From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Synergy Health is a concept that encompasses the collaborative effort of multiple disciplines working together to improve the overall health and well-being of individuals and communities. This approach integrates various aspects of healthcare, including medicine, public health, nutrition, psychology, and physical fitness, to create a comprehensive and holistic strategy for promoting health and preventing disease.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Synergy Health focuses on the interconnections between different health-related factors and how they can be optimized to support an individual's health and wellness. By considering the wide range of influences on health, from genetic predispositions to lifestyle choices and environmental factors, Synergy Health aims to develop personalized and effective health plans.
