Dr. Will Cole: Functional Medicine and Getting to the Root of Disease

In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I speak with Dr. Will Cole, a health and wellness trailblazer who operates one of the first global functional medicine telehealth practices. Named one of the top 50 functional and integrative doctors in the nation, Dr. Cole specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing a functional medicine approach for thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and brain problems.   Together, we dive into the distinct differences between functional and conventional medicine, emphasizing the critical need for precision in lab result interpretation to effectively address underlying health issues. He also tackles the growing epidemic of autoimmune diseases, connecting it to environmental influences and lifestyle choices in what he describes as the "age of autoimmune." Our conversation further explores the significant role of intuition and gut feelings on one’s health journey, and the critical need for a holistic strategy that incorporates diet modifications, lifestyle changes, and cutting-edge diagnostics to empower individuals to take control of their health.   This episode is more than just a deep dive into functional medicine; it's packed with practical advice, marrying age-old wisdom with contemporary scientific insights to guide you toward a healthier, more balanced lifestyle.
