What can someone with nearly 4 decades in Functional Medicine teach us about health? That’s today’s show and it’s a LOT simpler than you think! My functional medicine doctor, Dr Min Yeo, retired last year and sometimes, when people leave or retire in your health team, they leave a space quite hard to fill - especially when they cared so well for you and truly saw you for your lived experience. Dr Min Yeo was one such person to me and to many. “100 years ago doctors listened to their patients a lot - it’s the main thing we could do and was and still is, the art of medicine. Being a doctor is being good at pattern recognition”. Just a taste of Min’s views as a doctor, from a doctor who admits to doing terribly at school, for the most part. And yet, outside of medicine, Min has been a professional violinist & Yoga Teachers Australia Certified Yoga Teacher as well as a devoted dog mum to Mimi Red Toy Poodle (Delta Therapy Dog). She is passionate about spreading awareness of the impact of environmental & lifestyle measures such as diet, sleep, exercise and stress management as a foundation for healthy living & ageing. Known to “walk her talk” & for her ability to explain complex issues in a simple, fun, relatable fashion, she has been featured in publications such as Vogue, Marie Claire, The Telegraph, 50 So What, The Guardian, 21 World Wellbeing Experts.Enjoy the show and check the show notes at lowtoxlife.com/podcast Follow Min at https://www.instagram.com/drminyeo/https://linktr.ee/drminyeo Follow me, Alexx Stuart your host @lowtoxlife - tag me and share your AHA’s from the show!  Our sponsor offers: 2023: Ready for an Air Filter or Dehumidifier?
