In this episode of the Prime Health Podcast, Dr. Derek Baron interviews Dr. Michael Kaye, chiropractor, functional medicine practitioner, and founder of the Center for Functional Health. With a career spanning since 1988, Dr. Kaye grew up overweight in Philadelphia, watched his parents suffer from preventable chronic disease, and made it his life’s mission to help others avoid the same fate through lifestyle, movement, and root-cause medicine.
Key Takeaways:
- Common Is Not Normal: Just because symptoms like fatigue, bloating, or constipation are frequent doesn’t make them acceptable. Dr. Kaye challenges patients to stop normalizing red flags their body is sending them.
- The Root-Cause Approach: Functional medicine looks beyond the diagnosis to find what’s actually driving the problem — addressing gut health, nutrition, sleep, and movement together rather than managing symptoms in isolation.
- Your Story Matters: Spending 90 minutes with a patient instead of 11 minutes changes everything. Understanding how someone expresses their symptoms and how they live their life is critical to getting real results.
- Sleep and Movement Are Non-Negotiable: Dr. Kaye’s top health advice is simple — prioritize restorative sleep and keep moving. No magic, no shortcuts. Tendons, ligaments, joints, and muscles all need consistent movement to function well.
- Resiliency is Prime Health: His definition of prime health is the ability to be strong — physically and psychologically — no matter what life throws your way. Build resiliency into your lifestyle and you’ll always be ready.
