- Twenty to thirty percent of patients visit their primary care physician with the chief complaint of fatigue; they're tired all the time and want to feel better. Unfortunately, conventional medicine rarely allows for physicians to spend enough time with patients to explore the many reasons someone might be experiencing fatigue. Functional Medicine, on the other hand, uses an extensive personal history to look at a patient’s patterns over his or her entire lifetime and connect the dots.
In this episode, Dr. Hyman sits down with Dr. Elizabeth Boham to discuss the common drivers of fatigue and the Functional Medicine approach to treating it.
Learn more about The UltraWellness Center’s upcoming “Eliminate To Feel Great” program discussed in this episode at www.ultrawellnesscenter.com/2...
Elizabeth Boham is a physician and nutritionist who practices functional medicine at The UltraWellness Center in Lenox, MA. Through her practice and lecturing she has helped thousands of people achieve their goals of optimum health and wellness. She witnesses the power of nutrition every day in her practice and is committed to training other physicians to utilize nutrition in healing. Dr. Boham has contributed to many articles and wrote the latest chapter on Obesity for the Rankel Textbook of Family Medicine. She is part of the faculty of the Institute for Functional Medicine and has been featured on the Dr. Oz show and in a variety of publications and media including Huffington Post, The Chalkboard Magazine, and Experience Life. Her DVD Breast Wellness: Tools to Prevent and Heal from Breast Cancer explores the functional medicine approach to keeping your breasts and whole body well

The future of medicine belongs to those that practice functional medicine.
It will be!
@@Brzypoint sure, whatever you say.
Jon Jon you must be one of those conventional doctors that were murdering people with ventilators for the 39k kickback...where do you think the future of medicine is smart guy?? If you think the current medical model is working, you need a re-examination...
@@Brzypoint you're mistaking doctors with medicine(pills), medicine works, doctors on the other hand as with humans in general, some are garbage, most are average, only some are good.
Meds are only gonna get better. Doctors on the other hands are now more salesman then doctors, like they used to be 50 years ago.
@@jonjon3829 God forbid we could have healthy clean food and heal our guts naturally vs. relying on some BS patented product that is only making big pharma rich...You do you...I'll do me...I'll stick to what our ancestors did for thousands of years... why TREAT cancer when you can avoid it all together??? Big Pharma IS the cancer that needs to be eliminated...and they will be!
Dr. Hyman is a positive doctor. Wish more doctors were like him.
I don't like how she said we don't blame doctors because they have a short time to find the problem. Well I do because Healthcare is expensive!!!!
Right, they want all of the credit and none of the blame.
Mark We have heard your story so many times. Let your guest get her message across!
I slept a lot as a child, teenager and most of my adult life. Yes, nutrition BUT so much of it was from unresolved emotional trauma. I could not remember a lot of my childhood and there was a reason for that.
This resonates with me, how have you approached dealing with it, especially when you don't have much memory of childhood?
@@callmedeno I became a hypnosis practitioner and have resolved many issues from sessions. I also ask questions when I am dreaming or just before I go to bed. Our subconscious mind, where our memories are from, are very active at night. It is the same place you go during hypnosis. And I take lots of different self help courses along the way to process anything that comes up. I am currently taking attachment styles with Brianna McWilliams and Thais Gibson, The Personal Development School here on youtube. Look for somatic experiencing as well because your body reacts to the memories in your mind. Repressed memories can make you feel unwell. Sending you lots of healing energy. xoxoxo
Same here, Cavelle 👍
We eat from emotions
@@brentbeatty4171 and cravings can be what we are missing in our body from a nutrition standpoint. If we are under stress we are going to burn through calories and deplete our body of nutrients.

#HymanStopInterrupting
Always love listening to Dr. Boham. Thank you 🙏
Causes-
1. Nutritional deficiencies
2. Genetic variations
3. Digestion variations
4. Toxins
I really love all of these podcasts! It opens my eyes to how unique we all are. I'm looking into seeing a functional medicine doctor soon and I hope they care enough to find my issues.
$$$ they cost more so they dont take insurance. So they care ..if you pay. But are there exceptions?
