Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas HedbergZinc Assessment and Clinical ApplicationsZinc Functions Zinc is an essential trace element required by almost every biological process in the human body including growth and development, immune function, wound healing, protein and DNA synthesis, and cell division. It is used in over 300 enzymatic reactions, serves as an anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant, and is important for sight, hearing, and taste. The system-wide ubiquity of zinc increases the clinical importance of detecting and supporting a deficiency when present. Unfortunately, it is frequently underutilized in clinical practice. Gaining a deeper understanding of the many roles zinc plays in human health, learning the appropriate methods...2022-09-0823 min

Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas HedbergVitamin B12 Assessment and ManagementBackground Information—Form and Function of B12 Vitamin B12 Form Cyanocobalamin has no known biochemical function. It must be converted to become active. It gets converted for use into hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin, or adenosylcobalamin. These three forms are equal in bioavailability. An exception to this is for the use of adenosylcobalamin in infants with a rare inborn error of synthesis. Methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin are coenzyme forms of B12.Hydroxocobalamin can be converted into the above two forms. Click here to learn more about the Hedberg Institute Membership.

Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas HedbergHypochlorhydria: Causes, Symptoms, Assessment, and ManagementThe combination of hydrochloric acid, lipase, and pepsin combine to create the acidic gastric juices found in the stomach. These healthy stomach acid levels serve as a first line of defense for the gastrointestinal system, preventing infectious agents from reaching the intestines. A normal gastric pH is considered to be present with pH values >3, with values below 4 capable of killing bacterial invaders within 15 minutes. Gastric juices with a pH >3 mark the beginning stages of hypochlorhydria. As the pH increases above 4, there is an increased prevalence of bacterial overgrowth. Achlorhydria is defined as a pH >7.

Dr. Nikolas Hedberg, D.C.Can the Paleo Diet Cause Iodine Deficiency?... Read more 2020-12-1413 min

Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas HedbergCan the Paleo Diet Cause Iodine Deficiency?The Paleo Diet is a popular diet that can work well for many chronic diseases, especially autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto’s disease. However, the Paleo Diet can be somewhat restrictive which can result in deficiencies if the dieter doesn’t carefully review their food and micronutrient intake. Iodine is one important micronutrient that may become depleted on a Paleo Diet. The Autoimmune Paleo Diet is an even more restrictive diet so the same deficiency may happen. Let’s review what the research shows about the Paleo Diet and iodine deficiency. A paper published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition entitl...2020-12-1413 min

Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas HedbergCan COVID-19 Trigger Hashimoto’s Disease?We have known since the early 1970s that infections can trigger autoimmune diseases and now we have an interesting hypothesis on the potential triggering of Hashimoto’s disease by COVID-19 infection. A recent case study out of Singapore published in the Singapore Medical Journal entitled, “COVID-19 complicated by Hashimoto’s thyroiditis” presents an individual who developed Hashimoto’s thyroiditis after contracting COVID-19. COVID-19 can cause a hyperinflammatory state in the body which is a potential recipe for developing autoimmune disease. The authors begin by pointing out the most current literature on COVID-19 connections to the autoimmune diseases antiphospholipid syndrome, autoimmune thrombocyt...2020-08-1711 min

One of the most important aspects of practicing functional medicine is understanding how much trauma can be connected to chronic illness. Many patients won't get well until they address their past and how it is affecting their current health issues. All the healthy diets, supplements, exercise, sleep, exposure to nature, community etc. won't be enough if there is u...2020-07-2054 min
