PreKure is a social enterprise that exists to inspire a change in medicine to be more focused on prevention. Prevention before cure.Today we have a sickness system, not a health system… on average we spend the last 15 years of our lives suffering disability from the complications of one of the big four chronic diseases – dementia, heart disease, diabetes or cancer. The problem is we medicate the symptoms rather than treat the root cause of the disease.It is now thought that up to 90% of all cancer may be preventable by making lifestyle changes.PreKure has a vision to make prescribing lifestyle medicine as easy as it is today to prescribe pills. We will achieve this vision in two ways.1. By educating all health professionals on lifestyle medicine and2. By providing FREE access to effective health behaviour change programs to those who need it the most.Together we can change medicine… prevention is cure.
