Today we’re talking about an evolution in medicine.

You’ve heard me talk about naturopathic and functional medicine and getting to the root cause of your skin and other health issues, and my guest today shares how you may be able to have greater access to this kind of medicine now and even in the future.

My guest today is James Maskell. James has spent the past decade sparking debate and encouraging a shift toward a wellness-centered, functional medicine model. To that end, he created Functional Forum, the world’s largest integrative medicine conference with record-setting participation online and growing physician communities around the world. He’s also the founder of the Evolution of Medicine, a community e-commerce platform which provides resources, tools, and services, making it easier and more affordable for conventional doctors to embark on a new way of managing healthcare.

James has been featured on TEDMED, Huffpost Live, TEDx and more, and is a contributor to Huffington Post, KevinMD, thedoctorblog and MindBodyGreen.  He serves on the faculty of George Washington University’s Metabolic Medicine Institute, and speaks regularly on the integrative medicine conference circuit. He lives in Venice Beach, California with his wife and daughter. On today’s podcast James talks about the evolution of medicine and what is happening to the shift medicine in the U.S. to a more integrative and community-based approach.

Many of you ask me if I see medicine in our country changing so I’m exciting to share this interview with you today.
