Understanding the Need of Functional Medicine in Cardio-Vascular and other Health Imbalances


Cardio-vascular health is a reflection of diet and lifestyle. Some bacteria like H. Pylori can cause inflammation of the vessels, high blood pressure, and heart disease. All these factors are investigated in depth with the use of functional diagnostic tests before applying any therapy to the biochemical glitch. Each individual will present unique biochemical imbalances. So, each one of my prescriptions will be unique.

Metabolic markers of high triglycerides, high cholesterol, high or low cholesterol particles, blood sugar dysregulation, insulin resistance, and other, are closely investigated too. In functional medicine we know that insulin levels are more important to investigate than glucose levels when it comes to determine insulin resistance or diabetes type I. But we don’t stop there! We also investigate and address the myriad of cardio-metabolic issues that arise from this metabolic dysregulation of insulin that is caused by diet and lifestyle.
In functional medicine we look at the hormonal balance of all our patients / clients. High cortisol leads to insulin resistance and obesity, as well as to PCOs in women; or high blood pressure. Men with low testosterone will have high levels of estrogen which puts them at high risk of developing cancer of the prostate or even of the breast. Abnormal hormonal balance causes infertility in both men and women. And women in menopause and peri-menopause go through the toughest times of their lives when their levels of estrogen and progesterone decline naturally with age.

Whatsoever the health problem may be, functional medicine will have a deep impact than other approaches to find the various biochemical imbalance that cause the main symptoms through functional lab testing and address them with nutrients, healing foods, lifestyle prescriptions, and stress management.
