Main Presentation: Healthy for Life … Evidence to Support Predictive Biomarkers for Lifetime Health” by Russell Jaffe MD, PhD, CCN
Chronic health issues precipitate from a myriad of origins. Noticeably, a common set of root causes appear to be
- Cumulative repair deficits
- Oxidative damage
- Metabolic acidosis
Evidence based clinical management of long-standing health issues, be it fibromyalgia or cardiovascular disease includes addressing these 3 basic elements. In order to tailor therapeutic management, it is essential to look at predictive tests that actually confirm specific individual need and, in better cases, also effectively monitor outcome results. Focusing around reference or goal values and the associated clinical interpretations for these validated predictive biomarkers is what personalized medicine should be all about.
Tests that will be discussed have been used in large populations with long follow up to provide confidence in their all cause morbidity, mortality predictive ability. They collectively cover crucial aspects of metabolism including methylation, insulin efficiency, acid/alkaline balance, antioxidant need and immune tolerance. Evidence in support of these primary, predictive tests brings the presentation together for the practitioner and patient alike, interested in removing obstacles to recovery and in comprehensive, individualized evidence-based care.
Short Presentation: “What Is Health? “How to Make Your Healthcare Simple! by Robert Menkemeller R.N.C
Does anyone really know what health is? Yes, we have several ideas around what it is but for the most part, they are fragmented at best. On top of that, we do not have a road-map or framework of what it is and how to achieve it. Here’s several questions that will be answered in this short presentation:
What is health?
What is disease?
Why do people get sick?
How can disease be prevented or reversed?
How long can people live in good health, and what does it take to achieve this?
What is the potential for human health and longevity?
