It is common to choose a profession based on personal experience, need, or the desire to help loved ones. I am no exception to that. But what sets me apart is that I noticed how conventional therapy and medicine aren't working for a lot of people. What healthcare providers are usually taught in school is symptomatic, meaning that they are working to suppress symptoms rather than treating the root cause of illness.

While conventional methods have their place and I think they are important (especially for acute conditions), I set out to find what was missing. Why are we covering up one symptom and trading it for another? I think I'm on the right track with epigenetics and metabolism.
