Core Definitions

Why Physiological Rights Go Beyond the Right to Food

Physiological rights are irreducible to the right to food — many physiological parameters cannot be maintained or restored through diet alone.

Inadequacy of the Right to Health

The limits of the State's obligation of means — why the right to health as currently framed fails to guarantee individual physiological integrity.

Physiological Rights

The full set of essential physiological needs that must be actively met to enable a person to live fully — a concrete, measurable complement to the right to health.

Rights-Based Medicine vs Evidence-Based Medicine

Integrating ethics and rights into medical decision-making — why the right to physiological integrity cannot be subordinated to the availability of clinical trial evidence.
