TNF-alpha is a key inflammatory cytokine linked to autoimmune, cardiovascular, mood, and neurodegenerative diseases. Learn how TNF gene variants affect your risk and potential natural TNF inhibitors.
Genetic variants can increase susceptibility to blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction. This can increase the risk of Alzheimer’s, ADHD, and mood disorders.
Genes affect how well semaglutide (Ozempic) and tirzepatide work. Check your GLP-1 receptor gene variants linked to weight loss response. Genotype report included.
Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is essential for coenzyme A synthesis and brain energy. Learn about B5 deficiency, PANK2 mutations, and links to Alzheimer’s.
BCHE variants can lower butyrylcholinesterase activity. See implications for anesthesia, nightshades, pesticide susceptibility, immunity, and ghrelin.
Explore the research about how nicotinamide riboside (NR) and NMN are being used to reverse aging. Learn about how your genes naturally affect your NAD+ levels and how this interacts with the aging process.
ABCB1 encodes P-glycoprotein, a transporter that removes toxins – and medications – from the body. Genetic variants in the ABCB1 gene can affect how well a medication works for you.
Explore NLRP3 inflammasome genetics: How variants drive chronic inflammation in Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and autoimmune diseases. Discover triggers, health risks, and lifehacks like zinc & vitamin D to modulate it.
Find out your APOE type, understand your Alzheimer’s risk by genotype, sex, and ancestry, and learn about real prevention strategies.
Methylene blue has neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties, but it isn’t for everyone. Learn about the genetic variants that throw a caution flag on this one.
Two natural fibrinolytics to reduce clotting are nattokinase and lumbrokinase. Learn more about these options based upon the newest research and clinical trials.
Just like there are genetic variants that increase the risk of Alzheimer’s, there are also variants that protect against this disease. Check your genetic data to get a better picture of your risk factors. (Member’s article)
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor in the production of neurotransmitters and nitric oxide. Genetic variants impact BH4 levels which can affect heart disease, cognitive function, and immune response.
Plasmalogen levels in the brain are key to brain health. Low plasmalogen is linked to Alzheimer’s and ME/CFS. Healthy ways to boost your levels.
Recent clinical trials show that saffron extract is as effective as standard medications in some people for ADHD, Alzheimer’s, major depressive disorder, and high cholesterol.
Lion’s mane mushrooms have a long history of being used as a medicinal food for increasing energy, improving nerve function, and boosting brain power.
The Klotho protein is involved in many of the diseases of aging. Learn more about this gene and find out how your Klotho variants may impact healthy aging.
New research suggests the benefits of luteolin (a flavonoid found in fruits, vegetables, and herbs) may include anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties.
Prions are able to infect, causing the normal protein around them to also misfold. These misfolded proteins aggregate to cause neurogenerative disease. Susceptibility to prion diseases depends in part on your genes.
Several genes have been identified as longevity genes, linked to an increase in lifespan. Most importantly, these particular genetic variants show links to a longer ‘healthspan’. Check your genetic data to see if you carry the FOXO3A and IGF1R variants associated with healthy longevity.
Learn how new research on brain aging and dementia connects the serotonin 2A receptor with psychedelics, brain aging, and Alzheimer’s.
Melatonin is important for setting your circadian rhythm and for immune health. Dig into the details on melatonin supplements, scientific research, and more.
The TREM2 gene is important in how the brain’s immune system functions. Learn how variants in this gene impact the risk for Alzheimer’s disease.
Our body has built-in antioxidants that fight against cellular stress. The superoxide dismutase enzyme fights against oxidative stress in your cells.
Studies show that lithium in ground water is linked to lower levels of Alzheimers, depression, and aggression. Find out how lithium may be important in Alzheimer’s prevention.
