Functional diagnostic medicine is a growing field and a giant step forward in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of many chronic diseases. Unlike the traditional disease-specific approach, which is focused on symptoms, functional medicine sheds light on the causes. This integrative approach does not merely call for multiple standard medical tests, but goes to the next level, investigating the biochemical and metabolic “glitches” likely to cause disease processes.

It integrates the individual’s environmental inputs, which include diet, nutrients (including air and water), exercise, trauma, genetic predispositions, attitudes and beliefs into the diagnostic assay.
