What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine is an integrative approach to health care that is patient-centered and addresses the whole body, not just a set of symptoms or disease. In this way, functional medicine seeks to identify and treat the underlying causes of disease.
Why nutrition?
As Registered Dietitians, we use a "food-first” approach. We also recognize patients need more than "just" food for optimal health so we take a whole- person centered approach to your care. Functional nutrition emphasizes healthful eating personalized to YOUR genetics, lifestyle, environment and health concerns. We use nutrients to maximize the potential for health and reverse dysfunction or disease. There is no single "right diet" or single nutrient supplement that applies to all of us. This is why we use an individualized approach.
What are some root causes your functional medicine practice uncovers?
Keep in mind, there are many root causes of your symptoms and conditions. There are several factors that can contribute to your health status today. These may include:
-
Chronic antibiotic, steroid, PPI (acid blockers), medications usage
-
Viruses, bacterial infections
-
Stress/trauma
-
Sedentary lifestyle
-
Micronutrient deficiencies and food sensitivities
-
Injuries
-
Genetics
-
Leaky Gut
-
SIBO (Small Bacterial Intestinal Overgrowth)
-
Environmental: Allergens | Mold | Toxins | Heavy Metal Exposure
