What if the chronic medical issues that you're struggling with are just being treated at a surface level and the real cause of the illness or autoimmune condition lies much deeper?
The unfortunate reality is that traditional healthcare has forced us to accept medications and quick fixes that manage symptoms instead of resolving the root issue. Today's guest is someone who I trust dearly and has helped me significantly improve my own health and cognitive function.
Dr. Philip Oubre is my personal functional medicine doctor, a board-certified physician who helps patients uncover and heal the root causes of chronic illness. After training in conventional medicine, he discovered its limits firsthand and shifted his focus and career to functional medicine which has yielded tremendous results in helping people reverse chronic disease naturally through nutrition, detoxification, and lifestyle optimization.
In our conversation, Dr. Oubre outlines the six root causes of chronic illness, dispels some common myths of conventional medicine, and provides actionable steps to take full responsibility for your own healing. You'll learn how heavy metals, mold, toxins, and even emotional stress impact your body; why most doctors still get nutrition wrong; and what simple dietary shifts can dramatically improve your health and wellbeing.
