What Is Functional Medicine
Functional medicine is personalized medicine that deals with primary prevention and underlying causes instead of symptoms for serious chronic disease. It is a science-based field of health care that is grounded in the principles of biochemical individuality, the web-like interaction of physiological factors, and health as vitality, not simply as lack of disease.
