Getting Started with Functional Medicine
The concept of Everything Is Connected started 6 years ago with readings and exposures to the concept of root cause medicine. The works of Dale Bredesen, Mark Hyman, and Jeffrey Bland are and continue to be very influential in a movement toward individualized medicine. Cleveland Clinic’s opening of a Functional Medicine clinic in March 2015 offered legitimacy to the field. As we have gone deeper into the learning and education of Functional Medicine, we are absolutely convinced this is the next step for the development of ideal healthcare in the world.
“Lasting health comes from the interaction of our genes with our lifestyle and environment. Personalizing this connection is the future.”
– Jeffrey Bland, PhD, FACN
