Sometimes we make the mistake of thinking that functional medicine is infallible; unfortunately, this is not the case. Today we will discuss how a fairly popular functional medicine lab was found to falsify lab ranges, a change which led to increased treatment recommendations, which were serviced by their sister company's supplements. This story provides a good example for both clinicians and patients as to why a more conservative outlook on functional medicine is important.
