and probiotics fit in his framework and why he views them as filling gaps rather than replacing the foundations of sleep, food, and movement.
Should I change my supplements based on this masterclass?
No. The masterclass is educational and should not be used on its own to start, stop, reduce, replace, or change a supplement or prescribed treatment. Discuss individualized decisions with a licensed healthcare professional familiar with your medical history.
