Show Notes
Most of us have been conditioned to believe that all you need to do is go see a doctor and they'll give you a pill or some other type of treatment and everything will be instantly better. The U.S. has the greatest healthcare spending per capita of any nation, yet the shortest lifespan in the developed world. The problem is the medicine and health insurance industry who are driven purely by profit. Medicine only treats symptoms and makes you reliant upon pharmaceuticals and often surgery.
Functional Medicine takes a systems approach to medicine and focuses on root causes to prevent chronic illness and optimize your well-being to maximize longevity and happiness. In this candid conversation, we explore the current state of healthcare in America, the effects of medication mistakes, the power of functional medicine and more!
