| The
physician, who ignores the person, fails the patient,
A physician who too often gets angry loses his
patients.
The preservation of our health
is a duty to us, our family, and our country and
to God. Personalized Medicine is a type of medicine;
Dr. Fortier-Bensen has been practicing for fifteen
years.
Functional Genomics are the evaluation and study
of the interactions of your genes and the environment.
They can be used to help with proactive risk assessment,
help you decide if you have inherited a series
of genes that may be the harbinger of chronic
disease in your family and helps with functional
medicine evaluation of patients refractory to
treatments. Biointervention is the understanding
of genomics of an individual, and the use of lifestyle
changes, diet, and nutritional support to improve
the ability of avoiding the possibility of chronic
disease. The results of the tests can explain
why certain patients have not been able to be
optimally healthy.
The idea of biochemical individuality is the core
of Integrative Medicine and its effects are seen
in Functional Genomics.
Predictive Genomics is useful because it identifies
certain inborn errors of metabolisms that will
have the likelihood of that person developing
a particular disease or functional imbalance when
he or she is exposed to a certain diet or environmental
factors. A strategy to avoid this person’s fatal
flaws then can be programmed into a lifestyle.
So far what we have spoken about is esoteric to
most patients.
