Have you seen doctor after doctor and your health issue still is not resolved? Has your doctor just put a bandaid over your symptom without determining the root cause? If so, maybe seeing a functional medicine doctor is right for you! In this episode of Coffee & Kettlebells, Dr. John Bartemus explains the different approaches between functional medicine versus mainstream medicine and how one buys you health and the other just buys you time.  Highlights:  Medication are band aids for your symptoms and doesn’t address the root cause of the symptom.  Functional medicine treats a patient whereas traditional medicine treats a symptom   Diseases manifest differently and look differently in each person Diets should be specific to the individual  Following a specific protocol lead to assumptions  Find a function medicine doctor near you:  IFM.org Find more from Dr. Bartemus  Website YouTube For daily fitness, nutrition and life inspiration, as well as glimpses into my daily life, follow me on Instagram and Facebook! @morgan.a.kline  Coffee & Kettlebells  Check out Burn Boot Camp:  Website: burnbootcamp.com Facebook: Burn Boot Camp  Instagram: @burnbootcamp
