Foundational Panel & Report
Overview
- The Foundational Panel is a one-time, deep-dive assessment of your genetic health, designed to reveal your unique predispositions across a wide range of health domains. Using Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) algorithms, this panel evaluates more than 140 key SNPs that influence your metabolism, cognitive health, emotional resilience, inflammation, nutrient absorption, aging, and food sensitivities.
- It’s more than just a test, it's your genetic health foundation, empowering both patients and providers to make science-based decisions for a longer, healthier, and more vibrant life.
- Provide your patients with expert, precision-based guidance on nutrition, lifestyle, supplements and laboratory tests tailored to their unique genetic profile to support long-term health optimization.
