"Functional Medicine"

Functional medicine is the process of restoring the body to a state of homeostasis. Functional medicine is practiced by all types of physicians. Treating the body naturally by providing nutrients to support body systems corrects dysfunction and restores homeostasis.  Most patients had a symptom based approach to their health.  Functional medicine provides a blueprint to restore normal body functions so the body can correct and repair itself.  When we fall and scrape our knee our body will repair.  When we get a sunburn or a cold our body will repair.  If we provide proper nutrition and avoid potential pathogens are bodies can regenerate and repair itself.  Although some conditions may require medical assistance we can provide an optimal state of health for our bodies to do the best that it is made to do.  Functional medicine is that simple.  Basic understanding of how the body functions and avoidance of improper diet and lifestyle can correct many symptoms.  We all know that heart disease and diabetes are rapidly increasing and I younger populations.  These are lifestyle and induced pathologies.  Simple education, lifestyle modification and proper nutrition is the beginning of health restoration.
