Creating Customized Nutrition Programs Using Functional Testing
Special Guest: Dr. David Brady

An interview with David Brady, Author of Healthy Revolution: What You Really Need to Know to Stay Healthy in a Sick World.

Most tests performed at doctor's offices designed to discover pathology or sickness. They are excellent tools for figuring out if any bodily systems are diseased. Functional or integrative, tests are designed to identify imbalances and interactions within your body. Rather than wait for disease to strike, integrative physicians can identify and treat a functional imbalance before it becomes a real illness.

In this interview Dr. Brady describes how your doctor can use functional testing to provide a better and deeper insight into your health needs.

• Learn what you can do to finally find out what ails you.
• Find out why you’re not getting well.
• Understand when you need drug-based treatment and when you need to improve system function.
• Discover a way out of the labyrinth of food allergy tests and treatments.
• Learn how to identify fully credentialed integrative practitioners.
• Demystify the range of health options available to you.
• Learn why a food sensitivity may not be an allergy – and what to do about it.
• Come to know when you’re seeing a “take this for that” practitioner and how to  find one that can truly identify where your functions are breaking down.
• Understand how board-certification can both help and hinder a practitioner’s  expertise and practice.
• Find out why blood tests are not necessarily a complete diagnostic tool.
• Hear about why your standard-care physician may be able to relieve your symptoms, but not know how to make you well.
• Learn how to make use of the information available to you from functional systems testing.
• Discover your own power to identify what’s happening in your body.
• Gain new options for returning to vibrant health.
