What is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is a personalized, holistic approach to medicine that addresses diseases not just by symptoms, but by understanding their root causes. This approach, integrated with the scientific foundations of traditional medicine’s diagnostic and treatment protocols, thoroughly evaluates an individual’s genetic makeup, lifestyle, environmental influences, and biological processes.
At BariatrikLab’s Longevity Program, we specifically apply functional medicine to individuals who have undergone obesity surgery and those wishing to maintain or rebuild their metabolic health. Our goal is not just to treat the disease, but to ensure the sustainability of health.
Within the scope of functional medicine, we frequently address the following topics:
- Micronutrient Deficiencies and Vitamin-Mineral Balance
- Inflammation and Oxidative Stress Control
- Insulin Resistance, Metabolic Syndrome, and Diabetes Management
- Regulation of Gut Microbiota
- Sleep Quality, Hormonal Balance, and Biological Aging Process
- Detoxification Processes and Mitochondrial Support
- Functional analysis of genetic predispositions
Functional medicine is not only a treatment model but also a powerful strategy for the sustainability of health. It is an effective complementary approach for individuals seeking to maintain the metabolic success achieved through surgery, improve quality of life, and slow the aging process.
