This episode is brought to you by Functional Nurse Academy

Melissa is joined by functional nurse Cassidee Weaver, founder of Cassidee Weaver | Functional Wellness PLLC, to discuss her journey from conventional medicine into functional medicine after experiencing firsthand the limitations of the healthcare system during COVID and her own pregnancy. Cassidee shares how a severe mystery rash during pregnancy completely resolved through targeted dietary changes after being told she would likely need lifelong medication. They also discuss root-cause healing, herbal medicine including burdock root, postpartum nutrient depletion, faith, and wellness success stories involving chronic pain and infertility.We also discuss how insurance-based medicine often focuses on symptom suppression instead of addressing root causes such as food sensitivities, nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and environmental exposures. Cassidee shares how functional medicine gave her a framework to better understand the body and help patients pursue a more holistic path to healing.
