Lifestyle Alternatives Programme for Hypertension and Diabetes Management
Functional medicine focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of diseases rather than simply treating symptoms. When it comes to diabetes, especially Type 2 diabetes, the functional medicine approach involves a comprehensive, personalised treatment plan that incorporates lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, stress management, and sometimes supplements or medications, all aimed at improving the body’s overall function and restoring balance. Here is the overview approach to our diabetes treatment:
1. Dietary Modifications
2. Insulin Sensitivity and Blood Sugar Regulation
3. Gut Health
4. Stress Reduction
5. Supplements and Nutrients
As Functional medicine practitioners, we recommend certain supplements to support insulin sensitivity and overall metabolic health:
6. Detoxification
7. Individualised Treatment
Our Well Wise Hub functional medicine approach to diabetes is highly personalised, considering the whole person—diet, lifestyle, genetics, environmental exposures, and mental health. By addressing the root causes of insulin resistance and focusing on overall health and wellness, we aim to help manage or even reverse Type 2 diabetes and prevent complications often associated with the disease.
In functional medicine, nutrition is central to promoting health and managing chronic conditions.
