GENETICS

How genes influence our health The human body consists of about 50 trillion individual cells. Most of these cells have a nucleus which contains 46 chromosomes. A chromosome consists of a very closely wound thread, the DNA "double helix."

A = healthy G = risk

DNA, the genetic code, is the blueprint of the human body. This genetic code consists of approximately 3.1 billion molecules, which are each represented by a letter. About 1% of this code makes up the genes. Each gene is an instruction for the body, usually with a single function.

For example, some genes tell the body how to generate the iris. Differences in these genes produce different eye colors. Every function of the body is controlled by one or more genes, including the way we process food and medicine.

Thrombosis gene (FV)

Our genes are not completely error-free. The genes of each person are changed slightly by environmental effects. Most of these changes have no effect. A small number have a harmful effect. An even tinier number can produce a beneficial effect. Parents pass these changes, including defects, to their children. Thus most of our genetic defects are inherited from our parents.

In addition, our genes developed to help us live in the primitive world, and some of the traits in our genes can interact with our modern environment to create negative effects on our world.

For example, the genetic predisposition to build up fat quickly and lose it slowly is beneficial for people who go through times when food is scarce: they will have a better chance of

Page 1 of 81

surviving because their bodies use fat efficiently. However, in the modern world, this trait is harmful because it programs the body to gain weight quickly and lose weight slowly. Genes increase our risk of heart attacks, trigger asthma and allergies, cause lactose intolerance, and many other disorders.

Genetic traits can affect our health. While some genetic defects always cause disease, most genetic traits just increase our risk of getting a disease. For example, a person may have genes that increase their risk for diabetes. However, not everyone at risk for diabetes actually develops the disease. Furthermore, even people with a high risk of diabetes can lower their risk with the right diet and exercise plan. Other genetic traits only cause illness when they are triggered by a specific environmental feature. For example, lactose intolerance is a genetic condition that causes a person who drinks milk to become ill. However, a lactose-intolerant person who never drinks milk will not have any symptoms.

Thanks to the latest technologies, it is now possible to test specific genes to determine if you have genetic traits that are linked to various diseases. Based on the results of the analysis, we can develop a prevention program that significantly reduces your personal disease risk and helps you stay healthy.

A healthy lifestyle will decrease your risk of many diseases whether or not you have specific information about your genetic traits. However, DNA Plus provides you with additional information that may point out other changes to your lifestyle that are not part of standard medical advice. There are many examples, but one of the traits we test for is a gene that impairs your body’s ability to absorb iron. If you have this trait, we will recommend that you take iron supplements beyond the general recommendations so that your body absorbs all the iron you need.

Experts estimate that every person carries about 2,000 genetic defects, which may affect their health, and, in some cases, cause illnesses. A variety of factors can cause changes in our genes (also called mutations). In a few cases, these mutations can benefit us. However, the vast majority either have no effect or have a negative impact on our health.

The best-known cause of mutations, as depicted in the media and Hollywood, is radioactivity.

Radioactive rays and particles actually impact the DNA in our cells and physically alter our genes. In the movies, these changes or mutations often lead to the creation of monsters like Godzilla, or characters with supernatural powers, as in X-Men. In reality, they mostly go unnoticed or cause deadly diseases, such as cancer, or congenital abnormality for newborns.

Mutations are also caused by substances such as carbon, which can be ingested from burnt food. Carbon enters the cells and damages our genes, which can lead to colon cancer, among other form of cancer. UV radiation from the sun can also damage our genes and cause diseases such as skin cancer.

External influences can affect individual genes and disrupt their function, but the majority of our defective genes are inherited from our parents. Each embryo receives half of its genes from the father and half of its genes from the mother, resulting in a new human being with some of the characteristics of each parent. The genetic defects are unfortunately passed together with these genes; for example, a genetic defect that causes heart attack may pass from the father to the child and further to the grandchild and so on, leading to passing the same disease to each generation. Whether the genetic defect is passed, however, is determined randomly, and it may be that some of the grandchildren carry the defective gene and others do not.

Each person is the unique product of generations of accumulation and combination of different genetic traits. Some of those traits have negative effects on our health. With the latest technology, it is now finally possible to examine one's genes and determine his personal health risks and strengths. In many cases, taking advantage of this knowledge, and following some precautionary measures, the diseases may even be prevented. This is the next step in preventive medicine and a new generation of health care.

