Functional medicine is a personalized approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease. Unlike conventional medicine, which often targets symptoms, functional medicine aims to restore optimal health by considering the entire body as an interconnected system. One of the pillars of functional medicine is the use of natural remedies, including herbal medicine, to promote healing and balance. Herbal medicine has been used for centuries in various cultures, from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to Ayurveda, and is becoming a growing area of interest in modern functional medicine.