Thanks , I'm sharing with everyone
Thank you so much Dr Hyman for providing us with detailed explanation of every relevant health issue you are a godsend !!!🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Drs for your incredibly informative information.
Mark you are great, but you are interupting way too often
He always does :( and he likes to talk about himself a lot. Otherwise I like his videos as well
Same exact thought I had! Still love what he’s doing for the community
Yesss he looks like he is the guest
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Wish functional medicine was more affordable & accessible. All the functional medicine doctors I have called do not accept insurance for the func med part of their services. Instead, they charge a concierge’s fee.
Also, the worst response i got from a doctor when i told her, “I am consistently tired” was…..”we’re ALL tired!” with a shrug of her shoulders. Most doctors out there don’t “hear” their patients.
His voice overpowered what she was saying. I wish he had just let her talk.
I agree. He always takes over the interview when he agrees with what the person is saying. He gets over excited
He interrupts so much that makes it hard to follow the hosts line of thought. 😢
I hope he reads this. I have only watched a few of his videos and it is so frustrating to listen to the constant interruptions and losing vital information in the process
Yes, I have also noticed this with other hosts. It's almost like as if the host has to have the last word and demo that they are more knowledgeable. 🙄🙄
He is a great dr but I think he is still honing his interview skills
Completely agree. He just hijacked the MTHFR explanation which she could have done well. I've seen this feedback many times but he doesn't seem to want to change. Please let your guest talk!
He is adding it , he might interupting but all his nteruption is so helpful
I'll tell you why because everything we do is completely unnatural. What we eat, how we behave, the things we are conditioned to do and say every day. It is exhausting to keep up with the expectations of modern society (social media)
I'm Anxious, most of the time, all of my life. this is why i am tired all the time, lending to depression.
Check out Wim Hof
Thanks to all the commenters for the heads-up. Interviewers interrupting guests annoys the heck out of me, so I don't bother watching videos where that happens. Saved me 30+ minutes of frustration.
It really wasn't bad IMO. He excitedly joined in. 🤷♀️
It's not an interview. It's a conversation.
We need more functional medicine! I‘ve had severe fatigue issues for many years and none of the doctors I went to see ever talked about food!, Finally an alternative therapist diagnosed a gluten and dairy intolerance, and my life has improved so much since.
Yes, I just quit cheese and immediately felt a lot better. This is in addition to quitting gluten years ago. Certain blood types have low acid. A and AB. And can't digest dairy and gluten well. Types O and B have stronger stomach acid.
Awsome.... I’m posting this on my FB page
Food is medicine! Learn much from this video.
Good healthy diet and exercise are definitely key 🔑
Such in-depth research and treatment over an extended period - great, if you can afford it! Must have cost a fortune... beyond the average pocket however desirable to get it.
I read The Mood Cure by Julia Ross years ago. This clued me in to the importance of amino acids and neurotransmitters for both physial and mental health. When i quit gluten I felt better, because it was preventing me absorbing nutrients. I dont have the stomach acid to digest gluten 😃. Back then i also read Eat Right for your Blood Type and thats where i read that blood tpes carry different levels of stomach acid. A and ABs have low stomach acid and can't digest gluten well.
IMO I don't find Mark to be interuptive but rather fell that he iss supporting Elizabeths ideas and contributing to the conversation. It isn't intrusive, he always waits for a her to make a point before embellishing it in a positive way.
Totally agree.
Dr Hyman I don’t hear much about doctors looking into patients iron levels, taking a iron panel and seeing how that needs to be at optimal levels. Including raising Ferritin levels. Could you please address these with the fatigue message?! Thank you for consideration and all the great information you bring to us! 😊
I love my provigil!!!
Provigil gives me enough energy to take a shower or a short walk. Heart is fine so are lungs. Autoimmune issues are draining.
It seems a lot of people and doctors are looking for the easy answer, i.e., some pill to cure everything. Nutrition isn't the answer to everything, but surely we should start with cleaning up our diets.