PHARMACO GENETICS

How drugs operate in our body Each person reacts differently to drugs. Some people benefit significant from a particular medication, while others experience side effects with symptoms that can range from mild to fatal. According to estimates, approximately 7% of patients suffer from severe adverse reactions and about 0.4% suffer fatal consequences. Adverse reactions to drugs are the fifth most frequent cause of death in the Western world. In most cases, these reactions are determined by inherited genetic variations or interactions between certain drugs.

The path of drugs through our body

drug is taken Drug shows effect

enzyme gene

drug is prepared for breakdown by enzyme

If a drug is taken or injected with a needle, it first enters the bloodstream, through which it reaches the target organ.

The drug is recognised by certain enzymes which break it down and remove it from the bloodstream.

This causes most drugs to lose their effect. The deactivated drug is then filtered out of the blood with the help of the kidney and finally excreted with urine.

drug enters urine

Page 4 of 81

Long-term Drug Treatment Due to the fact that many drugs operate over a long period of time, they need to be taken in regular intervals to ensure that the amount of the drug in the bloodstream is kept in the correct range.

Genetic defects inhibit the break down of the drug Unfortunately, many people carry a defect in one of the enzyme-producing genes that are crucial in this process.

enzyme gene

drug is not filtered out of bloodstream

The drug still enters the blood circulation and has its effect, but enzymes do not break it down and it remains in the body for a significantly longer period of time. This is only a minor problem after only one dose, but when a person takes warfarin three times a day, the level of warfarin in the blood gradually increases until it leads to toxic side effects.

Page 5 of 81

The problem with regular administration of a drug when there is a genetic defect In the case of blood thinners, drug action is at the right level in the beginning of therapy, but the concentration of the drug rises constantly with every administration until it reaches to the point of causing uncontrolled bleeding.

genetic defect slows breakdown of drug

toxic concentration >>> adverse reactions

This means that the 20% of the population that carry a genetic defect need a significantly lower dose of warfarin because the usual dose could lead to serious adverse reactions.

Prodrugs, the precursors of active drugs Some drugs, so-called "prodrugs", are taken in an inactive form and are only activated by the enzymes of the body. Examples for this kind of drugs include the cancerprevention drug tamoxifen and the painkiller codeine.

A prodrug enters the bloodstream in its inactive form. Enzymes in the blood transform it into its active form, and then it takes effect.

For example, the painkiller codeine is transformed into morphine in this way and then relieves pain.

drug is taken

enzyme gene

Drug is activated by enzyme Drug shows effect

drug enters urine

In some people, the enzyme that converts a specific prodrug into a drug does not function, so that the drug never has an effect on the body, other than potential side effects.

In the case of codeine, there is no pain relief after taking the drug and an alternative drug needs to be chosen.

In case of tamoxifen, a drug that prevents the emergence of breast cancer, the drug's ineffectiveness will only be discovered if cancer develops.

Dosage instructions for the physician This genetic analysis provides information on the rate of absorption of various medications.

This information is one factor among many that should be used to determine the optimal dosage of a medication. This data cannot replace your professional opinion and responsibility for proper dosage. With that in mind, the genetic analysis indicates that the following dosages would generally be appropriate for a patient with this genetic profile:

Recommended dosage: ~100% This is the normal state when the relevant genes do not contain any performance-reducing gene variations. Administrate the medication as usual.

Recommended dosage: ~20%, ~50%, ~70% etc.

The enzymes involved in the absorption of this medication have limited function and the absorption rate is probably very low. Alternative compounds will most likely be more effective.

If absolutely necessary, use this drug with close surveillance for effectiveness and side effects.

Recommended dosage: 0% The enzymes involved in the absorption of this medication have limited function and the absorption rate is probably very low. Alternative compounds will most likely be more effective.

LEGEND: ULTRA RAPID METABOLIZER = The enzymes for this group of drugs are too active and convert the medication too fast and remove it from the body. EXTENSIVE METABOLIZER = enzymes are functional and modify and break down certain drugs rapidly.

