Description: On todays episode I speak with MD Dr Aaron Hartman,  MAR, FAAFP, DABFM, DABIM, DAIHM, IFMCP. The medical system didn’t offer much hope for his daughter's medical condition and he was forced to explore alternative treatments. We talk about this journey he went through and the improvement he saw in both his daughter and son once they started focusing on real food and alternative treatments. We talk about COVID long haulers syndrome and what he’s seen in his practice.  We also talk about the current medical system, the changes we need to actually help people and the importance of real food. Food is medicine and food is information. We need real food with real information for our bodies to self regulate and heal. Dr. Hartman graduated Summa Cum Laude in Biology from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995, earned his MD from Medical College of Virginia in 2000, and then completed his residency in Family Medicine at the Hanover Family Practice residency program at the Medical College of Virginia in 2003. In 2012 he formalized his commitment to exploring new and advanced treatment opportunities through his membership with the American Board of Integrative and Holistic Medicine and then the Institute for Functional Medicine. In 2015 he received his second board certification in Integrative and Holistic Medicine through the American Board of Physician Specialties and in 2016 earned the recognition as a Certified Practitioner in Functional Medicine from the Institute for Functional Medicine.
