UNDERSTANDING NEUROLOGICAL CONDITIONS

Neurological conditions are classified as those which affect the anatomy or function of nerves and the nervous system. In other words, the brain, spinal cord, cranial nerves, peripheral nerves, nerve roots, autonomic nervous system, neuromuscular junction, and muscles. Such conditions include epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, cerebrovascular disease, migraines and other headache disorders, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, neuroinfections, traumatic disorders of the nervous system due to head trauma, and neurological disorders as a result of malnutrition. 

Many bacterial (i.e. Mycobacterial tuberculosis, Neisseria meningitides, Streptococcus), viral (i.e. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Enteroviruses, West Nile Virus, Zika), fungal (i.e. Cryptococcus, Aspergillus), and parasitic (i.e. malaria, Chagas) infections can affect the nervous system as well. Neurological symptoms may occur due to the infection itself or due to an immune response, such as with Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders (PANS or PANDAS).

 

FUNCTIONAL & INTEGRATIVE HEALTH APPROACHES FOR MANAGING NEUROLOGICAL CONDITIONS

The intervention protocol will be different for each condition based upon the root cause. If you believe that you may have one of these conditions, contact one of our providers to determine the best plan for your needs. For testing, you may refer to our clinical testing services page or contact Flatirons Integrative Health & Nutrition to request a test.

We are also here to assist you through implementing every stage of change. Our practice offers personalized meal planning services as well as meal delivery services that can be individualized using your test results.
