Care philosophy
Where it is true that we cannot choose our genetics, it is also true that we have a say in how we express most of them.
The field of genetics tells us which disease we will be genetically predisposed to, and the field of epigenetics tells us how those genes will turn on…or off! 40% of our genetics are concrete and cannot be reversed, however, 60% of our genes are only expressed by the way we methylate.
[DNA methylation is a biological process by which methyl groups are added to the DNA molecule. Methylation can change the activity of a DNA segment without changing the sequence. When located in a gene promoter, DNA methylation typically acts to repress gene transcription. In mammals, DNA methylation is essential for normal development and is associated with a number of key processes including genomic imprinting, X-chromosome inactivation, repression of transposable elements, aging, and carcinogenesis]
Most genetic tests only check for the genes themselves, but they do not check for whether those genes are being expressed or repressed.
The purpose of our genetic testing is to determine what our biological age is, and to reverse it. For example, a 40-year-old man may live the kind of lifestyle that causes his genes to express like that of 60 years old. This type of methylation causes predisposition to morbidity and mortality.
Our tests will not only evaluate the genetic age of the person but will also create a tailored intervention to reverse genetic aging. Imagine being 60 and having the type of metabolism of a 40-year-old. Yes! it is possible,
