Naturopathic functional medicine vs conventional
Naturopathic Medicine is the gold standard for true holistic care. For those who tire of hearing the words wellness and functional medicine with weak follow through and muddy thinking, Naturopathic medicine offers concrete actionable directives to achieve optimal health.
NDs treat with a different perspective that puts more emphasis on optimization of the whole.
For example, if you have heartburn and are given an anti-acid, you might feel relief temporarily but you also have lowered your gastric acids that protect you from pathogens, promote absorption of vitamin D and K, and disrupted your gut flora worsening your digestion and mood. Naturopathic medicine would first find out if you have too much or too little acid, if food sensitivities trigger gastric complaints, if behaviors exacerbate your condition before offering treatments. Similarly if you have an UTI, you can receive antibiotics delivered to your door but now have compromised your gut and vaginal flora giving you bloating and a yeast infection. Naturopathic medicine will ask why you had the UTI in the first place and offer treatments that leave your flora alone. Conversations regarding your bowel movements and menstrual cycle are also important in a holistic health approach. Virtual conventional medicine is still conventional. There’s another way.
