What is Precision Prevention?

Precision Prevention is a program that takes preventive care to the next level. With Precision Prevention, N-of-1 Medicine really delves into your health and considers what you need as an individual. 

This guides a highly personalized health management plan that addresses all your needs at once. 

How does Precision Prevention work? 

Precision Prevention involves many different aspects of care, including: 

Genetic testing

Genetic testing evaluates your DNA in detail by looking at your unique DNA “fingerprint.” This type of testing can look for inherited diseases and chronic conditions. 

With genetic testing, the primary goal is to diagnose patients before they experience the negative effects of a disease. 

With an early diagnosis, you can begin treatment to stop the disease from progressing, avoid symptoms, or at least significantly reduce its long-term effects. Ultimately, genetic testing can offer a significantly better quality of life over the long term. 

But, genetic testing is also valuable in finding the root causes of current conditions because it allows for more targeted treatment.

Bodywide health and wellness evaluation

You’re a whole person, so N-of-1 Medicine believes that your health care should consider all parts of you while also finding the connections that link everything together. 

Your bodywide health and wellness evaluation involves evaluating your nutrition, weight, sleep, mental health, stress level, and many other things that contribute to how you feel in general. 

Of course, if you have a chronic disease (or if your genetic testing reveals the risk for one), your evaluation incorporates your condition and current treatment plan. 

After these evaluations and tests, your Precision Prevention plan can move on to the next phase: personalized treatment.