INTERMEDIATE METABOLIZER = enzymes are inhibited or produced at a lower rate leading to a slower and break down of certain drugs. POOR METABOLIZER = no functional enzymes are being produced and so certain drugs are not broken down or metabolized correctly.

ANDROLOGY

Prostate The prostate is a sex gland. It lies below the bladder, near the beginning of the urethra, and is about the size and shape of a chestnut. It consists of several glands that produce a secretion that is discharged during ejaculation into the urethra, where it is mixed with the sperm. Thus, it plays an important role in reproduction. Unfortunately, the prostate is also associated with a number of diseases, some of which can be serious or even fatal. As a result, every man should undergo an annual examination of the prostate after the age of 45.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland caused by the abnormal proliferation of certain cells. The disease is very common and usually develops with age. The risk of an enlarged prostate depends on genetic and lifestyle factors. About 10-20% of men between age 50 and 59 have this condition, and 25-35% of men in between 60 and 69. In contrast to prostate cancer, the symptoms of prostate enlargement develop very rapidly.

Typical symptoms are: pain during urination; frequent urination; difficult, long-lasting urination supported by abdominal pressure.

If the bladder is significantly obstructed, urine may accumulate in the kidney, which can cause a life-threatening condition. An enlarged prostate can be treated either with medication, depending on the extent, or reduced surgically using a laser beam.

However, the best option remains prevention. Since benign enlargement of the prostate is closely related to an unfortunate combination of genes and lifestyle, modifications in lifestyle can greatly reduce the risk of disease for genetically predisposed people.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers for men. About 15% of men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point in life. In most cases, prostate cancer does

not produce symptoms until it has progressed, and so it is usually detected only at a later stage through symptoms such as urinary symptoms, bone pain, weight loss, and anemia. The main complaints arising are referring to urination disorders: delayed onset, a weak jet, drip or the interruption of the urinary stream during urination. Residual urine often remains in the bladder. Other frequently observed symptoms include: increased or predominantly nocturnal urination, frequent urination in small quantities, difficulty, or pain when urinating.

Due to pressure damage to nerves of the sacrum area, erection problems may also occur. Visible blood in the urine or sperm is rare but significant. A prostate tumor does not cause discomfort, and so symptoms usually appear only after the tumor has spread to nearby lymph nodes or into the bones. At that point, the most common symptoms are pain in the spine and pelvis. In most cases, bone metastases are the predominant disease, and they are also the most common cause of death from prostate cancer. The advanced stage is often accompanied by anemia and weight loss.

Prostate cancer can only be treated successfully before it has spread, so early detection is crucial for effective treatment.

That is why men over the age of 45 should be tested annually for prostate cancer.

Page 16 of 81

Treatment options include surgery with complete removal of the prostate, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and in some cases, chemotherapy.

If the cancer is treated early, before spreading to other tissues, the 5-year survival rate is approximately 90%. After the cancer spreads, the 5-years survival rate is only around 35%, which is why early detection is so important.

The lifetime risk for the diagnosis of "prostate cancer" is about 11%. It is estimated that approximately 20% of patients with prostate cancer die. About half of the cases of prostate cancer are caused by genetic variations. Now it is possible to test these genes and to determine the personal risk prior to the occurrence of prostate cancer. If the risk is significantly increased, a preventive program can significantly reduce the risk of developing of the disease.

Additionally, you can detect potential diseases at an early stage through a more intensive monitoring program and allow for its timely treatment. More serious and unpleasant consequences can be prevented in most cases.

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM

Cardiovascular Disease Cholesterol and triglycerides are vital fats our body uses to produce cell membranes, store energy, absorb fat-soluble vitamins and produce hormones. These fats are so essential that our body even produces cholesterol itself. This cholesterol is then transported and made available for cell growth all over the body via the bloodstream. In this manner, our body produces about 70% of the cholesterol it needs itself. The other 30% comes from what we eat.

The amount of cholesterol in your bloodstream goes up after every meal. To control this, your body has strict regulatory processes that maintain your blood cholesterol at normal levels. If there is too much cholesterol in your bloodstream, your body transports HDL to your liver, which filters it from your blood, lowering your cholesterol level. However, the liver will release LDL cholesterol into your bloodstream, which increases your cholesterol level. High cholesterol levels may cause arteriosclerosis, and so a low cholesterol level helps you stay healthy.

