The Path
Most chronic disease is preventable, and much of it is reversible, if a comprehensive, individualized approach addressing genetics, diet, nutrition, environmental exposures, stress, exercise, and psychospiritual needs is implemented through integrated clinical teams and based on emerging research. IFM programs and publications provide a pathway for training practitioners to prevent, treat, and often cure chronic conditions more effectively and at lower cost than the conventional, acute-care, specialist-oriented, medical model.
