    Thank you for your teaching, Dr. Hyman! There aren’t not enough doctors who truly care to find root causes, & find paths to HEAL!
    You have been a trusted voice for me for the last 2 years. Your truthful information was an answer to my prayers, as I was getting NO relief, or answers from several specialized doctors I was seeing. Your teaching was so helpful, mostly about food & vitamin supplements, and helped to bring about quick healing from some unbearable health issues!!

    Why is Functional Medicine being kept out of Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare…and ALL the insurances being marketed to cover employees & their families during years when the foundation of wellbeing can be best established?

    Thanks for these informative and detailed video Dr. Hyman. I am a IIN health and wellness coach graduate. As such, I have to constantly explain to the general public what functional/integrative medicine is because as a “not doctor” (in conventional medicine that is… 😊) I have found difficult the “credibility” factor…
    So I’ve shared this video many times over to try and educate people on the subject. It is to the point, clear, simple yet thorough enough to convey the message.

      The number one best thing you can do is stop eating man-made garbage (all sugar, processed anything, grain carbs) and only eat God created, Whole Foods. If you drink, stop. If you smoke, stop. Get outside as much as possible. Air out your house. Move as much as possible. These things are free, and incredibly powerful. No doctor needed to do these things.

    What is functional medicine? When you think you need to see a chiropractor for a back ache, you’ve self diagnosed and referred yourself to a specialist, totally uneducated unscreened assumption.
    But the system is stuck in the ignorance of the ‘80’s, where specialists were sought and general practitioners were generic, increasingly bypassed. General practitioners were perceived like country doctors. Plus the money was better for doctors and insurance and pharmacy deals if they specialized. And worse if not in with the Medicare Medicaid and Tricare systems and insurance umbrella.

    Are you talking about traditionally trained nutritionists? Most of what they are taught has been disproved and is harmful to some.

    • @dfwdfw9544
      @dfwdfw9544 2 роки тому

      Ehhh. That's not true.
      There is an issue with the quality and design of much nutritional research, historically. But it's not that it has been disproven. The reliability of the research is weaker compared to other branches of medicine. The problem is often credited to the difficulty of designing long term studies that isolate the effects of specific foods.
      That is not the same as being disproven. There's still merit in what nutritional science has shown. It's just messy science - frustratingly messy.

    Sorry but ... Isn't this what Family Medicine has been doing for decades? This sounds like repackaging the same old goods and calling it new, possibly as a way to get patients seeing more of your own providers to maximize revenue.
    The issues with healthcare in the US have more to do with access and affordability - and if primary care providers are not managing to coordinate care, then that is because they are overworked, understaffed and pressed by insurance companies to not spend enough time with their patients thinking about their needs comprehensively - holistically.
    It's the ethical responsibility of MDs and healthcare administrators to fight to fix the underlying problems with the system , but rebrand holistic primary care (e.g. family medicine) as "functional medicine.". Get marketing out of medicine.
