Genetic Testing

Genetic Testing

Though DNA is not necessarily our destiny, many illnesses often pronounce themselves or are exacerbated due to genetic variations (also known as “SNPs” = single nucleotide polymorphisms), which, when under the influence of epigenetic influences (poor diet, stress, inadequate nutrition, hidden infections, etc) leads to the disease state. Some tests help identify how your body handles oxidative stress, creates necessary antioxidants like glutathione, detoxify toxic chemicals or activate certain nutrients like folate or B12 all of which are crucial to a successful health restoration program. We often assess several of these including MTHFR, COMT, SOD, GPX, etc but can also help in obtaining a full genetic assessment of methylation or more, if your case warrants it.
