IN THIS EPISODE:
Shift in Healthcare and Attitudes
There has been a significant shift over the last few years, particularly due to the pandemic. People have started to value their health more and have realized the importance of being proactive and not taking their health for granted. There’s also a shift from passive healthcare to a more dynamic and proactive approach. People are starting to see that they are an individual and the conventional medical system doesn’t individualize healthcare.
Holistic View of Health
The pandemic has led to a change in people’s perspectives on health. Instead of viewing health as isolated symptoms, there’s a growing understanding of how different factors are interconnected and can compound over time. This holistic view emphasizes the importance of addressing weak links and imbalances to prevent future health issues.Trends and family history must be examined with labs and genetics to make wise decisions in care for clients. AI doesn’t provide this comprehensive view of looking at where clients are today on their health journey.
Rise of Functional Medicine and Individualization
There is increased interest in functional medicine and alternative approaches to healthcare. People are becoming more educated about their health, researching on their own, and seeking individualized solutions. The use of AI and apps can provide information, but it’s crucial for practitioners to use these tools with the labs, with the history, and with a personalized view to interpret and communicate the data effectively to create actionable plans for clients. Good practitioners do a thorough health history, look at genetic tendencies and the labs and trends found in the labs, and use these to lead the client to make positive behavior change in an actionable manner that is not overwhelming. The key is to teach clients how to apply the information they are gathering to their individualized needs.
