Epigenetic test and assessment TAKE CONTROL OVER YOUR BIOLOGICAL AGING
EPIGENETICS SCIENCE Epigenetics, means ‘on top of’ genetics. It studies the mechanisms that affect how our genes behave, specifically the mechanisms that switch genes “on” and “off”. Epigenetic processes are closely linked to wellbeing, aging and diseases, and are affected by our environment and lifestyles.
« Epigenetic signatures are indeed shaped by the food we eat, how we sleep, our stress levels, our physical activity, the environment we live in.»
A STEP TOWARDS A HEALTHIER FUTURE Scientific research shows that our lifestyle and the daily choices we make can influence the epigenetic signatures on our DNA. Those influences can be summarized by how much older or younger you are, offering an unparalleled insight on how healthily you will age. You can reverse the impact of any negative lifestyle choices in the past and help yourself increase your longevity.
