Dr. Romi Fung, ND, M.Sc, Ph.D. (cand.), a naturopathic physician from Richmond was named the Young Entrepreneur of the Year by the Richmond Chamber of Commerce.

Recognized at the recent Business Excellence Awards, the 34-year-old believes health involves optimizing one’s capabilities rather than merely being disease-free.

Viewing dementia as more than just a brain condition, Fung acknowledges the interplay between body and brain, where chronic diseases can lead to cognitive decline through biochemical connections.

The Business Excellence Awards were held on Nov. 22 at River Rock Casino.
