If you have been struggling to find answers and have “tried everything” without getting results, Forum Health Akron can help. It’s time to to look into your genes and how they are expressing.
Gathering a health history is key to collecting valuable clues to why symptoms are manifesting. This is an important step in learning about the way the individual's genes are expressing.
The other part of genetic expression is identifying things which can trigger an immune or inflammation response. These triggers send signals to our genes and can lead to an imbalance or overburdened pathway. It is an often overlooked set of clues!
We all have variants, thousands of them! They are our building blocks that our body uses to respond to the environment. It is a bi-directional relationship between our genes and things which influence our genes - from diet, lifestyle, toxins, and pathogens.
We offer genetic testing in Akron, Ohio 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!
