In this episode, I chat with Dr. Ben Galyardt, a functional medicine practitioner who has built a thriving practice helping thousands of patients improve their health. With a team of around 50 staff members, Dr. Ben emphasizes a data-driven approach to patient care, utilizing continuous glucose monitoring and comprehensive care plans to ensure adherence and achieve remarkable health outcomes.

Dr. Ben shares his personal journey into functional medicine, which was inspired by his mother's battle with multiple sclerosis and her subsequent recovery through holistic practices. We explore the evolving reasons patients seek functional medicine, the alarming trends in health issues among younger generations, and the critical role of blood sugar regulation in preventing chronic conditions. Dr. Ben also offers practical advice for listeners on how to cultivate a proactive mindset and establish healthy routines, emphasizing the significance of doing hard things to foster personal growth and well-being.
