Functional Medicine Delhi

Welcome to Functional Medicine Delhi

Decades of practicing medicine have led me on a journey to ever-deepening discoveries of the root causes of both wellness and disease. The question has always been for me, and I ask this now of you; exactly what nutritional deficiency, toxin, metabolic defect, infection, allergy, neurotransmitter or hormonal imbalance, psycho-emotional conflict, and/or genetic predisposition do I/you NOT want to know about, that could be contributing to or causing your symptoms and problems? For me the answer has always been; that I want to know about everyone that I can test for and address rationally, and this is why I routinely test for those risk factors and spend a great deal of time piecing together the unique biochemistry of each patient. I am not comfortable with not knowing and guessing and I am not satisfied until I can find the answers. My faith in science compels me to believe that medical and psychiatric disorders “don’t just happen,” that magical forces don’t make people sick, and that causes for many disorders can be found if our technology is up to the task and I can be diligent enough to find the answers.

My motto has always been, “If you don’t test, you’ve guessed.” Decades into this journey, I now find it hard to imagine how many chronic medical or psychiatric disorders could not be eliminated or at least significantly modified, if one embarks on a thorough search through 1000 of potentially causal nutritional, immune, infectious, allergic, psycho-emotional, metabolic, energetic, hormonal and genetic risk factors, followed by precisely targeted treatments designed to address each risk factor. It does not matter what other kind of healthcare treatment you use, integrative, holistic, psychotherapeutic, or conventional, or what kind of medical or psychiatric challenge you face. Finding and correcting the root molecular causes can only improve your outcomes.

Insulin

Insulin is a key hormone involved in blood sugar regulation and fat storage. High insulin levels, often seen in insulin resistance, can promote fat accumulation and hinder fat breakdown, contributing to obesity.

Thyroid Hormones

Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) regulate metabolism by influencing energy expenditure and nutrient utilization. Hypothyroidism (low thyroid function) can slow down metabolism, leading to weight gain and difficulty losing weight.

Steroid Hormones

Steroid hormones, including cortisol (a stress hormone) and sex hormones (like estrogen and testosterone), can impact body composition and fat distribution.

Leptin and Ghrelin

Leptin is a hormone that regulates appetite and energy expenditure by signaling feelings of fullness. In obesity, leptin resistance can occur, leading to decreased sensitivity to leptin's satiety signals.

Neurotransmitters and Stress

Stress can disrupt neurotransmitter balance, affecting mood, appetite, and behavior.

Implications for Mental Health and Obesity

The interplay between hormones, neurotransmitters, and mental health is complex.
