Continuous Break Through Improvement
First of all your initial efforts provided break through infrastructure to actually make it possible for individual patients to start their journey toward taking control of their own health. The fact that you continually provide additional break through improvements is even more impressive. Things like reconizing the need to add additional bio markers to the lab work is important so well done. My labs pointed out I had some major issues because of my elevated hsCRP and homocysteine levels so as I began to study possible causes for this I started to suspect I might have a MTHFR gene mutation. So I asked my primary care doctor at Mayo if they would check this at my next physical. They said insurance would not pay of it and it is not something they normally do for physicals. So, since I now have more control of my health I went to Quest Labs to see if they could check for this gene mutation. They could now do that but it would cost $100 for that test. This was a no brainer so I quickly told them to "Hook me up". The results came back positive for the MTHFR mutation with the C677T variant. Functional Medicine gave me a whole new outlook on what I needed to do but now I had to figure out what were the best supplements and nutrients to help me correct the gene mutant problem. Well, guess what the next great break through improvement Functional Health implemented? SUPPCO so now I not only updated my stack quality but also was able to find the right products to work around the gene mutation so the quality of life has improved significantly...Is that control or what? Recommended Improvement: Now the next break through improvement that should be addressed is the issue of taking multiple sources of data (e.g. my Mayo lab work and quest lab work) so you can have one plan that is able to combine the disease control data with the Health control data that helps eliminate the confusion caused by an induvidual patient trying to interpret such different approaches to medical care.