This! Eat better food and adopt intermittent fasting as a lifestyle to give your body (especially digestive system) a chance to heal
Jody Foster look-a-like
Great info
Please share what a person can do....please make it more simple
Only glad and best wishes for Mark's recovery. It's important though, especially for healthcare providers, to understand that mercury toxicity (and so many other diagnoses) is _not_ synonymous with the horribly-named Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Symptom overlaps? Of course. Synonymous? No.
Recommended dr. In Austin Texas?
Very valuable information Doctors🙏❤️. Will post at our blog selfhelpchampion
I tried to stop refined foods, sugar and gluten and with CFS I felt terrible. Headaches, flu like symptoms. What would you suggest I do please?
Dr Sarah Myhill ( in the UK) believes chronic fatigue relates to an ability to metabolize glucose as an energy source. Her protocol is to adopt a ketogenic diet. She has a book "Paleo Keto" for anybody interested. She has a number of videos on TH-cam too.
When you’re sick your immune system turns on, when it’s turned on your body slows down because its focusing it’s energy where it needs to be in order to heal you. When you eat things that make you sick the same thing is triggered, that is why you get lazy after a meal. Food should NEVER make you feel lazy, it should be the complete opposite, we should eat for energy,
@@yeseniarobles4289 Carbs release serotonin that is nature's tranquiliser. People eat to calm themselves as much as anthing...which is why going low carb can make people edgy at first because they aren't getting the soothing effect of the carbs. Energy in the form of calories is not the same as feeling energized. You could drink a gallon of strong coffee and feel energized but you've not really consumed any energy ( in the form of calories). Conversely you could eat a ton of pasta and simply want to sleep.
plantagenant then how about people from other countries who’s diet consist of mainly pasta and they look pretty healthy? What happens there?
@@yeseniarobles4289 I'm not arguing for a low carb or high carb diet. I'm a pragmatist. If it works for you, it works. I mentioned Dr Myhill because she specifically works with chronic fatigue sufferers. Her thesis is that the mitochondria in those people are not accessing energy generated by glucose. There are others who support her ideas. Many people on Keto diets, once adapted, mention improved and long lasting energy. As far as high carb diets, maybe they work in the absence of high corn syprup drinks, high oxidised vegetable oils and a host of other factors that might induce insulin resistance.
plantagenant you did mention that chronic fatigue related to an inability to metabolize glucose according to this doctor, did this doctor explain exactly how or she just talks about changing the diet?
It seems like Dr. Hyman had experienced every possible condition himself, since he can relate to everything: gut issues, chronic fatigue, mercury poisoning, colitis and so on
Lyme too. But why they charge so much just baffles me
What’s the website for virtual consultations?
If l filter water thru Brita should l use trace minerals?
How to fix microbiome? Gut?
Wow
Love it, natural organic health
Okay,
You're work is great but come on 5k Usd for a consultation. This is out of reach for 95% of the population
I thought he said $500, not $5k
@@eucalyptustrees but even 500$ is out of reach for maybe 70% at least of the population I’m afraid.
All medicine should be functional medicine. Maybe it (medicine) and we would function better.
No, it clearly delineates between functional and dysfunctional. Not all medicine is functional.
It's foolish to think we can exists in a world without conventional medicine. Urgent situations like broken bones, trauma from a car accident, a sudden heart attack or stroke, and infections require immediate conventional care. Functional medicine is ill-equipped to address emergency conditions.
@@DennisBolanos Fair point.
I like her
Hi Dr Hyman, I know Vit D levels can also be an issue? What do you recommend as good Vit D level? I know what doctors say, but...??
Sit in the sun 15 minutes every few days to get your vitamin D. Vitamin D is stored in the body and used when needed.
There was another guest on the show who said 40-50 vitamin serum levels is ideal th-cam.com/video/v1Wb9GADwY8/w-d-xo.html
Sugar causing me health problems, even fruits too.
Does it have ANYTHING to do with a species who's super ABILITY is cooperation, choosing to play a meta roleplaying game en masse, the equivalent of Monopoly meets Dungeons and Dragons where you don't "win" the game of economy by being sincere and vulnerable, so we live in literal do or die competition with each other?

