Background
Why did we do it?
The concept for Distiller arose from research being conducted
into the potential of a genetic profiing service in combination
with the common practice of health and nutritional assessments.
Inside Distiller
Distiller is not like the health assessments you
many be used to. Distiller uses a complicated algorithm that attempts
to replicate the logic and clinical experience of a healthcare practitioner
combined with the facts of scientific research. The information provided by Distiller is designed to support, not replace, the relationship that exists between a patient and their practitioner.
Most health
assessments utilise a simple questionnaire and numbering scheme
which is totally unrealistic when aplied to the grey areas of dealing
with real people. Each question in the Distiller questionnaire
has an influence on, and is influenced by, the other questions
and their responses. As you could imagine this approch has led
to an incredibly complicated network of interactions, much like
human biochemical pathways. As a result this allows the report
to be fine tuned to the individual based on their specific responses.
