An epidemic of chronic disease threatens to compromise the health of our population and the effectiveness and economics of our healthcare system. Alarming projections suggest that future generations may have shorter, less healthy lives if current trends continue unchecked.1 Because of its focus on acute care, the current medical model fails to confront both the causes of and solutions for the chronic disease epidemic, and must be replaced with a model of comprehensive care and prevention that is systems-based, integrative, patient-centered, and more effective. AFMCP has been designed to meet that challenge. - See more at: https://www.functionalmedicine.org/conference.aspx?id=3061&cid=0&section=t726#sthash.Ve2Miw6S.dpuf
