Functional Diagnostic Nutrition offers a comprehensive approach to tackling IBS and IBD symptoms by identifying physiological root factors through specialized testing and holistic interventions. This episode explores the differences between conventional nutrition approaches and functional medicine methodologies, highlighting why insurance typically doesn't cover this type of work and how the DRESS method helps restore metabolic balance.

• Different training backgrounds between registered dietitians and functionally trained nutrition practitioners
• How conventional medicine connects to industry interests including big agriculture, pharmaceutical companies, and insurance networks
• The concept of "metabolic chaos" as a way to understand escalating, complex symptoms
• Using the DRESS method (Diet, Rest, Exercise, Stress reduction, Supplementation) to address root causes
• Why functional testing often reveals answers conventional medicine misses
• How innate intelligence (similar to qi or prana) governs our body's complex operating system
• The validation clients experience when seeing direct correlations between test results and symptoms
