When FDN's founder, Reed Davis, originally created the FDN methodology, it stood out as a completely unique way of thinking about health. The idea that unlicensed practitioners/coaches could utilize labs was something almost unheard of. 
Nowadays, it is MUCH more common to see courses that look similar (keyword is LOOK) to what FDN has been teaching. in fact, a new course teaching functional labs seems to pop up every other month! 
With so much noise in the functional medicine space nowadays, one of the most common questions we get is, "How is FDN different than 'xyz' program that also teaches functional labs?" 
In this episode of the Health Detective Podcast, we are covering exactly that. Lucy McKellar, FDNP, and Detective Ev are discussing the differences between western medicine, natural medicine, functional medicine, and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition. After listening, it will be clear who does what, and you should easily be able to decide which philosophy most resonates with you and what you're wanting to learn in the future.
