Frequently Asked Questions about Precision Genetic Testing
What is Genetic Testing?
Genetic testing is a scientific way to discover which, if any, genetic predispositions leave the body at potential risk for disease and certain biological conditions that can influence the typical path of aging and overall health. Genetic testing analyzes your DNA to identify gene variations that could impact your health, wellness, and how your body reacts to diet, exercise, and other environmental factors. This testing helps us customize health and weight loss programs that are genuinely effective for you.
Some people opt for genetic testing due to family medical history, while others want to have an idea if there are any inclinations to disease and medical conditions. Those who have been previously diagnosed with a disease such as cancer find that genetic testing provides valuable answers to help them better manage the illness.
Not all genetic tests show the same gene path, which is why we recommend Precision Genetic Testing. This cutting-edge type of gene testing that examines your DNA to identify specific genetic markers that influence metabolism, nutrient absorption, and overall health. Our comprehensive test provides:
- A detailed snapshot of your genetic well-being that allows us to develop highly personalized health interventions for maximum health and wellness.
- The ability to move forward in life armed with vital knowledge to live your best life.
Who is Genetic Testing For?
Genetic testing is for anyone who wants better insight into their health, genetic risk for disease, and an overall understanding of genetic tendencies and how they can impact aging. These tests are sometimes recommended if you or a relative has been diagnosed with cancer or another disease at an early age.
Our Precision Genetic Testing is unique and is conducted in collaboration with leading state-of-the-art genetic labs specializing in comprehensive genomic analysis. Our team of expert genetic counselors and health coaches will guide you through the entire process and explain your results thoroughly so you can make meaningful changes. A single test can afford you lifelong insights into your health that will empower you to take control of your well-being.
How long until I receive my results?
The estimated turnaround time for your genetic testing results is about 3 weeks.
How do you collect my DNA?
We use a simple cheek swab to collect your DNA. It's quick, noninvasive, and easy.
Should I be concerned about checking my DNA?
There's no need for concern. Understanding your genetic information is valuable, and regardless of the results, we will create a program that optimally suits your needs.
Do you check for genetics beyond weight loss genes?
Yes, we offer comprehensive genetic testing that can examine various genetic markers, not just those related to weight loss. This allows us to provide insights into a broader range of health aspects.
How is the information delivered?
Your genetic test results are delivered through our app, which includes a complete guide and breakdown of each gene report. This allows you to understand and access your genetic information easily.
What genes do you test for?
We can test for tens of thousands of genes. Some of the popular genes we analyze include:
- FTO (Fat Mass and Obesity Associated Gene): Often referred to as the "obesity gene," it is strongly linked to increased risk of obesity and affects how your body stores fat.
- MC4R (Melanocortin 4 Receptor): Associated with appetite regulation and calorie expenditure.
- APOE (Apolipoprotein E): Related to cholesterol and lipid metabolism, influencing heart health.
- MTHFR (Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase): Affects folate metabolism and is linked to a variety of health conditions including cardiovascular disease and mental health.
- COMT (Catechol-O-methyltransferase): Impacts dopamine levels in the brain and is associated with pain perception and mood regulation.
- VDR (Vitamin D Receptor): Influences bone health and immune function by affecting how your body uses vitamin D.
