FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE BRIEF

ISSUE #1: January 30, 2026


Mitchell's Pick

Saffron appears to be as effective as fluoxetine for reducing depressive symptoms, with fewer reported side effects. This is an area worth watching as more research emerges; especially with a few companies now developing products that use therapeutic dosing.


Kate's Pick

"The Hidden Language of Perimenopause" reframes midlife change as a whole-body conversation, not just a hormonal event. Dr. Mary Grimberg decodes the signals our body sends during perimenopause with equal parts humor and science. Worth the 16-min watch!


👋 This is The FM Brief. Just one standout pick from each of us that caught our attention and felt worth sharing. More to come!


Enjoy your weekend,
