About this episode

Dr. Michael Haley discusses with Dr. Jade Guerra the idea that Type 2 diabetes is a symptom of deeper health issues rather than the primary problem.

Type 2 diabetes may be the diagnosis—but what if it is also a symptom of deeper problems affecting the body? In this episode of The Dr. Haley Show, Dr. Michael Haley speaks with Dr. Jade Guerra about the functional medicine approach to Type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s disease, autoimmune conditions, environmental toxins, nutrition, sleep, and chronic illness. Dr. Guerra is both a Doctor of Chiropractic and a Family Nurse Practitioner with nearly 35 years of experience. Instead of applying the same treatment plan to every patient, she investigates the individual metabolic, hormonal, digestive, environmental, and lifestyle factors that may be interfering with that person’s health. She explains why a diagnosis often develops years—or even decades—before it is discovered and why simply controlling a laboratory number may not address the underlying cause. DR.