Because of this, HDL cholesterol--the kind transported to the liver--is called "good" cholesterol, whereas LDL cholesterol--which the liver emits into the bloodstream--is called "bad" cholesterol.

That is why it is important for your health to maintain a high HDL and a low LDL cholesterol level.

A number of genes are responsible for regulating cholesterol and triglyceride levels or for increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. If you carry an adverse trait in one or more of these genes, you should pay special attention to your fat intake and metabolism. Since diet is the most significant influence on your body's lipid metabolism, it is important to follow a diet tailored to your genes.

Arrhythmia Long QT syndrome is a life-threatening disease that can lead to sudden cardiac death in people with otherwise perfect health.

The heartbeat is triggered by a recurring electrical pulse, which propagates through the heart. The time to initiate a heartbeat up to the point at which the cells are ready for the next heartbeat, is called the QT interval. If this interval is particularly long, it increases the risk of symptoms such as paroxysmal tachycardia, arrhythmia, vertigo or loss of consciousness. In severe cases, such episodes end in cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation. However, most people with this condition have no symptoms until a life-threatening condition develops. The symptoms usually occur during physical exertion or stressful situations. A resting ECG (a measurement of the heart rate in the resting state) and a gene analysis help to better identify the risk.

A long QT interval is usually not noticeable: more than half of the patients with long QT syndrome experience no symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they are caused by potentially lifethreatening heart rhythm disorders that are signs of serious disease. Palpitations may be sustained (more than 30 seconds) or intermittent, and sometimes remain unnoticed depending on the following: the duration and pulse rate, body position and the general constitution, dizziness, loss of consciousness or even cardiac arrest. Thus, they may lead to sudden cardiac death. Since tachycardia occurs suddenly and usually during exercise or in stressful situations, the symptoms are often unexpected, and observed because they affect our general state of well-being.

People with this genetic risk should take steps to minimize symptoms. The steps include medical heart rate monitoring in high-risk situations such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, morbid obesity, age over 55 years, extreme physical activity, and taking certain medications. If a prolonged QT interval is diagnosed in these situations, medical treatment may be necessary. Thanks to genetic analysis, you can find out if you are in a risk group and take the necessary precautions.

Serious consequences such as sudden death can usually be prevented.

Prevention You have an elevated risk for coronary disease, and so it is particularly important for you to take preventative measures to reduce your risk. You should take steps to keep your cholesterol and triglycerides within normal levels. Discuss this issue with your doctor, and start an observation program based on your doctor's recommendation. The preventive measures and treatment options for cholesterol and triglycerides are listed separately. Talk to your doctor about putting these measures into practice.

Preventive measures ➤ Do sports or regular exercise. The best exercises are endurance sports (walking, Nordic walking, cycling, swimming, weight training, etc.), and watch your weight. Ideally, you should do at least 30 minutes of exercises, 5 days a week. ➤ Smoking greatly increases your risk for vascular disease along with its many other health effects.

Quitting smoking is one of the most important ways to improve your health. ➤ Keep alcohol consumption low (no more than one alcoholic beverage per day). ➤ In general, eat low-fat meals (fish, poultry and lean meats are recommended, but fatty meats like sausages, bacon, and fat cheese should be reduced). ➤ You should also eat only low-fat dairy products, for example low-fat milk, low fat cheese and low-fat yogurt. ➤ Eat as little animal products as possible, and use mainly vegetable oils. ➤ Eat fruits and vegetables multiple times during the day.

Omega-3-fatty acids ➤ Omega-3 fatty acids are usually recommended for high cholesterol, but for certain genetic types it can also worsen HDL-cholesterol. Based on your genes, Omega-3 improves your cholesterol levels.

Medical treatment is recommended when changes to diet and exercise do not lower cholesterol and triglycerides to a normal level. There are multiple options: statins, bile acid binders, fibrates, niacin (vitamin B3), cholesterol synthesis and absorption inhibitors. Your doctor will decide which drug is suitable for you. It is particularly important to take action to prevent heart disease because treatments followed after symptoms develop can only slow down the progress of the disease.

QT interval and sudden cardiac death As you are predisposed to have a long QT interval, you should take the following precautions, to avoid more serious complications. For you, it is important to understand the situations that create risk and to monitor your heart closely.

