Summary

In this episode, James welcomes back Dr. Bryce Appelbaum to the Evolution of Medicine podcast to continue their previous discussion about functional optometry. 

James and Dr. Appelbaum recently reconnected at an event tied to the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) initiative. Dr. Appelbaum approaches vision health from a functional medicine perspective and considers how functional vision issues can be implicated in seemingly unrelated cognitive issues, such as learning disabilities and ADHD.

Tune into this full conversation that explores:

  • How practitioners are working to communicate the full scope of what is possible in terms of improving vision, cognition, and overall health for the benefit of public awareness
  • Dr. Appelbaum has worked with Dave Asprey to demonstrate and document how targeted interventions can significantly improve vision
  • Why early-life screen time damages children's health, harming learning and focus  
  • How undiagnosed vision problems can have major impacts on health and wellbeing
  • Which patients benefit most from ScreenFit
