Functional medicine uses comprehensive clinical, biological and diagnostic testing techniques to find and address the root causes of chronic illnesses. Typical Western medicine, on the other hand, uses pharmaceutical medications to suppress symptoms rather than finding and addressing the root cause.
Functional medicine, also known as the biomedical approach, considers any and all of the following factors as causes of chronic illness:
- Toxicity
- Gut dysbiosis
- Immune dysregulation
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Hormonal imbalances
- Inflammation
Functional medicine can and has been used to recover children from:
- Autism
- ADHD
- Allergies
- Asthma
- Autoimmune disorders
- Mood disorders
- Lyme disease
- Type 2 diabetes
- Type 1 diabetes
