Ever wonder what your biological age is? And we’re not talking about your chronological or calendar age. Biological age measures your age based on biological markets like the condition of your blood or cells which are influenced by diet, lifestyle and other factors. By measuring your biological age through epigenetics testing, you can determine how far through your lifecycle you are.
In this video, Dr. Tara Scott of Forum Health Akron, also known as the hormone guru, shares a short presentation on epigenetics - the science of how genes are expressed or how they’re turned on or off based on their environment.
Like the structure of a home, your DNA builds who you are. Just as it’s possible to remodel your home to make it better, it’s also possible to influence your genetic code to make you healthier and happier.
Genetic testing shows your Forum Health team your specific health risks based on your DNA, so they can minimize those risks and maximize your health. First, your provider obtains your DNA through a sample of your saliva. It’s then analyzed using highly advanced software that determines what your genetic blueprint means for you.
These results provide a powerful treatment tool, decoding your genetic strengths and weaknesses and giving your team an amazing ability to personalize your treatment. Based on your DNA, your team will customize a treatment plan that keeps you in long-term optimal health.
At Forum Health Akron, we offer genetic testing for a variety of conditions. Genetic alterations, or SNPs, can cause your enzymes to work faster or slower than normal. This could cause you to not get rid of hormones or toxins correctly. Genetic alterations could also put you at risk for certain diseases. With a genetic evaluation, we feel it doesn’t tell you how you are going to die, but rather how to live!
