Naturopathic functional diagnosis and individualized treatment are uniquely suited for good outcomes with these disorders.

He articulates clinical pearls and presents a thorough review of the relevant published research. This text focuses on the underlying causes of functional GI disorders as well as their diagnosis, treatment and management.
