— About The Show
Functional Medicine Doc Talk - a podcast about health, wellness, and how to use functional and integrative medicine to optimize health, and overcome chronic illness.
What
Functional medicine is an approach to health care that looks to determine the underlying root cause of illness. This approach comes from understanding that all body systems are integrated, but most important is the functional relationship of the digestive, hormone and immune systems.
Integrative medicine is the expanded implementation of health treatments including dietary intervention, nutritional supplements, natural medicine, and diagnostic testing for a more comprehensive approach to health care. This area of health care has been the focus of Dr. Kurt N. Woeller for over 25 years. This podcast is one of his avenues of sharing his expertise regarding health information.
Dr. Woeller explores a wide variety of topics through collaborative discussions with other experts in medicine and health science fields.
