\nFunctional medi\u00adcine deals with the deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment, preven\u00adtion and treat\u00adment of complaints and dise\u00adases on the basis of patient-\u200bcentered treat\u00adment. The focus of func\u00adtional medi\u00adcine is on promo\u00adting health in the form of optimal quality of life and vita\u00adlity and not just the absence of disease.\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>

\nYour body as a system\n<\/h3>
\nIn func\u00adtional medi\u00adcine, your body is viewed as an inter\u00adcon\u00adnected system, not as a coll\u00adec\u00adtion of indi\u00advi\u00addual organs. It is about trea\u00adting the entire system and getting to the bottom of the under\u00adlying causes of your complaints.

The focus is on the inter\u00adac\u00adtion between your body \u2014 inclu\u00adding meta\u00adbo\u00adlism, diet, routines \u2014 and your envi\u00adron\u00adment. This process creates a thera\u00adpeutic part\u00adner\u00adship between you and us.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

\nHow our environment
influences our health\n<\/h3>
\nModern life is very chal\u00adlen\u00adging. The envi\u00adron\u00admental influences we have created put a strain on our bodies and lead to a rapidly growing number of chronic life\u00adstyle dise\u00adases. These include cardio\u00advas\u00adcular dise\u00adases, cancer, diabetes, obesity, respi\u00adra\u00adtory dise\u00adases, depres\u00adsion and anxiety disor\u00adders.

Our bodies are not desi\u00adgned to be constantly stressed, surrounded by pollut\u00adants, suffe\u00adring from inflamm\u00ada\u00adtion and chronic infec\u00adtions, under\u00adsup\u00adplied with important nutri\u00adents and lacking sleep.

Our body reacts with maladapt\u00ada\u00adtions because this envi\u00adron\u00adment changes drama\u00adti\u00adcally and the orga\u00adnism has no time to adapt.

This mismatch between our genes and our modern lives is the main reason why chronic dise\u00adases have become the huge problem they are today. \n<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n

\nWhy we need functional medicine\n<\/h3>
\nThe current medical system is prima\u00adrily specia\u00adlized in emer\u00adgen\u00adcies. It focuses on the rapid diagnosis and treat\u00adment of acute problems such as appen\u00addi\u00adcitis or broken bones. There are specific, prescribed treat\u00adments such as medi\u00adca\u00adtion or surgery aimed at trea\u00adting the imme\u00addiate problem or symptom.

However, emer\u00adgency medi\u00adcine is not suitable for preven\u00adting or trea\u00adting complex, chronic dise\u00adases. In most cases, it does not take into account the unique genetic makeup of each indi\u00advi\u00addual or factors such as envi\u00adron\u00admental toxins and the aspects of today\u2019s life\u00adstyle that have a direct impact on the rise of chronic disease in modern Western society.

There is a huge discrepancy between scien\u00adtific rese\u00adarch and medical prac\u00adtice. It can take decades for new findings from basic rese\u00adarch to be incor\u00adpo\u00adrated into the medical treat\u00adment of chronic dise\u00adases. We don\u2019t want to wait that long.\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>
