Genetic Testing for Biggest Losers!

by

Want to join the ranks of the biggest losers without being humiliated on TV?  There is genetic testing available to determine which diet and lifestyle changes will work the best for your particular genetic variation.

Recently my daughter has ordered a genetic test for health that detects certain variations influencing the nutrient digestion and metabolism.  Her particular results outline the study of 16 different genes with 5 variations on 4 genes that affect fat metabolism.  The personal report explained how the variations affected amino acid production in the gut that caused the absorption of fat.  She was given detailed recommendations on diet, exercise, and lifestyle to move her forward toward optimal health.  We were very impressed with the ease of the testing and the information returned to her.  With this new testing available, the myriad of choices for weight loss can be narrowed down to match  individual metabolism.  Genetic testing for the biggest losers here we come.