Where can you find a practitioner of functional medicine near you?
Took edta 3 days in a row and got crazy sick head spinning and power puking all day! Is this a good sign of heavy metals and or mold toxins???
Dude ask a question, chill n wait for full unswers, shame!
Thank you once again Dr Omole on TH-cam for this information. Since following you (for some years now), my kidney stage results has decrease from stage 3 to stage 1. You saved me from dialysis. Thank you and please keep the videos coming!! God Bless..
I wonder who is interviewing whom.
One key consideration i encountered with functional medicine. My IFM physician did uncover various root causes of fatigue. However has been unable to fix them. So what's the point then?
Unfortunately, not terribly uncommon regardless of MD or ND credential. Being chronically fatigued is so common (as this discussion starts out saying) and can be part of very complex scenarios. For those who find quick resolution with dietary adjustments or the lucky ID of, say, mercury toxicity, splendid! And congrats! For many others, it is not nearly so straightforward. There is a good reason why the groups Millions Missing and Open Medicine Foundation (etc) exist.
@@SignsAllAround thanks for the two contacts!
@@t-bone6467 You bet, glad that is useful to you. Hummingbirds' Foundation for M.E. is another among many more.
Do you guys recommend any Dr in the Bay Area (California).?
Look up physicians on IFM website. Institute of Functional Medicine.

Thank you 🙏
@@RGTomoenage11 you're welcome. good luck with your health issues. Take care.
What would you advise someone to do that lives in a country where "functional medicine" is simply not available? Is their a list of tests they can look into getting and then send over seas to have someone review?
Is naturopathic medicine available is your area? If so it's essentially the same thing, just with a different credential (ND vs MD, at least in the States).
@@SignsAllAround I live in China. I have yet to find any "natural" doctor that was not telling me about how I needed to drink hot water and keeps my neck warm. I exaggerate a bit but everyone here thinks something like fasting is going to kill you still.
@@PeopleDoingStuff I hear you :) And I agree that finding a truly competent medical provider, regardless of credential, can be quite the challenge, especially if you're dealing with a chronic complex situation. I do think traditional Chinese medicine has a lot to offer, but again it's about finding the right practitioner for you. (And of course I have no knowledge of the state of TCM in China these days.) In any case, wishing you all the best!
your show will be more powerful if you let your guest complete thgouts. constant interruption make both your good thoughts fragmented and hard to follow. thx for the show.
Why does he invited her if he wants to talk all the program?
Este lote of greens
Acid reflux is often caused by low digestive acid in the stomach, low HCL. I cured my acid reflux forever by taking an HCL supplement before eating. It works! Now I only need it occasionally, like once a month
Why dont you try flouride chemtrails chemtrails in the food vaccines and many more.
As ideal as this sounds, it will not be accepted by the medical community as a whole. When you treat more patients over shorter visits, you earn more money. Also, there are not enough physicians in this world to provide functional medicine to everyone.
If everyone in the world knew about functional medicine, less people would need doctors in the first place. We could prevent people from developing disease and we could fix the root cause and actually cure chronic disease. There would be less money in medicine. So the change won't come from the medical industry. The health revolution has to come from the people, and with all the information now available on the internet, I think this will be possible.
Kay Oss: exactly!
Should the cause of chronic fatigue be sought in physical medicine ... or perhaps on a spiritual level?
Holistic medicine without a spiritual aspect is an oxymoron of zero value.
You are similar to those who put a reference about the Neanderthals diet in the sentence which ends with the phrase "... but thanks God "

It's interesting but like everything that's connected with American health care system it's only for the rich ....tell me how much would a consultation cost for all the tests you would need at this faculty, I live in the UK but in my personal experience no doctor going to spend this amount of time on you,a 6 minute consultation is asking.
Agree!
Please, don't interrupt your guests. It's very unpleasant to watch.

There is so much contradiction of theorys, on these channel. Every presenter have his own truth. Get together and find one right theory already... man...
