At FoundationMED, we believe that long-term health begins with building a resilient physiologic foundation. Our general wellness support in Raleigh, NC helps patients proactively strengthen core systems—preventing disease before it starts and optimizing everyday vitality.

Our approach focuses on correcting physiologic imbalances through personalized care, lifestyle improvements, and functional medicine strategies. Whether you’re managing stress, improving nutrition, or simply aiming to feel your best, we guide you toward a more balanced, sustainable state of well-being.

Why General Wellness Matters

True wellness is more than the absence of illness—it’s a state of physiologic harmony. As we age, everyday exposures, stressors, and nutrition gaps can disrupt this balance, leading to subtle dysfunctions that accumulate over time. Left unaddressed, these imbalances can evolve into chronic health conditions.

At FoundationMED, our goal is to detect and address these early dysfunctions by supporting the body’s natural healing systems. Our general wellness care includes:

  • Nutrition guidance for foundational health
  • Personalized fitness planning and movement support
  • Stress reduction techniques and sleep optimization
  • Toxin exposure reduction and detoxification support
  • Ongoing metabolic marker monitoring

We call this integrative approach the “5 Boxes”—nutrition, exercise, toxin avoidance, restorative sleep, and stress management.

What General Wellness Support Includes

Our wellness model goes beyond standard checkups. We assess your whole-body physiology to detect early signs of dysfunction and help restore balance through preventative care.

Key Areas of Focus:

  • Nutrition Optimization: Personalized recommendations to incorporate real, nutrient-rich foods and minimize inflammatory additives, processed ingredients, and environmental toxins.
  • Exercise & Movement Planning: Sustainable movement routines that build strength, support cardiovascular health, and improve mobility—without emphasizing unsustainable fitness goals.
  • Toxin Reduction: Education and support to minimize exposure to harmful substances found in food, plastics, household products, and environmental pollutants.
  • Sleep & Stress Balance: Coaching to support restorative sleep cycles and resilience to life’s stressors—key pillars of long-term wellness.
  • Functional Lab Testing: Proactive monitoring of metabolic, hormonal, and inflammatory markers to detect early risk factors and guide your personalized plan.

“Dr. Citron is the most thorough doctor I’ve ever had, and I’ve been to multiple conventional and functional medicine doctors over the past 4 years. He did not guess or make assumptions about my condition; instead he ordered labs to get more information.”
