What is functional medicine?

Functional medicine is a game-changing area of medicine with the potential to fully heal damaged tissues and organs, offering solutions and hope for people who have conditions that today are beyond repair.

The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine defines Anti-Aging Medicine as: The exploration and application of innovative diagnostics and therapeutic interventions that aim to detect, prevent, and treat aging related diseases.

The medical industry in this country is trained to treat disease once it has occurred (reactive), rather than to help prevent the process before it starts (prevention).

Inflammatory processes start breaking down our pathways, depleting our enzymes and aging ourselves from the inside out and we only realize the ailments once they have been present for quite sometime.

At Entrada Medical Group make it our goal to prevent those diseases from ever developing in the first place.

FAQs

An apple a day keeps the doctor away

Balancing nutrient deficiencies is essential to supporting your overall health, energy, and hormone regulation.

Vitamins and supplements can play a critical role in rebalancing the body, and restoring optimal levels of nutrients, enzymes, and neurotransmitters that keep your systems functioning at their best.

The food choices available to most of us today often lack the nutritional density our bodies need. That’s why targeted supplementation is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessary part of comprehensive wellness.

Functional medicine treatments & therapies.

  • Hormones that are identical in molecular structure to the hormones we make in our bodies. They are not found in this form in nature but are made, or synthesized, from a plant chemically extracted from yams and soy.

    Bioidentical estrogens are 17 beta-estradiol, estrone, and estriol. Bioidentical progesterone is simply progesterone. It's micronized (finely ground) in the laboratory for better absorption in the body.

    Bioidentical hormone therapy is often called "natural hormone therapy" because bioidentical hormones act in the body just like the hormones we produce.

  • At age 25, the HGH level in our body is around 600ug. by age 60, the amount can gradually decline to 15%, or 90ug. When HGH decreases, our bodies age faster.

    Most hormones, like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone significantly decline as you age as well. If laboratory evaluation indicates a growth hormone deficiency, replacement may be indicated.

  • Red light therapy is a form of phototherapy that uses light to promote certain biological effects. With a wavelength that measures between 620 nm and 700 nm, red light can penetrate the skin deeply.

    Red light stimulates the mitochondria in our cells to make more energy and help promote increased cell turnover as well as targets fibroblasts, the cells that are responsible for collagen production, helping the skin make more of this essential skin-plumping protein.

    With red light, you may be able to help with or aid visible signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, loss of skin’s resilience, skin’s firmness, and fullness as well as uneven skin tone and texture.

    The technology behind our Mito-Red devices is different from others because it also has a next level of light therapy that is referred to as near-infrared or NIR light therapy which can penetrate deeper into the body, through the skin to the muscle and bone.

    NIR light therapy may be able to help with muscle pain, soreness, joint issues and stiffness, hair growth, mood and cognitive health, sleep quality, athletic performance, and muscle recovery. 

  • Semaglutide injections (most commonly known by brand name Ozempic) are a prescription medication used along with an individualized low-calorie, low-fat diet and exercise program to help with weight loss in obese adults or overweight adults who may also have high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol. 

    Using medication such as this one, making lifestyle changes (e.g., diet, exercise, quitting smoking), and regularly checking in with one of our physicians may help to manage your weight and improve your health.

    Patients are candidates for this medication through the provider’s diagnosis only and as long as they do not have any of the contraindications. 

  • TA-65® is a telomerase activator supplement derived from a natural compound found in the Astragalus membranaceus plant, commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine. It’s marketed as an anti-aging supplement designed to support cellular health, longevity, and immune function.

    Telomeres are structures at the ends of chromosomes that shorten during cell division and during the aging process. To delay this cellular aging, human T cells activate the enzyme telomerase, which binds and extends the telomeres.

    TA-65 increases telomerase activity, activates the telomerase pathway and increases proliferation. TA-65 helps keep cells functioning in a normal and healthy pattern.
