Epigenomics Testing is a cutting-edge approach that examines how your behaviours and environment can influence gene activity without altering the DNA sequence itself. This comprehensive test includes the analysis of telomere length, DNA methylation, and organ health to provide a holistic view of your genetic regulation and overall well-being.
Telomeres are protective caps at the ends of your chromosomes that shorten as you age. Measuring telomere length can provide insights into your biological age and cellular health. Shorter telomeres are associated with aging and an increased risk of age-related diseases, while longer telomeres indicate better cellular health and longevity. This test helps you understand how lifestyle factors, such as stress, diet, and exercise, are impacting your telomere length and overall aging process
DNA methylation involves the addition of methyl groups to your DNA, which can turn genes on or off without changing the DNA sequence. This process plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression and maintaining normal cellular function. Abnormal DNA methylation patterns are linked to various health conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders. By analyzing your DNA methylation profile, this test provides insights into how environmental factors and lifestyle choices are influencing your gene activity and health
Epigenomic markers provide valuable information about the health of specific organs, such as the liver, heart, and brain. By examining these markers, this test detects early signs of disease, monitor organ function, and assess the impact of lifestyle and environmental factors on your organ health. This comprehensive analysis helps you take proactive steps to maintain and improve the health of your vital organs, ensuring better overall well-being
