Episode 74: Practitioner Spotlight: Dr. Dave Boynton on Why Hypoglycemia Destroys Healing, Neurological Exams Save Lives & Cookie-Cutter Protocols Don't Work

In this Practitioner Spotlight, Dr. Dave Boyton—a Cincinnati-based functional medicine specialist—shares how he transformed his practice by integrating neurological assessment with functional medicine. After his wife was misdiagnosed with multiple autoimmune conditions, Dr. Boynton dove deep into functional medicine and discovered what most practitioners miss: the neurological component.Dr. Boyton reveals why hypoglycemia isn't just "getting hangry"—it's frontal lobe dysfunction that sabotages healing. He explains why most functional medicine exams are inadequate, how he turned his intake into a "show and tell" experience that builds patient confidence, and why cookie-cutter protocols fail chronically ill patients.To become a Certified Functional Medicine practitioner, visit https://kharrazianinstitute.com/⁠.
