Transforming Healthcare by Identifying & Treating the Root Cause of Disease
In the midst of this global pandemic, boosting our immune systems should be at the forefront of each and every person’s to-do list. But how do we accomplish this? This video takes a deep dive into how FMI focuses on the individual and treats the root cause of their health concern. Often, this approach is tied to reducing inflammation and gut healing, two treatment protocols that are crucial for immune health (and even more critical during this pandemic and cold/flu season). Let functional medicine help boost your immunity, keep you healthy, and allow you to live vibrantly!
We also invite you to hear from our Medical Director, Dr. Mark Holthouse, on his approach to helping patients achieve their optimal health! Our mission at FMI is to provide preventative care that focuses on lifestyle modifications to truly transform the health and lives of our patients. We believe in the lasting, healing power of functional medicine!
We believe everyone’s journey to optimal health looks different.
There is no one-size-fits-all; that’s why our team of providers, nurses, nutritionists and health coaches work collaboratively to deliver innovative, value-based care rooted in Functional Medicine.
Functional Medicine is the future of medicine, where providers treat the “whole” person and get to the root cause of disease. By establishing a patient and provider partnership, Functional Medicine of Idaho is transforming healthcare by giving the patient the ultimate power to heal. Functional Medicine efforts focus on the root causes of an individual’s condition and treats those causes.
Embarking on the journey to better health together!
Your First Appointment
During your initial appointment, your provider will review your health profile and spend time to dive deep into your health history, past health issues, and ongoing health concerns.
Gathering More Information
After your first appointment, your provider will request lab work or specialty testing to provide us with more insights into what is going on in your body at the cellular level.
Nutritional Consultation
During your initial nutrition consultation, you will work with one of our nutritionists to determine how foods can help restore balance and promote health.
Lifestyle Consultation
We will reflect on your journey and work together to identify challenges, sources of inspiration and motivation that will empower you to make the necessary shifts towards optimal health.
Shared Medical Visits
Adding another layer of support to your experience – nutrition classes, group visits and intensives allow us to combine clinical care, health education, and peer support to better serve you.
Continued Individualized Care
From this point, we allow you to set the pace for the amount of follow-ups with your care team. We love being a part of your health journey and are available for accountability, further education, and ongoing support.

Before coming to Functional Medicine of Idaho, I had been dealing with months of unexplained health problems. Now, my stomach issues are nearly gone, I’m sleeping better, and the seasonal allergies I’ve had since childhood are gone. I’m really thankful for Functional Medicine of Idaho’s approach that takes into consideration all parts of life and health.
Functional Medicine of Idaho has changed my life by giving me the information, education and confidence to control my health and wellness. Since being diagnosed with pre-diabetes based on thorough testing at FMI and personal advocacy, I now eat healthier, exercise smarter, reduce stress and avoid toxins. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Like many executives, I’ve lived a life at “full speed”, until the day my body gave out, with literally no energy to do hardly anything. Thanks to the team at Functional Medicine of Idaho, I have changed my diet, improved my sleeping condition, and am on the rebound to a more fully functioning body and a more rewarding lifestyle.
Six months ago, at the age of 47, I suffered a heart attack. While the cardiologist was unable to find a reason for my heart attack, Functional Medicine of Idaho was willing to dig deeper, run extra tests, and do whatever was necessary to find the root cause of my problem. Since then, they have helped me get completely off of the Statin drugs prescribed by the cardiologist. I feel healthier and stronger, and I can’t recommend Functional Medicine of Idaho enough!

This year is definitely a little different than any other - we are seeing less of the flu, and a spike in Covid-19 nationally.
So what is the single most important action we can take to protect ourselves? Support our immune system and continue to prioritize our health. At the root of disease whether infectious (the ones we spread to each other) or noncommunicable (the ones we don’t spread, mostly caused by chronic inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction) is inflammation.
What else can you do?
• Wash yours hands - one the best and easiest way to stop the spread of germs!
• Physical distance - protection increases with distance
• Stay home if you are sick - this not only reduces your risk - it helps protects others too!
• Wear a mask - science shows that, when worn properly, masks are helpful in reducing risk of exposure and spread.

Idaho had a record breaking number of new COVID cases yesterday.
The CDC is discouraging you from having large holiday gatherings as a way to keep the hospitals from being burdened with sick patients that require hospitalization.
Individuals with obesity, cardiovascular disease, and type II diabetes are at an increased risk for severe illness from this virus.
We encourage our patients to be mindful of how they care for their bodies this holiday season. Watch your sugar and caloric intake as a way to keep your inflammation, blood sugar, and weight under control. Find a way to move your body, even with the gyms being shut down - walking is a great form of exercise! Mange your stress, optimize your sleep, take a breath and remember what you are thankful for. We can get through this and enjoy a safe holiday season!
