Will the StrateGene Report explain my chronic health issues or report on diseases?Updated 4 months ago

No, StrateGene does not explain your chronic health issues or report on diseases.

Instead, StrateGene may help identify genetic variations that increase your susceptibility to various health problems. For example, if you’re struggling with insomnia, there may be genetic variations slowing your ability to eliminate excitatory neurotransmitters. This increases your susceptibility to insomnia, yes. However, one person may have the exact same genetic variants as you have and they can fall asleep just fine. Most chronic health issues are due to environmental issues. Change the environment, mindset, and nutrients, and these genetic susceptibilities become only that: susceptibilities.

StrateGene does not report any genetic variants which are associated with disease states. For example, genetic-based diseases such as Cystic Fibrosis, Hemochromatosis, and Celiac Disease are not identified by StrateGene. Instead, StrateGene is designed to help you identify genetic variations that may increase or decrease your optimal genetic function which, in turn, may increase your susceptibility to various diseases or health problems. Think of StrateGene as supporting disease prevention and assisting in health promotion.
