three main pillars:
Metabolic health Hormonal health Gastrointestinal health
Improve metabolic health by reducing inflammation which we believe is the underlying process for most chronic diseases ( cancers, heart disease, auto-immune disease etc.)

By measuring very specific inflammatory markers we can determine your level of inflammation i.e. chronic disease temperature.
Once that is determined we can strategically reduce the inflammation and serially monitor to confirm a reduction in inflammation.
Hormonal health is essential to aging well. In conventional thinking we say our hormones decline because we are aging.

In Functional Medicine we say we age because our hormones decline. Measure estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, DHEA.
Saliva test is both accurate and easy(test kit will be supplied and it’s as easy as dropping it off at UPS for shipment to our private lab in Ontario).
Gastro-intestinal health is
another essential component.

What is Functional Medicine?
Personalized Precision Medicine based on a
Tailor-made Approach for each And every patient.
The functional medicine model of care offers a patient-centered approach to chronic disease management.
It seeks to answer the question, “Why are you ill?”
so you can receive personalized, effective care for your needs.
We use Functional Medicine, focusing on the cause of a medical condition rather than the symptoms.
We consider the full medical and lifestyle history of the individual and use a patient-centered approach.
The hallmarks of aging are how our biology becomes out of balance.
✔ Conventional medicine describes the what: what disease, what pathway is dysfunctional, what drug to take.
✔ The model of Functional Medicine guides us to the why: to the root causes of diseases and aging.
✔ Many longevity research efforts focus on just treating the hallmarks of aging, without treating their underlying causes.
That’s where Functional Medicine comes in.