If you are exposed to the following risk factors it is strongly recommended that you have a physician determine the length of the QT intervals: ➤ ➤ ➤ ➤

Ischemia (circulatory disorder) Diabetes type 2 (diabetes) Metabolic Syndrome (severe overweight) Age over 55

If you are engaged in vigorous or difficult physical labor, your electrolyte level will drop. During these Page 32 of 81

events, regular electrolyte level testing should be performed, to detect abnormalities and allow for timely treatment. Prior to the taking medication that can affect the QT interval, you should have a resting ECG should be performed. Talk to your doctor about your genetic risk and the medications you are taking. In the context of a possible pharmacogenetic investigation by our laboratory, due to a possible QT prolonging effect, these drugs may influence the results. Your doctor should assess this based on your QT interval.

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM

Thrombosis Thrombosis is a disease in which blood clots form in the bloodstream. These clots can clog certain blood vessels and reduce the flow of blood to the heart or to areas in the brain, leading to damage or even the death of the affected tissue. When the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off, a stroke occurs. If the blood supply to the heart is affected, it causes a heart attack. The most common form of thrombosis is a reduction of blood circulation in the legs by a blood clot. The danger here is that, if the clots dissolve, they can move and restrict the blood flow to the brain, the heart or the lungs.

Genetic screening tests for the detection of a risk of thrombosis are unfortunately rarely performed, and since there are no noticeable symptoms until the occurrence of thrombosis, most people do not know that they are genetically predisposed.

if you know your genetic health risk, you can take preemptive measures, and, in most cases, even prevent the occurrence of thrombosis.

Therefore, a genetic predisposition is usually not detected until after the occurrence of thrombosis; this, however, may have fatal consequences. Genetic screening tests are still far too rarely performed, although they will allow one to be aware of the increased risk, and take the necessary preemptive measures, in some cases even allowing him to avoid the disease altogether. Several genes prevent the formation of blood clots in the veins. If one of these genes is defective, it cannot perform its task, and the risk of forming a blood clot increases significantly. Everyone has two genes of each type, and about one in twenty people carries a defect in at least one gene, thus being a carrier with an approximately 8- fold higher risk of thrombosis than the general population.

About one in 200 people carries an error in both genes of a genotype, and has a 80 -fold higher thrombosis risk. Having defective genes does not necessary mean the patient will suffer from thrombosis, because only a fraction of those affected also develop the disease. Other factors also strongly contribute, such as obesity, bed rest and inactivity, prolonged air travel, contraceptive pill, pregnancy, etc. .

This is why this genetic testing is so important; Page 45 of 81

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM

Relevant genes for thrombosis Three genetic variations have been identified that can significantly increase the risk of thrombosis.

Through an analysis of these three polymorphisms, the risk of developing a thrombosis can be determined, and reduced with specific preventive measures. The following genes have an impact on your risk of thrombosis:

Summary of effects Certain genes are responsible for preventing blood clotting in the blood vessels. Variations in these genes may interfere with this process, and therefore increase the risk of the formation of a blood clot, and, subsequently, thrombosis. Here you can see a summary of the impact that genetic variations have on your health and your body: ➤ Your risk of developing venous thrombosis is not increased ➤ Your risk of developing arterial thrombosis is the same as for the general population.

Prevention Based on your genetic profile, you have no increased risk of thrombosis. Your risk is the same as for the general population, and no special precautions are necessary.

Even people with no genetic predisposition to thrombosis can still be affected by it. Therefore, the following preventative measures should be taken by everyone. Staying still for a long periods of time can lead to the formation of a clot. This can happen when a person is in bed for a long period because of sickness or after surgery Long intervals without moving, and even during prolonged sitting in a car or plane during long-distance traveil. These may lead to impaired blood flow that fosters the formation of a blood clot. To prevent this, take regular breaks during long trips, or walk in the plane to stretch your legs. Other risk factors for thrombosis include obesity and pregnancy, which both increase pressure in the veins. Smoking and an unhealthy diet are also risk factors for thrombosis.

