DNA Testing

DNA Testing: What You Need to Know

GenAge Center provides DNA testing that helps clients understand unique gene variations and how they affect their bodies and functions. For instance, some genes govern how susceptible you are to developing diabetes, heart disease and inflammation. Other genes influence how sensitive you are to eating carbohydrates, fats and proteins, and yet others affect how you should exercise for the best response. There are more detailed tests, such as for brain health and hormones. DNA testing allows the GenAge team to create a precise health and wellness plan tailored to your unique makeup.

What to Expect

When you visit GenAge Center for DNA testing, here’s what you can expect:

​

  1. DNA test – We use the DNACore test from dnalife® (Nordic Labs). The test kit includes instructions, including supplies to obtain and ship the samples of dried blood drops needed. This test is easy to self-administer, or we can administer it for you. After being mailed for processing, the results will be available in 2-3 weeks.

  2. Interpretation consultation – You may choose whether to self-interpret or to obtain a medical consultation to help interpret your results and answer your questions.  

 

If you choose an interpretation consultation, our team will design an individualized program for you. We will help you stay accountable, monitor your progress, and adjust your nutrition and exercise plans along the way. For some clients, medications or supplements may be recommended.
