Are Thyroid Issues, Hidden Infections, Or Poor Sleep At The Root Of Your Mystery Symptoms?

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, InsideTracker, and
Paleovalley. My job as a Functional Medicine doctor is to be a
medical detective—to investigate and address the root causes of
problems (not just the symptoms),  help people fix the
underlying problems that cause their symptoms, and recreate balance
in the whole system. Rather than ask “what drug should I use to
treat the symptom?” I ask “what is causing the symptom in the first
place?” In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Elizabeth Boham, Dr.
Steven Phillips and Dana Parish, and Dhru Purohit about why it’s
important to thoroughly investigate to get to the root cause of
symptoms. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is a physician and nutritionist who
practices Functional Medicine at The UltraWellness Center in Lenox,
MA. Through her practice and lecturing she has helped thousands of
people achieve their goals of optimum health and wellness. She
witnesses the power of nutrition every day in her practice and is
committed to training other physicians to utilize nutrition in
healing. Dr. Steven Phillips is a renowned, Yale-trained physician,
international lecturer, and media go-to expert. Well-published in
the medical literature, he has treated over 20,000 patients with
complex, chronic illness from nearly 20 countries. Dr. Phillips
experienced firsthand the nightmare of an undiagnosed, serious
infection after nearly dying from his own mystery illness. He
figured out how to save his own life when 25 doctors could not.
Dana Parish developed Lyme-induced heart failure as a result of
being improperly diagnosed by some of the “top” doctors in the
country—and had her life saved by Dr. Phillips. A chart-topping
Sony/ATV singer/songwriter who has written songs for artists like
Celine Dion and Idina Menzel, she has become a major voice in the
world of chronic illness. Her popular column on Huffington Post has
been read by more than one million people globally. Dhru Purohit is
a podcast host, serial entrepreneur, and investor in the health and
wellness industry. His podcast, The Dhru Purohit Podcast, is a
top-50 global health podcast with over 30 million unique downloads.
His interviews focus on the inner workings of the brain and the
body and feature the brightest minds in wellness, medicine, and
mindset. This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health,
