14D. The Epidemic of Diabesity: Functional Medicine Approaches to Treatment, Recovery, and Prevention
نویسنده
چکیده
This brief presentation will offer a view of obesity and diabetes from a functional medicine approach. It will include the use of the Functional Medicine Matrix Model, the GO.TO.IT operating system, and the clinical timeline. Assessing pre-diabetes, diabetes, and obesity must include an evaluation of digestive function and nutritional status , the role of inflammation and insulin resistance, and the consideration of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) as a driver, as well as the relationship to mitochondrial energy production. This presentation will use a case-based format to highlight the unique Functional Medicine approach to assessing the root cause(s) of obesity and diabetes, as well as demonstrating appropriate treatment modalities.

متن کاملThe effect of ubiquinone on functional recovery and morphometric indices of sciatic nerve regeneration
A common cause of peripheral nerve injury is trauma. The positive effect of antioxidants on the improvement of nerve regeneration has currently become a focus of attention. In this experiment, the effect of intraperitoneal administration of ubiquinone (CoQ10) on an acute experimentally sciatic nerve crush was studied in a rat model. Forty-five male Wistar rats, weighing between 160-180 g were u...

Objective(s): The beneficial outcomes of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) treatment on functional recovery following stroke has been well established. Furthermore, 5-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors have also been shown to increase neuronal survival and promote the movement of BMSCs towards the sites of inflammation. However, the precise mechani...
