GENETIC TESTING CAN REVEAL RISK FACTORS FOR DEVELOPING CERTAIN HEALTH CONDITIONS

Eating right, exercising, and getting the proper amount of sleep are important factors in living a healthy lifestyle. However, sometimes no matter what you do, you may still battle hypertension, be susceptible to cardiovascular disease, or face the possibility of dealing with cancer. The reason is because your genetics play a significant role in your health. Understanding your risks, knowing how to mitigate them, and staying healthy are all made easier when you know the genes that you have inherited.

Brio Functional Medicine offers genetic testing that can be used to create a truly individualized treatment plan for you. By using DNA testing to sequence your genome, we can help you identify the things to which you may be inherently susceptible no matter the amount of healthy living you practice. After your genome is physically mapped, our team will help you interpret the results and make the proper recommendations to help you live your healthiest possible life.

Genetic testing can reveal risk factors for developing certain health conditions like cardiovascular disease or cancer, dietary and nutrient shortcomings that may require your attention, and your body’s detoxification function. Gene identification is a critical part of your ability to get and stay healthy.

Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do to change your genetic background. But, you can use all of the information in your family history to ensure that you do all of the things possible to avoid potentially cataclysmic events. Knowledge is power and when you know your family’s genomics, you can increase the likelihood that you will not face the same issues that so many in your family have already faced.

If you are interested in giving yourself the chance to live the healthiest possible lifestyle, call Brio Functional Medicine. Our team is ready to assist you through the use of genomic technologies and to help you make the best possible lifestyle choices.
