What genetic testing is actually beneficial for you, and is your genetic data safe?

Let's talk genetic testing. In the past, we've used data from ancestry.com and 23 andme when our patients have gotten the genetic testing done through them where then you could get the raw data and run it through neutra hacker. And this still is a good option to be able to look at many of the different snips that we like

to treat and that we deal with in our clinics. But I have a much more elegant option for you. Uh and that's the maxgen the works test that we offer right through Dan Perser MD. We've recently redeveloped that panel to cover all of the snips that we really deal with, the

ones that we feel we are most capable of treating and offering really good solutions to, including this test covers 15 of the 17 known homoyine snips. That means if you have any of these snips, homozygous in any of these snips that

you're going to have an overabundance of homoyine in your body and this causes bad inflammation uh by raising cytoines throughout your body, pro-inflammatory molecules. So if you happen to have any of these these homoyine snips, you're not going to have a good time. You're

going to be in a lot of pain and not very happy and the risk of heart attack and stroke are greatly increased. But there's something we can do to help get around that. So, first of all, get the genetic testing so you can see if you have these issues as well as many other snips, uh, including MTHFR and other

methylation snips, many other very important snips that we'll get into in another video. But with the homoyine, as you've seen Dr. Purser and I talked about in the past the pathway of taking methionine into homoyine into glutathione the transuleration pathway

is disrupted if you have these gene snips and if you have the deficiencies caused by these gene snips. So our way of treatment instead of doing a low methionine diet to lower homocyine levels we deal with the fixed homoyine levels by introducing lots of exogenous

glutathione to the system. That means taking a validated and res reduced absorbable and stable version of glutathione to help protect your body against the overactivity of homocyine

and the cytoines it produces. That's called hyperhomocyinemmia. So introduce a ton of reduced glutathione to the system and homoyine levels even though they may be fixed the cytoine levels that are produced lower. You finally get in control of it. You get ahead of it. That's the beauty of

varss glutathione providing this amazing benefit. So look at that genetic testing, see if you have any of these gene snips and then make sure to be taking your bars glutathione. That's the number one thing we instruct every single one of our patients. It's the best thing you can be doing for yourself now and for the future. Take care.
