Dr. Elizabeth Boham, director of the Ultra Wellness Center, joins us to unravel the transformative power of functional medicine. Ever wondered what it takes to truly address the root causes of illness rather than just masking symptoms? Dr. Boham shares her compelling journey from conventional medicine to functional medicine, spurred by her personal struggle with breast cancer at the young age of 30. This episode promises to offer unique insights into how addressing the root causes of disease can lead to real, lasting wellness.
Functional medicine emphasizes a whole health approach, and we discuss the vital role of collaboration between various specialists. From the unexpected link between oral health and systemic diseases like dementia, to the critical importance of individualized dietary plans, Dr. Boham sheds light on the interconnectedness of our bodily systems. Through her own experiences and professional expertise, she helps dispel common misconceptions about what it means to eat healthily—highlighting the significance of dietary diversity and the impact of food sensitivities on overall health.
We also dive into comprehensive patient care, focusing on the importance of a detailed medical history and the often-overlooked role of oral health in systemic inflammation. Dr. Boham offers practical advice on managing stress, ensuring good sleep, and building a supportive network, all of which are foundational for a balanced health plan. This episode is packed with actionable insights, including the role of dentistry in reducing inflammation, the impact of environmental toxins, and practical tips to incorporate detox-friendly habits into your busy life. Tune in for a holistic approach to health that can transform your wellness journey.
