Will Cole is a renowned functional medicine doctor who has made a significant impact in the field. Over 13 years ago, he founded one of the first functional medicine telehealth clinics worldwide, where he currently serves as the head.

In his daily practice, Will consults with individuals, helping them uncover the root causes of their chronic health issues through lab tests and thorough analysis. His focus lies in addressing autoimmune inflammation problems, digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, nervous system dysregulation, and various inflammatory conditions.

Will's passion lies in identifying the upstream causes of health issues and equipping his patients with the necessary tools to overcome these challenges and regain control of their health. Additionally, he has authored several books on these subjects and hosts a podcast titled The Art of Being Well, where he delves deeper into pertinent topics.

To ensure his expertise and credibility, Will and his telehealth team have been trained by the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), which is also associated with the prestigious Cleveland Clinic in the United States. His dedication to wellness and his commitment to his patients make him a respected figure in the field of functional medicine.

Key quotes

  • The Power of Stillness: "I call them metaphysical meals. They're just little micro-moments of stillness. What we feed our bodies which influences our biochemistry, it's important, but what we serve and feed our head and our heart is just as important." — 00:25:19-00:25:32
  • The Benefits of Functional Medicine: "I feel like there's pockets of change happening that realize this. When you look at mainstream institutes like the Cleveland Clinic opening up a multi-million dollar functional medicine center and many other mainstream hospitals and medical institutions opening up functional medicine and integrative medicine institutes, it's not because they're disciples of some woo-woo sect. It's because the data speaks for itself. The science speaks for itself. And we have to do something different to see something different." — 00:31:17-00:31:44
