Frequently Asked Questions
What is the functional medicine approach to treating anorexia?
The functional medicine approach focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of anorexia, such as hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and neurological dysfunction, through personalised and holistic care plans.
Can functional medicine address coexisting conditions like anxiety or depression?
Yes, functional medicine targets interconnected systems, helping to address conditions like anxiety, depression, and gut-brain imbalances that often accompany anorexia.
How does functional medicine differ from traditional anorexia treatments?
Unlike traditional treatments that often focus on weight restoration, functional medicine takes a systems-based approach to treat the underlying physical, emotional, and neurological factors driving the disorder.
Are advanced lab tests used in functional medicine for anorexia treatment?
Yes, functional medicine often uses lab tests to assess factors such as nutrient levels, hormone balance, and gut health to develop tailored treatment plans.
What role does nutrition play in functional medicine for anorexia?
Nutrition is central to functional medicine, with personalised dietary plans aimed at correcting nutrient deficiencies, supporting brain health, and restoring overall balance to the body.
How long does recovery take with the functional medicine approach?
Recovery timelines vary based on individual needs, but functional medicine aims for sustainable, long-term healing rather than quick fixes, with progress measured over weeks to months.
