In this week’s episode, we discuss where ‘root cause’ medicine comes from and where things have gone wrong.
I share my insights for how treating the root cause can look like
Addressing the risk factors that set you up for a chronic condition
Treating co-morbidities to help improve your health status
Making changes to your lifestyle to reduce your future need for medication or the need for increased medication
Co-supporting long term medication prescriptions to help you get the most out of your prescription.
What root cause medicine isn’t is the relentless pursuit of the one thing that’s gone wrong in your life and health that, if you reverse it, will cause all your health problems to go away.
The inspiration for this episode came after a national news article about how Naturopathic Doctors in Canada are “not” a solution to the healthcare crisis. One of the things the article pointed out is that we search for the root cause, which is harmful. We break down that phrase, and when root cause medicine is important and valuable, and when to let the goal go.
