Welcome to the Parkinson's Solutions Summit 2.0. I'm your host, Dr. Ken Sharlin. Today I'm welcoming Dr. Jill Carnahan from Boulder, Colorado. Flatiron Functional Medicine - You’re Functional Medicine Doctor. I've known Dr. Jill for many years now. She was a guest at last year's Parkinson's Summit. She's written an outstanding book behind her left shoulder. They're called Unexpected, and I think we'll probably talk about that a little bit today. 

She is not only a broadly functional medicine expert; she's done work in mold and Lyme disease and other environmental exposures. She has taught many doctors through the Institute for Functional Medicine, and she's been involved with Dr. Bredesen at one point in time as well, I know. Just widely accepted. She's sort of a doctor's doctor. I'm sure you're going to enjoy the interview and the information Dr. Jill has to share with us today. Thank you, Jill, for joining us. It's a pleasure to have you.

Dr. Jill is Your Functional Medicine Expert® She uses functional medicine to help you find the answers to the cause of your illness and the nutritional and biochemical imbalances that may be making you feel ill. Functional medicine is personalized medicine that deals with root cause of disease instead of just treating symptoms. Dr Jill will search for underlying triggers that are contributing to your illness through cutting edge lab testing and tailor the intervention to your specific needs as an individual. She may use diet, supplements, lifestyle changes or medication to treat your illness but will seek the most gentle way to help your body restore balance along with the least invasive treatment possible. She seeks to promote wellness and create hope, health and healing by working with you!
