Know Your Number - Evidence based medicine relies on clinical diagnostics and measurements. The human body is made up of various molecules, which provide the basis of body functions. The goal of the KYN center is to educate our clients about the need to understand the meaning of the various tests that are used to determine the state of health of the human body. For example, studies have shown that the measurement of the Blood Hemoglobin B 1Ac is a good predictor how a Diabetic patient is responding to medication prescribed to treat Diabetes. Your medical doctor will request your blood work to monitor this number along with other measurement. Knowing your health numbers is key to maintaining overall good health. The KYN Center will be a forum to promote knowledge and understanding of the various scientific and clinical measurements.
