Functional Nutrition

Nutrition

Health problems are often due to chemical imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, or organ/system dysfunctions. A new model of health care has emerged called functional nutrition (or functional medicine). This unique new approach incorporates traditional diagnostic tools and technologies (such as blood analysis, urinalysis, MRI, CT scans, etc.), as well as emerging new tests that help us identify the critical imbalances which may be the root of illness and disease. Therapeutic interventions involve lifestyle modification and prescribing specific supplements to restore balance and health.
