Autoimmune & Inflammation
Genetics plays a big role in your immune system. For some, increased inflammation is due to genetic variants in the inflammatory-related genes.
In most autoimmune diseases, there is a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Understanding the genetic variants that you carry may help you to find the right solutions for YOU.
Psoriasis Genes
Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition that causes dry, sometimes itchy patches of skin. It is caused by the immune system attacking your skin cells, speeding up the turnover of the cells. Genetics plays a role in your susceptibility
TNF-Alpha
Do you feel like you are always dealing with inflammation? Joint pain, food sensitivity, etc? Perhaps you are genetically geared towards a higher inflammatory response. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is an inflammatory cytokine that acts as a signaling molecule in our immune system.
Celiac Disease
Celiac disease is caused by a combination of environmental factors (eating gluten, other factors) and having the genetic variants that cause susceptibility to the disease. Without the genetic susceptibility, you won’t have celiac.
