TOPIC

Nutrition & Intestine

Tailor-​made ways to a healthy diet and a balanced gut.
The food we eat should provide our body with the nutri­ents it needs for growth, deve­lo­p­ment and func­tion. Good nutri­tion is crucial as it not only promotes overall health, but also influences gut health, which in turn plays an essen­tial role in the absorp­tion and utiliza­tion of these nutri­ents.

SYMPTOMS

Digestive problems

Food into­le­rances, irri­table bowel syndrome with diar­rhea or cons­ti­pa­tion or stomach cramps are just a few examples of how diges­tion can keep us busy every day, even though we simply want our diges­tion to func­tion properly.

Weight changes

Being over­weight, but also under­weight, are usually signs of a diet that is not right for us. In both cases, we do not feel well in our bodies, we are under­sup­plied with nutri­ents, exhausted and often suffer from secon­dary dise­ases such as diabetes or high blood lipid levels.

Skin problems

The skin is a reflec­tion of health. An inap­pro­priate diet, food into­le­rances or a disturbed intestinal flora can have a nega­tive effect on the skin. Skin problems such as acne, eczema or prema­ture skin ageing can be signs of nutri­tional imba­lances.

Approach

Observations

What does a healthy diet actually mean in a world where there is endless contra­dic­tory infor­ma­tion about it? Whether vegan, vege­ta­rian or paleo — nutri­tion is often seen as a reli­gion. In most cases, eating is no longer about nouris­hing the body and mind, but about expres­sing a certain life­style. 

We are often unaware of which foods support our bodies not only to become and stay healthy, but also to feel ener­gized and balanced.

Forms of therapy

Together we iden­tify possible into­le­rances and find out which foods provide your body with the best possible nutri­tion in your current life situa­tion. We support you in achie­ving your desired weight, deto­xi­fying your body and incre­asing your vita­lity through a perma­nent change in diet and with the help of an indi­vi­dual nutri­tion plan. We also accom­pany you on fasting cures and make it as easy as possible for you to take the step towards a healt­hier life.

We also use certain forms of nutri­tion, such as the keto­genic diet for mental and neuro­lo­gical illnesses (depres­sion, epilepsy, dementia), as a targeted therapy.
We help you achieve your desired weight, deto­xify your body and increase your vita­lity with the help of an indi­vi­dual nutri­tion plan.

GOOD TO KNOW

We look forward to welco­ming you to our clinic. We take enough time to under­stand your medical history. Based on your previous findings, the completed medical history form and our diagno­stics, we will create a custo­mized treat­ment plan for you. Please note that you should come with an empty stomach (water is permitted) to enable us to make an accu­rate diagnosis.

We attach great importance to cost trans­pa­rency and will inform you of the costs incurred before treat­ment begins. Please note that private health insu­rance poli­cies are very unli­kely to cover all services. In such cases, you will have to bear the costs yourself. We will be happy to answer any ques­tions you may have about insu­rance cover, co-​payments or payment options.

To make your appoint­ment with us as conve­nient as possible, we offer you the option of simply arran­ging your consul­ta­tion online. You can choose between appoint­ments of 30 or 60 minutes, depen­ding on your needs. Alternatively, you can also leave us a message by phone and we will get back to you imme­dia­tely to arrange your appoint­ment.

To ensure effec­tive commu­ni­ca­tion, we ask you to select an appoint­ment option online. Be it for a face-​to-​face appoint­ment in the prac­tice, a video consul­ta­tion or a tele­phone consul­ta­tion. Alternatively, you can also leave us a tele­phone message.

Please under­stand that e‑mail inqui­ries cannot be answered due to time cons­traints.

Please note that repeat prescrip­tion orders will be processed with suffi­cient lead time (14 days). For prescrip­tion requests, please send an e‑mail to: rezepte@zentrum-funktionelle-medizin.de

We are aware of our respon­si­bi­lity and devote the utmost atten­tion to your concerns. The path of func­tional medi­cine requires pati­ence and it takes expe­ri­ence to develop solu­tions that enable health in depth. In doing so, we conduct rese­arch and talk to other specia­lists and thera­pists until we have found a solu­tion.
