Kohef

The Preventive Medicine and Functional Medicine Association (KOHEF) was founded with the aim of combining the scientific foundations of modern medicine with the holistic perspective of functional medicine, ensuring the health of individuals not only during illness but throughout every stage of life.

Launched in 2017 under the leadership of healthcare professionals, academics, and physicians specializing in functional medicine, KOHEF continues its work to raise public awareness of general health and promote the importance of preventive medicine.

The fundamental principle of our association is based on the principle that "prevention is more valuable than cure." In this regard, KOHEF adopts a cause-focused health model that holistically considers individuals' genetic makeup, lifestyle, environmental factors, and psychological states. The goal is to create a sustainable culture of health by addressing not only the symptoms of diseases but also the underlying causes.

All projects, seminars, and research activities conducted under the umbrella of KOHEF are aimed at both protecting public health and improving the knowledge of healthcare professionals.

Our association: It is a powerful scientific collaboration platform bringing together physicians, dietitians, physiotherapists, and professionals from related fields working in the healthcare field. This structure ensures the most effective implementation of a multidisciplinary approach.

From a functional medicine perspective, elements that support the body's basic functions, such as nutrition, stress management, sleep patterns, hormonal balance, gut health, and detoxification systems, are evaluated holistically. Thus, KOHEF aims to make disease prevention a lifestyle, not a "treatment method."

With public awareness programs, scientific training, academic collaborations, and continuous improvement-focused activities, KOHEF continues to strengthen the place of preventive medicine in the healthcare system.
Believing in every individual's right to a healthy life, KOHEF is committed to contributing to the development of people-centered healthcare policies with a vision that builds the medicine of the future today.
