Podcast summary

 

In this episode of Wellness Connection MD, Dr. McMinn take  a deep dive into  the root causes of disease and how an understanding of these root causes can be used as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool as a part of a functional medicine approach to a patient.

Think about your own health, or if you are a provider then think about the patient in front of you, then keep asking the question "What is the underlying root cause of the problem."   Then use the list of root causes outlined in this podcast to help you come up with the answers. I call this the "why" approach to medicine. This approach may help you better understand the problem, and thus come up with more effective solutions. 

Along the way, Dr McMinn also provides some insights and practical solutoins pertaining to each of these root causes of diseae. 

At the end he summarizes all of these into the four fundmental causes of disease.  It is where these four factors come together that we see disease emerge.
