Evidence based prevention strategies rely on the modification of lifestyle habits such as smoking cessation, exercising and following a low fat diet. This is what I assumed until a few years ago when I was made aware of concepts such as orthomolecular nutrition and functional medicine.

We must not admit that prevention strategies fail. We should re-learn the anatomy and the physiology of the body thinking in terms of cells and metabolic interactions.
