DNA Heart Health Test by CERASCREEN – Individual Nutrient Requirements for Your Blood Vessels | Recommendations for Protecting Your Heart Health | Professional Laboratory I Detailed Results Repo

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) affect around seven million people in the UK, and they are a significant cause of disability and death. Your DNA contains information about which cardiovascular problems your body might be susceptible to â€“ if you are aware of these risks, you can take targeted preventive action and help keep your heart and vessels healthy.

Why test heart health genes?

No doubt you are familiar with stories about people who smoke heavily, eat unhealthy food, are not averse to alcohol and yet live beyond 90 years. When we say â€˜good geneticsâ€™, we say – and thereby subconsciously assume that our DNA also influences our heart health.

One thing is for sure: cardiovascular diseases and their consequences, such as strokes and heart attacks, can affect anyone. You should not rely on good genetics. The individual risk of developing certain problems with heart and vessels varies from one person to the next.

If you understand the genetic factors that are linked to cardiovascular health, you can incorporate specific measures in your daily life. This can involve the intake of fats, vitamins and minerals, as well as physical exercise, reducing stress or paying attention to alcohol and nicotine consumption.

The following aspects of heart health are investigated:

Sensitivity to saturated fatty acids
Risk of increased cholesterol levels
Tendency to develop oxidative stress
Risk of increased homocysteine levels
Tendency to develop inflammation of the heart and vessels
