Personalized health is, firstly, the recognition that each individual patient or participant is unique.
Epigenetics literally means ‘on’ or ‘around’ (Epi-) the genes, and describes the interaction of changes in the environment in context with the genes of the individual.
Having an understanding of the interplay between genetics, epigenetics and other related areas of health science allows more accurate diagnosis and therefore increases the efficacy of subsequent treatment.
An important aspect of this relates to more exacting interpretation of differential diagnoses and development of interventions required for the same disease in two individuals with different aetiologies.
Furthering this, it gives insight into how treatment strategies will evolve and change for the same individual over time.
70%
Without personalisation at least 30% of the population is unheard or misunderstood. What if that was you?
Personalization allows all individuals to be seen, heard, understood and supported in the context of their health.
100%
WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT
No two people will respond the same to the same program, even identical twins. Each individual has distinctly different genes and their surrounding epigenetics cause a unique genetic expression through every moment of the day.
THE 80/20 MYTH - BUSTED!
There’s more to results than just food & exercise. Every factor of daily living can affect gene expression, including sleep, stress, climate, thought processes, social interactions, and even the time of day these things happen.
THE HUMAN BODY IS NOT STATIC
Lifestyle factors change every day and, along with them, our genetic expression.Your clients are different at different times in their life. As their health, or the environment around them changes, so should their program!
THE END OF THE INFORMATION AGE
With tech advancements we’re used to accessing information with one tap but now we’re demanding a more personalised experience. The Health tech supported in PHA seamlessly integrates this for every unique individual and creates a personalised digital connection from your practice.
THE EVOLUTION OF EDUCATION
As Health professionals we must change our approach and now it is easily doable. Access to the latest professional development in precision health and medicine means less guesswork, improved client care and a greater impact on the rates of preventable lifestyle disease across the globe.
Our uniqueness comes about through differences in genetic makeup, embryological, environmental and psychosocial influences and they have a profound and global effect on an individual’s health and their response to the world around them.
For over 100 years, researchers have been studying the effect of heritability on health, disease, behavior and individual differences.
This work has been furthered with the mapping of the human genome and how these genes can be interpreted by looking at the outside of the body, the Phenotype. Analysing the Phenotype allows incredibly deep insight into an individual’s biological makeup, their natural predispositions and strengths.
