Functional Medicine: Uncovering the Root Causes of Disease with Dr. Leke Asong

In functional medicine, genetics, diet, lifestyle, and environment are taken into consideration, along with their interaction with the various body systems. A natural state of equilibrium or balance is restored to the body by identifying and treating its root cause.
Picture a healthcare approach that treats you as a whole person, not just a collection of symptoms. In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles chats with Dr. Leke Asong, a seasoned NHS General Practitioner and Functional Medicine Doctor from the UK. Dr. Asong brings his unique perspective on functional medicine, an approach that digs deep to find the root causes of disease by considering genetics, diet, lifestyle, and environment.
This conversation is a goldmine for anyone looking to understand how interconnected our body's systems truly are. You'll hear about Dr. Asong's personal journey through health struggles and how it led him to functional medicine. They discuss the pivotal role of food as medicine, the fascinating gut-brain connection, and effective stress management techniques. Dr. Asong also shares practical tips on using supplements and nutrients to boost health and well-being.
If you're curious about how to achieve balance and optimal health by addressing the root causes rather than just symptoms, this episode is a must-listen. Valeria and Dr. Asong make complex concepts easy to grasp, offering valuable insights that can help you take control of your health journey.
