Have you ever had a patient do everything right—take the meds, follow your nutrition advice—yet they’re still struggling with symptoms? Chronic issues like reflux, IBS, and fatigue aren’t always solved with a prescription. So what’s missing?
In this episode, I sit down with Shefaly Ravula, PA-C, founder of Precision Gut Health, to bridge the gap between conventional and functional medicine. We break down what’s science-backed, what’s pseudoscience, and how busy clinicians can incorporate functional nutrition without overcomplicating patient care.
Key takeaways:
If you’ve ever wondered whether functional medicine is just a rebrand of wellness trends—or if there’s real science behind it—this episode is for you.
