The Power Of Food To Heal Everything From Autoimmune Disease To Traumatic Brain Injury

One of the reasons Functional Medicine is so transformative is that it recognizes disease does not occur in isolation. If one part of the body is compromised the entire body is thrown out of balance. SIBO, or small intestine bacterial overgrowth, is a great example of this. It rarely occurs on its own, and is often paired with a number of other issues, from neurological symptoms to migraines, arthritis, and more. When we focus on healing the gut in these instances, the entire body shifts for the better. This week on The Doctor’s Farmacy I’m joined by Dr. George Papanicolaou to talk about the Functional Medicine matrix as a framework for healing, as well as his own journey in overcoming a traumatic brain injury.
Dr. Papanicolaou is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Abington Memorial Hospital. Over time as the healthcare system made it harder for patients to receive personal care, Dr. Papanicolaou decided a change was needed. He began training in Functional Medicine through the Institute of Functional Medicine. In 2015, he established Cornerstone Personal Health-a practice dedicated entirely to Functional Medicine. In August 2017, I invited Dr. Papanicolaou to join The UltraWellness Center and we’ve been successfully helping people together ever since.
This episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy is brought to you by ButcherBox. Now through December 31, 2019, ButcherBox is offering listeners of the podcast 2 lbs of wild-caught Alaskan sockeye salmon and 4 grass-fed, grass-finished sirloin steaks for free in your first order PLUS $20 off your first box.

[@janetjohnson7136]

I believe he did cut him off on purpose, because he did not want the other Doctor giving out to much helpfull info. if the other Doctor had given the name of the test, then people would not have to go to them to get the test ran , they could do it themselves.

[@vickinelson2659]

Ten years ago, I was in an auto accident in which I received a TBI. I was a mess - aphasia, pain everywhere, and memory loss. It was only through diet that I healed. It took a few years (probably because we didn't figure out the diet part right away), but I did it. Thank you for sharing this message and spreading the word. You do incredible work.

Would you please be so kind as to share what your diet consists of now?

[@vickinelson2659]

@@bongiperez7565 Of course! I have colitis, so my body doesn't absorb vitamins the way it should. To get more nutrients, I drink a smoothie each day with berries, greens, celery, banana, along with flax, hemp, protein powder, yogurt, and turmeric (for pain). I take fish oil and a few other supplements. Green tea helps my energy and memory, and I try to eat 10-12 servings of fruits and veggies every day. An egg and sauerkraut in the morning (except on the weekends when we have almond pancakes and bacon, or buckwheat cereal). Good protein is a big deal, along with a daily indulgence of dark chocolate (a keto brand with only two grams of sugar per serving. Letting go of sugar has been a huge change in my life.) It's really a simple diet, with whole foods and easy meals - stir fries, chicken, fish - nothing fancy, just good food.

Very informative. However the majority of sickness is people who live in poverty. I do find it sad that to have access to functional medicine tests and all around help a person needs to be wealthy. Like in a comment below if you really want to help I pray you find a way to help those who live in poverty. They rarely have access to quality food or functional medicine. I live on disability, I receive $700 a month. I have a brain injury and need more help. I’ve done the paleo autoimmune diet yet I’m not improving so as much as I love watching these and so glad your spreading awareness I sit here feeling sad because if I had the money I would be in your office in a second. And my story is not uncommon. Yet thank you for the work your doing and putting out free content.

Curing the incurable, haemangioma on liver, hypothyroidism and ankylosing spondylitis... coz I said I can 😀 Water and herb tea and herbals for liver support, digestive enzymes pre and post. Lymphatic massage to clear Hep C treatment debris from "succesful" medication in 2011...while chemically lobotomised for 12 years... that triggered thyroid failure and bamboo spine. Pomegranate juice !! Tamarind in my juice of ginger, apple, celery, cucumber, carrot this morning and I pooped SO GOOD. I've started running...

Wow, I taught at Jeddito on the Hopi/Navajo reservation 20 + years ago. Don't hear of many others who worked with that specific population.

Please let your guests talk more. Isn’t it a big deal in Functional Medicine to listen more and talk less?

Hi, I've just listened to this video and found it amazing. I can relate to so many problems in your discussion and wondered if you can recommend a Functional Medicine Dr here in England UK. Much appreciated.
