Functional Medicine for Autoimmune Disorders: Root Cause Solutions
Functional medicine approaches autoimmune disorders like Hashimoto's, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus by addressing root causes rather than just managing symptoms, focusing particularly on the gut-immune connection. Research reveals that chronic stress and intestinal permeability create a cascade of inflammation that can trigger autoimmune responses, while targeted nutritional interventions can help modulate immune function and reduce disease activity. Dr. Gabriel Holtski, ND combines comprehensive diagnostic testing with personalized protocols that integrate gut healing, stress management, and evidence-based supplementation to help patients achieve lasting improvements rather than lifelong symptom suppression.

What is Functional Medicine? A Comprehensive Approach to Healing
Functional medicine is a systems-biology approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease rather than just treating symptoms, recognizing that the body functions as an interconnected web where dysfunction in one area affects the whole. Dr. Gabriel Holtski combines his naturopathic medical training with specialized functional medicine expertise to provide comprehensive consultations, advanced laboratory testing, and personalized treatment protocols that integrate clinical nutrition, targeted supplementation, botanical medicine, lifestyle interventions, and when appropriate, prescription medications. This precision medicine approach allows Dr. Holtski to address the unique pattern of imbalances contributing to each person's health challenges, creating sustainable improvements through root-cause resolution rather than symptom management.
