My DNA results came in!!! I feel empowered to make the lifestyle changes to address my specific deficiencies.
DNA testing allows us to focus on our specific metabolic challenges that need support in order to minimize the chances of getting diseases we would otherwise be at risk for.
The biggest area of concern for me is that I have 7 homozygous genetic variants that impact the VDR (Vitamin D Receptor).
Genetic variants in the VDR can interfere with the ability to absorb Vitamin D. The immune system is dependent on adequate Vitamin D levels, therefore variants in the VDR genes can lead to low immune function, bone density issues, mood issues, cancer and more.
Low function of the VDR can also cause low levels of dopamine, serotonin and adrenal hormones which can lead to fatigue, poor memory function and depression.
Specific nutritional support can help fill in the gaps left by this genetic variance. Taking Vitamin D with other certain supplements can have a synergistic effect. I will benefit from increasing my intake of Vitamin D along with Vitamin K2, Vitamin A, Magnesium and Calcium.
It’s an exciting time in the field of PERSONALIZED MEDICINE! A DNA metabolic report is included in the monthly wellness membership program.
