Explore the Future of Medicine Today & Control Your Health & Aging!
As most of us know, one size fits all medicine and a medical approach that waits for disease to emerge and then treats the end-symptoms of disease doesn't provide optimal health. For some individuals based on their DNA, a glass of wine a day contributes to good heart health, for another it’s a stepping stone to alzheimer’s or a heart attack. You may or may not be aware that recent advances in science and technology such as personalized genomics, free radical biology, mitochondrial biology, neuro-immunology, etc. have made it not only possible for us to live longer, but for us to actually live healthier and with more vitality. We can predict future health risks far in advance and prevent them from occurring.
CENIGENT Health Enhancement Medical Institute is distinguished to be the first medical facility in the world to take advantage of all of these advancements and integrate them into a systems approach and individualized health programs that allow us to predict potential or existing medical conditions, future health risks and genetic weaknesses with comprehensive health assessments, rigorous and advanced testing (500 cellular biomarkers, genetic SNP testing, predictive whole body MRI imaging and other diagnostic tests), customized research which then allows us to treat the core systems (rather than end-symptoms) that lead to those potential issues and age related health decline before they become serious health conditions with personalized therapies, restorations, recommendations and ample follow-ups. Our advanced personalized medical programs are matched by the personal attention our physicians provide each patient at any visit in a soothing and aesthetically pleasing environment.
By treating those potential health problems with a systems-based approach personalized to each person’s genetic signature we also address its respective symptoms and are able to predict, prevent, personalize and treat many age related health conditions including:
Loss of Memory
Erectile Dysfunction
Overall Age Related Health Decline
Low Libido
Menopause
Andropause
Diabetes
High Blood Pressure
Elevated Cholesterol
Obesity
Neuropathy
Cardiovascular Disease
Stroke
Neurodegenerative diseases (Parkinson’s & Alzheimer’s)
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Osteoarthritis
Osteoporosis
Fibromyalgia
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Poor Skin Health
Poor Circulation
Frequent Colds
Poor Sleep
At CENIGENT we are dedicated to help you achieve your peak health, peak performance, and healthy aging – at any age. Explore the future of Medicine today and discover HOW CENIGENT can benefit you.

Understanding The Immune System by Lida Ghaderi MD
Understanding The Immune System
Constant Surveillance & Error Correction
The Immune system is yet another amazing and critical pillar that impacts many aspects of your functioning through communication with all the other CENIGENT systems - mutually exchanging information, receiving and conferring.
Your immune system is your body’s self-esteem. Think of it as a refined and cohesive blend of an army’s central intelligence system, hospital, judge, proofreader, teacher and janitorial service. The immune system has soldiers, correction officers and guards named T-cells and B-cells, macrophages, monocytes, natural killer cells and others that also produce a variety of unique chemical signals called cytokines. These cytokines provide specific information to a variety of other cells.
All the soldiers, guards and correction officers are in constant communication, checking for errors inside cells, identifying and battling foreign invaders and instructing other systems on how to deal with problems. Ironically, the immune system has the power to fight disease and prevent us from catching a common cold, yet it can also be the underlying reason we get sick. A healthy immune system has an arsenal of tools and weapons to do its job. It can shoot holes in the invader, tag or capture it for others to deal with or repair the problem.
Inflammation is a natural life preserving process of recruiting the immune system’s artillery to curb infections, offending organisms, toxins, injury and error. We may experience it as swelling, fever, or redness. If, however, this life saving inflammation becomes ongoing at your cell level we call it chronic Inflammation. Chronic inflammation at your cell level becomes a trigger for many other chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases like high blood pressure, strokes, heart attacks, congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s and many other conditions such as osteoporosis, insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity, cancers, and metabolic syndrome to name a few.
Chronic inflammation instructs our genetic system to create more damaging inflammatory chemicals by activating a dangerous genetic reader called Nuclear Factor Kappa B (NFKB) (you may explore this in more detail in the epigenetic section). Chronic inflammation can lead to the shrinking of specific types of nerve cells which are involved in learning and memory as well as to lower specific hormones such as testosterone.
In short, Chronic Cellular Inflammation is WAR on our bodies…
As we age, our overall immune function declines. Combine that with a decline in hormones, chronic stress, poor nutrition, environmental toxins such as garden herbicides, pesticides, industrial toxins and heavy metals, adverse lifestyle habits, certain drugs, chemicals, and your genetic susceptibility, plus a decline in your cellular and mitochondrial health, and your immune system is very likely to become faulty.
An example of a faulty overactive immune system is when it attacks itself, giving rise to a variety of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, sarcoidosis, or inflammatory bowel disease like Crohn’s disease, or ulcerative colitis to name a few.
Whether it is chronic Inflammation at your cellular level, a declining immune system as a result of aging, and/or the failure of your immune system to distinguish self proteins from foreign proteins, it can to lead to a lack of vitality and, at its very worst - debilitating chronic diseases.
At CENIGENT we meticulously assess every aspect of your immune system, which is possible through extensive health questionnaires and testing of specific immune markers, markers of cellular inflammation, a variety of inflammation promoting cytokines as well as testing for chronic bacterial and viral exposure, and toxic heavy metal levels.
We also test you for specific food allergies and check the health of your digestive system, both of which are critical factors as whether or not your immune system is functioning at its peak level. A complete action plan is then designed and implemented to restore and balance your immune system.

U.S. Ranks Dead Last Among 19 Nations in Preventive Medicine
The story below, courtesy of Natural News.com, is an eye opener for most people. Who would think the richest country in the world would be in this situation? The fact is we are. I've dedicated my life and my practice to solving this problem.
Dr. Lida Ghaderi http://Cenigent.com
(NaturalNews) The United States ranks worst among developed nations in the number of preventable deaths, according to a study conducted by researchers from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and published in the journal Health Affairs.Researchers tracked how many preventable deaths took place in 19 developed nations between 2002 and 2003. A preventable death was defined as one that would not have occurred if the patient had access to timely and effective health care.
The United States ranked dead last, with 109.7 preventable deaths for every 100,000 people. France came in first, with 64.8, followed by Japan and Australia, with 71.2 and 71.3, respectively. Following Australia, in order, were: Spain, Italy, Canada, Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden, Greece, Austria, Germany, Finland, New Zealand, Denmark, Britain, Ireland, Portugal and the United States.
If the U.S. health care system functioned as well as that of France, 101,000 fewer people would die each year, the researchers found. According to researcher Ellen Nolte, the poor showing of the United States came largely from the large number of U.S. residents that lack health insurance - 47 million, or more than 15 percent. "I think health care in the United States is pretty good if you have access," Nolte said. "But if you don't, I think that's the main problem, isn't it?" In preventable death data from 1997-1998, France and Japan still ranked first and second, respectively.
At that time, the United States ranked 15th. The drop in the U.S. ranking came from the fact that while preventable deaths decreased an average of 16 percent in the 19 countries between 1998 and 2003, the U.S. decrease was only 4 percent. "It is startling to see the United States falling even farther behind on this crucial indicator of health system performance," said Cathy Schoen, senior vice president of the health policy foundation Commonwealth Fund, noting that "other countries are reducing these preventable deaths more rapidly, yet spending far less."
