Short excerpt from an interview video where a clinician addresses a skeptical patient about functional medicine. The speaker frames functional medicine around fundamental lifestyle measures — good food, exercise, and other lifestyle factors — as core to improving health.

What would you say if you were talking to someone who's skeptical about functional medicine, a patient who's come to see you? I'm not quite sure about this, but I'm here because my sister, brother, spouse said I should be here.
Yeah. That makes me just go back to diet and exercise and lifestyle. No one, no conventional doctor, is ever going to say you shouldn't eat right and exercise. That is fundamental for our good health. And I think that's the basics of functional medicine is good food and exercise, and that helps your with your health.
