Are you in Montgomery, Alabama, or anywhere across the country, and searching for answers beyond conventional healthcare? Dr. West, a leading expert in Functional Medicine, is dedicated to helping you understand why you feel unwell and guiding you toward true, lasting wellness. Dr. West not only sees patients around the country via video consultations but also educates them about Functional Medicine, empowering them to take control of their health journey.
What is Functional Medicine? Your Path to Root-Cause Healing
Functional Medicine isn't just a buzzword; it's a revolutionary, science-based approach that views your body as an interconnected system. Instead of simply treating symptoms, Dr. West specializes in supporting your body’s natural healing processes by addressing underlying imbalances related to chemical, physical, and emotional stress. His approach focuses on identifying root causes to help patients restore balance, improve function, and achieve lasting wellness.
This means moving beyond a "pill for every ill" mentality. Dr. West works to understand your unique biochemistry, genetics, and lifestyle factors that contribute to chronic conditions like persistent fatigue, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, and more.
Beyond the Scale: The Hidden Impact of Obesogens
When it comes to weight and metabolic health, many focus solely on diet and exercise. While crucial, Dr. West's functional medicine approach delves deeper, exploring factors like obesogens.
What are Obesogens? These are chemical compounds, often found in our environment (plastics, pesticides, certain personal care products), that can disrupt our hormones and metabolism. They can potentially contribute to weight gain and difficulty losing weight, even with diligent diet and exercise. Obesogens can interfere with fat cell development, alter appetite regulation, and impact how our bodies store and burn fat.
Dr. West helps patients identify potential exposure to obesogens and develops strategies to minimize their impact, supporting the body's natural detoxification pathways. Addressing these hidden factors is a key part of achieving lasting wellness and overcoming stubborn health plateaus.
Reclaim Your Energy: Addressing Chronic Fatigue with a Root-Cause Approach
Another common challenge where Functional Medicine shines is chronic fatigue. It's more than just feeling tired; it's a debilitating exhaustion that impacts every aspect of life. Traditional medicine often struggles to pinpoint a single cause, but Dr. West's approach systematically investigates potential underlying factors such as:
Mitochondrial dysfunction: Your cells' energy factories aren't working efficiently.
Gut imbalances: An unhealthy microbiome can impact nutrient absorption and produce toxins.
Hormonal disruptions: Adrenal fatigue, thyroid issues, or sex hormone imbalances.
Chronic infections or inflammation: Persistent low-grade inflammation drains energy.
Nutrient deficiencies: Lack of essential vitamins and minerals.
By identifying and addressing these root causes, Dr. West empowers patients to reclaim their energy and vitality, moving beyond exhaustion to a state of optimal function.
