“Before there is pathology, imbalance or dysfunction must be present. It may develop over a prolonged period, often with slow, but steadily increasing momentum. There is little taught in medical schools regarding the detection and correction of imbalances or dysfunctions. There is even less taught regarding the use of food as medicine. Typically, it is only after pathology presents that therapeutic action is taken. This is reactive. This is late. This occurs after some degree of damage or changes to physiology has occurred. Functional care is wellness. Functional care is the correction of imbalances and dysfunctions before irreversible disease takes hold.”
