Our Focus
Diet contributes to the development of many chronic conditions, some cancers, and perhaps some neurological diseases. In addition to being a cause it can also be a powerful adjuvant treatment that complements traditional approaches to disease management. By investigating the role of nutrition in promoting health and aiding chronic disease treatment, we aim to provide evidence-based solutions that optimise patient outcomes.
The psychological aspects of chronic disease management are often not well understood. Stress, anxiety and depression are concomitants of chronic disease and a side effect of some treatments. By advocating for a multi-disciplinary approach and the integration of mental health strategies into existing protocols, we aim to enhance patient well-being and contribute to a holistic approach to chronic disease care.
Exercise Medicine is a clinically prescribed adjuvant and preventative treatment. We recognise the significant impact of exercise medicine on chronic diseases and strive to uncover innovative treatments through rigorous scientific study. By focusing on personalised Exercise Medicine as a key component of disease prevention and management, we aim to improve global health outcomes, survivability and enhance overall well-being.
