‘The simplicity of health and disease’
 
“We are copies of an original design, molded and formed to be the most complex and perfect expression of light, water, and magnetism interacting with proteins, sugars, and fats.
 
Illness does not arise from flaws in this design but from deviations—dilutions, reductions, or reversals—away from it. Our health mirrors our alignment with nature, which maintains the build.
 
No chemical can elevate or improve the capacity of this perfect blueprint. The idea that a drug can enhance what was flawless from the start is not only illogical but impossible. The truth is clear: the only impact a drug can have is to disrupt, not perfect.” – Dr. Marcus Ettinger.
 
 

How Functional Medicine Addresses Digestive Issues

 

Disorders of the digestive system, such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), H. pylori, leaky gut syndrome, and more chronic conditions like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease (IBD), often stem from underlying biochemical imbalances, chronic stress response, and lifestyle alterations. Functional medicine is uniquely designed to address underlying causes rather than mask or treat symptoms.

Unlike conventional medicine, which may only provide temporary relief through medication, functional medicine focuses on lifestyle modifications—including diet, exercise, and stress management—to facilitate long-term health improvements.

 

Health Challenges Addressed by Functional Medicine

 

Functional medicine can help with a variety of health challenges, including:

  • Digestive disorders (e.g., SIBO, leaky gut)
  • Autoimmune diseases (e.g., Hashimoto’s, rheumatoid arthritis)
  • Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia
  • Hormonal imbalances (e.g., adrenal and thyroid issues)
  • Mental health challenges (e.g., ADD/ADHD)

If you’re seeking a genuine solution to chronic health issues beyond symptomatic treatment, functional medicine may be the refreshing approach you need.

    Hello, I found you through searching about Lyme and HSV family infections. I have a very complex case involving toxicity and autoimmune as well as other debilitating factors. I know that you need to directly review things to know if there’s a good fit, but generally speaking, based on these aforementioned criteria alone, have you managed cases with this level of complexity before?

      Ms. Allen,

      In 31+ years I have helped many kids with their GI issues (UC, Crohn’s, IBS, SIBO…). I review all labs and forms, order additional tests if needed, perform an in-depth consultation and examination and come up with a protocol. After that, we have routine follow-up appointments to fine-tune. Here is a link to my policies and fees. Please call my office if I can be of further assistance – 714-639-4360.
