Show Notes

Metabolic dysfunction is common in many communities and contributes to many of the most debilitating chronic diseases across the globe. The spectrum of metabolic function includes several points for intervention both before and after the diagnosis of conditions such as type 2 diabetes. The functional medicine approach to assessing and treating metabolic dysfunction involves a personalized approach to each patient, including understanding the root causes of each patient’s issues and developing individualized treatment plans to address those specific causes. Researchers recently proposed a system for subtyping type 2 diabetes cases that may aid clinicians with pattern recognition and lead to therapeutic plans that are more tailored to each diabetes patient. On this episode of Pathways to Well-Being, we welcome Dr. Yousef Elyaman to discuss the functional medicine approach to metabolic health and how subtyping of diabetes might help clinicians identify and treat patients with metabolic dysfunction.
