Your genetic data is a gold mine of information about your health and ways to prevent chronic diseases.
If you are just getting started with learning about your genes, keep in mind that most chronic issues are caused by the combination of genetics and environmental factors (diet, lifestyle, sleep, microbiome).
We are all unique! You can use your genetic raw data to find out the personalized ways to prevent or reverse chronic diseases. It’s all about what works for YOU.
