You need to look at the whole person, not just the symptoms

This new map is the basis of Functional Medicine. It is a rich new method, a fundamental change in our thinking, a whole different paradigm. It changes our approach to the very way we think about illness and the human body and brain.⁣
⁣
You and the person sitting next to you could both have chronic symptoms we call a “headache,” but maybe your pain is caused by drinking too much wine every night, while his pain is the result of being hit on the head with the empty bottle every night. As you can imagine, these two chronic headaches can’t be cured in the same way, because their root causes are different. But that approach is exactly the one the current medical community is taking!⁣
⁣
The truth is that you can’t treat mental illness effectively by using ONLY drugs or psychotherapy. You need to treat the body, because the body and brain are one interconnected system. ⁣
⁣
What you do to your body, you do to your brain. Treat your body and you treat your brain. ONLY when you fix your body will you fix your broken brain.⁣

Makes sense 🤔

There’s no evidence that we need milk to strengthen our bones. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
The federal government tells us that milk is a perfect food that Americans should lap up daily, three glasses to be exact—in spite of a large (and growing) body of research showing its lack of benefits and awful side effects. I agree it is nature’s perfect food…but only if you are a calf!⠀⁣
⠀⁣
Humans are the only species that continue to drink milk after weaning. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
These dairy-free options are not only better sources of calcium, but they also contain other great sources of nutrients. ⠀
