What is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is an evolution in the practice
of medicine which addresses the health care needs of
the 21st century.
By shifting
the focus of medical practice to a patient-centered
approach, Functional Medicine addresses the whole
person and deals with the cause of your illness, not
just the symptoms.
Ask yourself:
Are you
under a lot of stress at work or at home?
Do you
often feel tired for no apparent reason?
Due to
family history are you at a higher risk for
diseases such as: heart disease, diabetes,
cancer or arthritis?
Is losing
weight difficult, but gaining seems unavoidable?
Do you
often eat or crave foods like pasta, chips, and
sweets?
Do you
have trouble remembering things or
concentrating?
Do you
wake up tired and wishing you could go back to
bed?
Does your
doctor say “everything’s ok” but you still feel
lousy?
Are you
taking supplements, but feel they’re not
working?
If you answered yes to any of the preceding
questions, Functional Medicine will help you. Start
treating the cause of your illness rather than just
the symptoms. Prevent illness instead of spending
time, money and heartache treating it.
"I was
not having difficulty getting pregnant but
would have miscarriages after the seventh
week of the pregnancy. I was so afraid to
try again since I had been through it twice.
After going through the initial testing [I
was
told] I was very acidic and after going
through the diet, I found out I was allergic
to gluten and to lactose. When I was tested
for progesterone on one of the pregnancies,
it was low. After finishing approx 6mos of
medical food and functional medicine
assessments , my husband and I tried getting
pregnant again. I am now 6 weeks away from
delivering my third child. We are very
thankful... I
didn't know that functional medicine existed
and that it would help me greatly."

"I had back problems, was very depressed, overweight and
had knee problems. I thought my age had something to do
with most of my problems... [I] started on the functional medicine.
Since starting... I feel great mentally
and physically. My back and knees no longer hurt. I am
walking up to 4 miles a day pain free. I have lost 20
pounds and I am no longer depressed. I have stopped
taking a lot of my medications because there is no
longer a need for them. I have already been recommending
people... I feel better now than I have in 30 years."
