Genomics Based Health Optimization
The purpose of precision medication is to understand how a person's genetics, environment, and lifestyle can help determine the best approach for that individual to prevent or treat disease.
Currently, medical practices followed certain protocols and prescribed medications without considering patients' genetic makeup, environment, or lifestyle, even science has proven the importance of these factors.
Now that the human genome has been fully sequenced, and we have reliable methods of collecting environmental and lifestyle data we believe that individualized health care is the only way to practice medicine.
Precision medicine makes it possible for us to better guide patients in their decisions for the best treatment and prevention strategy for each individual according to their personal health information, including their genetic makeup. Some human genetic variations are closely related to certain diseases or individual patient responses to certain medications; therefore, we can choose specific treatment options to optimize the patient's outcome. For example, in precision medicine, physicians can choose different foods, supplements or medications to help their patients loose weight or increase energy by examining patients methylation and genetic metabolization of different macronutrients.
