the functional medicine
approach to healthy aging


HEALTH AGING

Practitioners look at your genetic makeup, lifestyle habits, environment, and personal health history to design a plan that supports your aging process in the most effective way.

Instead of focusing on symptoms, functional medicine practitioners aim to uncover the root causes of issues such as inflammation, hormone imbalances, poor digestion, and oxidative stress, which contribute to age-related diseases like Alzheimer’s, heart disease, and arthritis.

Emphasis is placed on nutrition as a foundational pillar of healthy aging. A nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory diet is key for supporting cellular function, reducing oxidative stress, and maintaining overall health. Recommended foods include:
