Who We Are.
What We Accelerate.

Microbiome Alliance for Disease Prevention (MADP) is a U.S.-based, registered 501(c)(3) public health non-profit focused on advancing early detection and prevention of chronic disease. We are dedicated to serving patients, healthcare providers, and the broader community – bringing forth the latest clinical testing, diagnostics, and supportive resources.

 

Precision, prevention, and early detection are opening the door to realign the way we look at health, how we treat patients, and how we combat disease.  MADP addresses the critical drivers of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer utilizing  precision medicine, the microbiome, and precision nutrition  ~  MADP Precision Public Health.

 

 

Precision Medicine is a fundamental aspect of preventive healthcare – enabling early detection, diagnosis, and targeted treatments.  It takes into account individual differences in patients’ genes, nutrition, environment, lifestyle, and the microbiome.  Leveraging clinical lab testing and screening diagnostics detects diseases at their earliest most treatable stages.

 

For patients, navigating the complex clinical field can be overwhelming.  Understanding the drivers of disease, the importance of early detection, and the benefits of preventive measures, is crucial for informed decision-making and active participation in one’s own medical care.

 

“Understand Today to Prevent Tomorrow.”

 

We are unwavering in our commitment to patients and providers relentlessly pursuing the latest clinical advancements to improve patient outcomes.  From simple screening tests to complex molecular biomarkers ~ MADP ensures everyone benefits from the promise of precision healthcare.

MADP operates as a COLLABORATIVE ALLIANCE partnering with top medical institutions, clinicians, and researchers from across the country. TOGETHER we break down barriers to bring hope –  today, tomorrow, and generations to come.

TOGETHER we are driven to share research, expertise, and best practices to break down barriers and bring new hope for those suffering with chronic disease.

Understanding the Microbiome &
Its Impact on Health

The rapid advances in science have expanded our understanding of the human microbiome.  This intricate ecosystem of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microorganisms plays a vital role in health versus disease.

Often referred to as a ‘second organ’ due to its
significant impact on our health.

The human body contains 100 times more microbial genes than human genes.  These microbial genes form what is known as the ‘second genome‘.

 

The gut microbiome, a community of microorganisms located within the gastrointestinal tract, plays a crucial role in many vital biological functions ~ including producing essential vitamins, regulating the immune system, metabolism, nervous system, hormones, and even influencing our gene expression.

  

“It is a NEW ERA of preventive, precision medicine opening the door to realign the way we look at health, how we treat patients, and how we combat disease.”

Chronic Inflammation &
The Development of Chronic Disease

Chances are either you, or someone you care about, has been diagnosed with either heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, autoimmune disease, food allergies, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, or dementia. These are a few of the multitude of chronic disease states that are driven by chronic inflammation.  Chronic inflammation can increase the risk of:

 

    • Cardiovascular Disease: Inflammation plays a critical role in the development and progression of atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes.
    • Cancer: Chronic inflammation can contribute to DNA damage and promote the growth of certain types of cancer.
    • Type 2 Diabetes: Inflammatory markers are often elevated in individuals with insulin resistance, which can progress to type 2 diabetes.
    • Arthritis: Conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are driven by chronic inflammation in the joints.
    • Obesity: Adipose tissue in obese individuals can produce pro-inflammatory cytokines, contributing to metabolic disturbances.
    • Neurodegenerative Disorders: Chronic inflammation is implicated in diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, where it can exacerbate neuronal damage.

“Preventing inflammation is primary. Identifying early biomarkers and implementing a sustainable treatment plan is essential."

MADP Circle of Hope
Advancing Cancer Prevention
& Comprehensive Cancer Care

When battling cancer, every minute matters.  MADP is dedicated to supporting cancer patients throughout their journey. We provide comprehensive resources to help patients navigate the complex world of cancer, offering a hopeful approach to understanding the disease and accessing essential care.

 

MADP collaborates with leading cancer researchers, oncologists, and precision medicine experts to deliver the latest advancements in cancer detection, tumor biomarker testing, and targeted treatments.

 

We are deeply grateful for their knowledge, expertise, personal cancer survivorship, and commitment to assisting others through MADP’s public health non-profit. Their efforts help us break down barriers and provide critical supportive resources.

 

MADP Circle of Hope supports individuals recently diagnosed with cancer, those undergoing treatment, and cancer survivors.  MADP Circle of Hope is here for you Together Fighting Cancer Every Step of the Way.
