Functional Medicine Demystified: A Practical Everyday Approach

Have you ever been told your lab tests are “normal”… but you still feel tired, foggy, or just not yourself? In this kickoff episode of Your Everyday Functional Medicine, Dr. Paulo Dennis Son shares why those symptoms aren’t random annoyances—they’re clues your body leaves behind.

Drawing on over 30 years as a physical therapist, Paulo introduces the functional medicine approach: investigating patterns before they turn into disease. He explains how your body works like a living chemistry lab, with your gut microbiome, sleep, nutrition, and stress all shaping your health.

Learn how subtle signs like fatigue, brain fog, cravings, or skin changes can reveal deeper imbalances—and how functional medicine looks at the root causes instead of waiting for the fire alarm to ring.

This episode sets the stage for the journey ahead: connecting the dots between gut and brain, hormones and liver, stress and immunity. Think of it as the first step in solving the mystery of your health.
