At Brain Health D.C., we use Functional Biochemical and cellular health to address the root causes of chronic diseases. By evaluating genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors, we create personalized treatment plans. Functional Biochemical and cellular health is a model that seeks to promote wellness and helps to prevent, identify and address the root cause of diseases and not just the symptoms. Functional Biochemical and cellular health addresses the body as a whole connected network of systems and not a collection of independent organ systems. 

We are in the midst of a chronic disease epidemic. Chronic diseases are not self-limiting, meaning they do not heal by themselves. In fact, chronic diseases only worsen over time. Our current medical model is geared to treating the symptoms. Functional Biochemical and cellular health on the other hand asks different questions and looks to uncover the underlying cause. They may find one condition has many different causes and, likewise, one cause may result in many different conditions.

Through a patient-centered, system-oriented approach, functional biochemical and cellular health finds the physiological processes that are out of balance. This is accomplished by understanding the patient’s timeline and looking at the interactions between genetic, environmental, diet and lifestyle factors. A combination of laboratory testing and other diagnostic techniques may be used to aid in this process. By identifying the core clinical and physiological imbalances and supporting the expression of health, we can design and tailor treatments that supports the individual’s unique needs. This can be achieved through supplements, customized nutritional plans, detoxification programs, or stress-management techniques 

At Brain Health D.C. we use functional biochemical and cellular health approaches to empower patients to take accountability for their own health.  With this knowledge and education, we believe each individual can reach their greatest potential, attain vitality and live a healthier and happier life.
