Functional medicine is a legitimate approach to live a happy, healthy and long life. It encompasses a whole-body approach and addresses the root cause of all chronic lifestyle diseases.  Ageing is a result of some or all of the following factors, which can be addressed with functional medicine.

Nutritional deficiencies

In olden times, food eaten was whole, nutritious, freshly cooked, unprocessed and not stored for long. These days, soil is becoming deficient in nutrients and is heavily loaded with pesticides and toxins. Therefore, the lack of basic micro-nutrients is becoming too common and this is leading to disrupted metabolic pathways.
