What is Chronic Disease?


Disease that has persisted for a long duration.

The Problem

A rapidly spreading epidemic of chronic disease has compromised the effectiveness of our healthcare system and threatens to bankrupt both national and global economies. Alarming projections suggest future generations may have shorter, less healthy lives if current trends continue unchecked.
Our current healthcare model fails to confront both the causes of and solutions for chronic disease and must be replaced with a model of comprehensive care geared to effectively treating and reversing this escalating crisis.
The Institute for Functional Medicine

THE COST OF CHRONIC DISEASE

Of total healthcare costs in the United States, more than 75% is due to chronic conditions.2

In 2008, the U.S. spent 16.2% of its GDP ($2.3 trillion) on health care.3

This exceeds the combined federal expenditures for national defense, homeland security, education, and welfare!

By 2023, if we don’t change how we confront this challenge, annual healthcare costs in the U.S. will rise to $4.13 trillion,4 the equivalent—in a single year—of four Iraq wars.

THE GLOBAL BURDEN OF CHRONIC DISEASE
“By 2020, it is predicted that noncommunicable diseases will account for 80% of the global burden of disease, causing 7 out of every 10 deaths in developing countries, compared with less than half today.
From 1983 to 2009, the number of people in the world with diabetes increased seven-fold, from 35 to 225 million.
In 2010, 92 million diabetics and 148 million
pre-diabetics were identified in China alone.

In the United States, about 133 million Americans—nearly 1 in 2 adults—live with at least one chronic illness, and chronic diseases already cause 7 in 10 deaths each year:
»Heart disease: 81 million people

» Cancer: 11 million people

» Depression: More than 1 in 20 Americans, 12+ years old

» Diabetes: “In the past 20 years [in the U.S.], the prevalence of diabetes has doubled and will do so again in the next 16 years.”

“One in every 3 children born [in the U.S.] today will develop diabetes during his/her lifetime.”

According to the CDC, we have the best crisis care in the world!



In 1997 The U.S.A. ranked 34th in HEALTH CARE!
In 2000 we ranked 37th
In 2007 we ranked 48th
In 2009 we ranked 50th
The U.S.A. ranked #41 in life expectancy
We spend more on healthcare than any other country in the world and we have the worst health of any industrialized nation.

Most chronic disease is preventable,
and much of it is reversible.

It’s largely due to our choices!

There is a genetic component, but mostly diet, nutrition, environmental exposures, stress, exercise, emotional, and spiritual needs.

Why Would Your Immune System Do This?
DYSREGULATION: IMMUNE SYSTEM IS IMBALANCED BECAUSE OF :

Dysglycemia (bad blood sugar)
Exhausted adrenal glands
Hormone imbalances
Neurological imbalances
Proper Testing is Critical!

Why Would Your Immune System Do This?
Proper Testing!
ACTIVE ANTIGEN: IMMUNE SYSTEM IS IMBALANCED DUE TO INFLAMMATION:
Chronic infection (bacterial, viral, mold)
Parasites in gut
Food sensitivity, i.e., gluten
Environmental toxins
Undigested food (leaky gut)
Heavy metals

Functional Neurologic Exam

Normal Brain Function
As long as the cerebellum is receiving the proper amount of nerve input there will be sufficient signaling to the frontal lobes of the brain…

…the brain will be able to send sufficient signals to the lower brain stem which will keep the mesencephalon from over-firing.

CEREBELLUM
LEFT BRAIN
Abnormal Brain Function
If one side of the cerebellum is not receiving the proper amount of nerve input it cannot send the proper amount of signal to the frontal lobe…

…the frontal lobe then cannot send the proper amount of signal to the lower brainstem which will not be able to keep the mesencephalon from over-firing.

Immune Response Leaky Gut Brain Disorder



When the brain membrane breaks down, the protective shield is gone. Neurotoxins can pass through freely, and Microglial cells attack to destroy the toxins, but there is COLLATERAL DAMAGE!

Bad Gut = Bad Brain










How well is your gut and body going to heal when 80% of your Immune System is in your gut and you’ve got a gut that’s not working properly?
