From time to time I may recommend a product or company, providing a link. If you choose to make a purchase from an affiliate (like Bulk Herbs) I receive a small commission. It does not increase your cost. I only recommend products that I have experience with and use myself.
Some products are recommended for their health benefits. Please do some study on your own. Every family is unique. Suggestions made here are not intended to replace medical care.
Hello Carol, I read your review of Good Energy. Comments were closed. I appreciate the information.
I was a family physician for 40 years. I don’t quite understand functional medicine. I think it’s the same as what I told patients about healthy living, without dealing with the reality that people still get sick. Certainly, now we understand health better at the molecular level, but from a practical standpoint, we’ve given the same advice for a long time. Anyway, I appreciate your career and blog and your disclaimer about medical care.
Thank you for your comment. My daughter practices functional medicine. The goal is to understand the source of symptoms and fix the problem (as opposed to treating symptoms). She spends more time with patients, getting an accurate history. Nutrition, sleep pattern, family history are all considered before she orders blood tests. I am hopeful that with a new secretary of HHS, our medical system will be incentivized to find ways to turn around chronic disease.
