Dr. Charlie Campbell spoke on functional medicine and living your best life at the Rotary Club of EMC luncheon. Functional medicine is a system biology–based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual's illness.
 
 
According to Dr. Campbell, there is a silent epidemic, a nutritional deficiency that recent research has shown could shorten your life by as much as 4.7 years! The presentation will focus on the high probability that we are included in this epidemic and on recent research showing the many benefits of correcting this deficiency.
 
Rotarians appreciated Dr. Campbell's insight. Rotary Club President Danell Fields expressed the club's appreciation by donating a children's book to the New Caney Elementary School library in Dr. Campbell's honor.
