You are an individual and your health is the combination of your genetics and all the inputs your body has experienced over your life. From the food you eat to the medicines you have taken to the natural environment where you live.The concepts behind functional medicine have been around for over a century and were often clouded in the nuance of holistic medicine. But an increase in research dollars and the advent of cutting-edge technology to dissect and map human DNA have created a renaissance in health care.No longer are you relegated to the same old cycle of medication after medication. We now have the technology and the data to transform your body with customized health care. And that is exactly what we are doing here at the Institute for Functional Health.The Institute of Functional Health was founded by Dr. Jacob Torres so that this cutting-edge technology and new model of health care could be accessible and affordable to families across the country.Dr. Torres has worked with thousands of patients over the years who were tired of the endless cycle of sickness and medication. Moreover, he found that many patients were told by their doctor that they were "healthy", and yet they still felt bad. Traditional lab results showed no signs of a disease or disorder, and that was the end of their search for a cure. iffhealth.com
