Dr. Grija explains how functional medicine takes a whole-body approach, looking at everything from genetics, to nutrition, to gut health. She explains fascinating new tests like nutrigenetic testing which provides personalized nutrition and lifestyle plans based on a person's genes.
Some key highlights from our conversation:
- Why Dr. Grija made the switch from traditional medicine to functional medicine after seeing amazing results in her own health

- The importance of understanding how your genes affect the way you metabolize food, vitamins, toxins etc.
