Learn how your gut microbiome influences the expression of your core circadian rhythm genes.
Genetic variants that increase susceptibility to Lyme disease
Lyme disease recovery can vary. Whether you recover quickly or have chronic symptoms that include joint pain or arthritis, it may be due to the genetic variants that you carry.
Are you allergic to grass pollen? It may be genetic.
Allergies are usually due to a mix of genetic susceptibility and being exposed to certain triggering molecules. Several different gene variants have ties to an increased risk of grass pollen allergies.
Increased Inflammation and IL-17A Genetic Variants
Some people have a more sensitive immune system and are more prone to inflammatory reactions. We need a balance in the body between fighting off pathogens and not having too much of an inflammatory response. Learn more about what triggers inflammation and how your genes play a part.
