Chronic Diseases… Diabetes, Autoimmune Disorders, Heart Disease, Cancer, Arthritis, Neuro-Degenerative Diseases, Chronic Gut Disorders, and More are the primary problem for the majority of people and for the health care system.
Dr. Chatterjee says, “I can make Diabetes disappear.” Listen as he talks about real health care to address chronic problems.
Dr. Chatterjee is a British Nephrologist turned General Practitioner turned Functional Medicine / Lifestyle Medicine focused practitioner.
Much of the movement towards lifestyle / functional medicine has been talked about by Chiropractors for decades… really since chiropractic began.
Chronic Disease is ruining people’s lives and comes at a tremendous expense to our health care system.
The problem is multi-factorial, but essentially what people commonly do to treat these devastating chronic problems isn’t working.
The increasing number of people suffering from these chronic health problems bares this failure out.
It revolves around lifestyle changes, correcting nutritional and movement deficiencies while reducing our highly inflammatory lifestyle that we’ve accepted… and it’s making us sicker, gain weight, feel tired, develop chronic pain and chronic disease.
So many chronic diseases start with inflammation which if we continue down the same path becomes chronic inflammation.
We don’t develop these chronic health problems overnight.
These problems take years and often decades to develop.
In order to improve our nation’s health, Texarkana’s health and wellness, we have to change disease promoting factors.
It’s not that we’re at the mercy of our genes.
Our environment determines genetic expression, whether a gene is on or off.
Our lifestyle determines if and when we express our genes… and that’s the good news. It means we can change our fate and improve our health.
Medications can help symptoms for many people.
The thing is… what if it’s our lifestyle that caused the problem?
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not really your fault.
You are probably doing what virtually everyone else is doing in today’s fast paced, high stress society.
However, wouldn’t it make sense to address those lifestyle factors that are causing a chronic problem rather than take something to feel better without addressing the underlying cause.
This is why we work with our Texarkana patients on improving the factors that contribute to their health problems that brought them in to our Texarkana office.
Yes, we consider a musculoskeletal problem or a neuro-muscular problem a health problem – because these are health problems for far too many people in Texarkana and our nation. It doesn’t have to be this way for you or your family.
