#198 - How functional medicine focuses on personalized health | Dr. Anjali Dsouza & Mike Haney

How is functional medicine different from traditional healthcare? Functional medicine focuses on patient-facing time and individual biomarkers for forming a comprehensive, individualized plan to empower people in matters of their health and well-being. The Western medicine model often leaves much to be desired when it comes to building a long-term relationship with a patient that helps foster their ultimate health. Listen as Dr. Anjali Dsouza and Mike Haney discuss how functional medicine—with a focus on nutrition and metabolic health—helps address mechanisms and root causes, and why this is especially important for women.
