In this episode of Being Better Everyday Podcast, I am bringing on Melissa Mangan, MSN, CNP, from Minneapolis Integrative Medicine Center. Going the holistic health route in 2023 was the best thing I did for my health. We dive into the fascinating realm of integrative and functional medicine, contrasting it with conventional Western medical practices. We discuss why it's crucial to aim for optimal hormone levels rather than just settling for what's considered average, and we consider how hormonal imbalances can impact our overall well-being. I open up about the significant improvements in my own health after I tackled issues with my hormones, hashimotos, and iron levels.
Melissa highlights how health issues are often interrelated and underscores the value of having a care plan that's tailored to the individual. We also cover how to find functional medicine experts and share exciting news about the Minneapolis Integrative Medicine Center's growth, which is set to make integrative healthcare more widely available.
