FAQs about Functional Medicine and Functional Nutrition

Functional medicine is a patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease rather than just treating symptoms. It considers the complex interactions between genetics, environment, and lifestyle factors to develop personalized treatment plans aimed at restoring and maintaining optimal health.

 

Functional medicine differs from conventional medicine in its holistic approach. While conventional medicine often focuses on managing symptoms with medication or surgery, functional medicine seeks to understand the underlying causes of illness by examining the entire body’s systems, including nutrition, lifestyle, and environment. This approach allows for personalized, proactive care that aims to prevent disease and promote long-term health.

 

Functional medicine can be effective in managing and treating a wide range of chronic conditions, including autoimmune diseases, digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, chronic fatigue, mental health issues, and metabolic conditions like diabetes. By addressing the root causes, functional medicine aims to improve overall well-being and reduce the risk of future health problems.