METABOLISM

Detoxification In our daily lives, we are increasingly exposed to toxic pollutants that enter our bodies. Our bodies produce enzymes that recognize and neutralize many toxins. Certain genes are responsible for the production of these enzymes. Some traits in those genes limit your body's ability to effectively neutralize toxic substances. This significantly increases your risk for a variety of conditions caused by toxins.

Therefore, a complete analysis of health risks must include these detoxification genes. Genetic traits limiting detoxification are very common among the European population and the body's detoxification ability varies greatly from person to person. These genetic differences help to explain why a 90-year-old heavy smoker may be in great health while another individual develops cancer at the age of 35. Each person has an individual genetic profile and it follows that each person should employ individual preventative measures to maintain good health.

Since different genes are responsible for the detoxification of certain toxic substances, the toxic substances categories are listed individually and your gene analysis results are interpreted per category.

Page 53 of 81

METABOLISM

Phase 1 Detoxification from ashes and soot Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are common atmospheric pollutants produced mainly by burning fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas and oil. These pollutants enter the body via a myriad of paths: in food and drinking water, through the lungs when fumes or smoke are inhaled, and even directly through the skin. Once in our bodies, they can cause many different types of cancer, including lung cancer, laryngeal cancer, stomach cancer, intestinal cancer and bladder cancer.

There are a number of detoxification genes that regulate enzymes that bind and neutralize toxic substances in your body. Some genetic traits reduce your body's capacity to produce these enzymes, and exposure to toxic substances increases your individual risk of cancer many times over. It is therefore very important for persons with inefficient detoxification enzymes to learn about their elevated risk in order to minimize their exposure to toxic substances and remain healthy.

As long as they function efficiently, these genes ensure that these toxic substances effectively filtered out of your body.

However, these genes can carry traits that prevent your body from adequately detoxifying. These traits significantly increase the risk of many different types of cancer and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Oxidative stress and free radicals Free radicals are created in cells during energy conversion. Free radicals are small, aggressive substances that damage the molecules around them through a chain reaction. They must be neutralized swiftly by the body. An imbalance between the creation and neutralization of free radicals is known as oxidative stress, which is one of the factors that affects the aging of your body and skin.

Certain genes are responsible for the neutralization of free radicals. Unfortunately, many people have genetic traits that reduce their protection from free radicals. If your body does not have an innate ability to neutralize free radicals, you can consume higher levels of antioxidants – such as beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E and acetylcysteine – that will increase your body's ability to resist oxidative stress.

Coenzyme Q10 is a strong antioxidant that is capable of neutralizing free radicals, but only after being transformed into its active form, ubiquinol, by a certain gene. If this gene does not function, coenzyme Q10 cannot be transformed into ubiquinol and does nothing to protect against free radicals. It is therefore important to know if your body is capable of activating coenzyme Q10 to determine your need to take antioxidants.

Osteoporosis Osteoporosis is a disease that affects the bones. It causes bones to lose mass and strength, and makes them more fragile and easier to fracture. Even in normal development, bones become more likely fracture with age. Bones reach maximum strength at about the age of 30, and bone mass decreases moderately after that time. However, some genetic traits lead to reduced bone strength, which increases the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures, especially of the hips, forearms and vertebra. This risk grows with age. women, mainly because the body no longer produces the bone-protective hormone estrogen. The disease is very common: one in three women over the age of 50 is diagnosed with osteoporosis. As estrogen, the female sex hormone, plays a significant role for women in the formation of bone, women who have had lower estrogen levels throughout their life (e.g. due to a late start of menstruation or premature menopause) are particularly at risk.

Most fractures involve the hips, forearms and vertebrae. In normal development these bones grow throughout childhood and reach maximum strength at about age 30. After that time, bone mass gradually decreases, leading to somewhat more brittle bones. However, some traits in the genes that are responsible for bone formation can cause your bones to become unusually fragile over time. As you age, this leads to increased bone loss and fractures. About 80% of osteoporosis cases occur in post-menopausal

The osteoporosis is a common disease for men over the age of 70. Although women are more often affected by osteoporosis, this disease affects both sexes, and its development is accelerated by certain risk factors such as poor diet and unhealthy lifestyle. Not only calcium, but also numerous other micronutrients (such as minerals, amino acids, and vitamins) are important in maintaining healthy bones. Bones have the capability to store calcium, but these reserves are depleted in the case of nutritional deficiencies, for providing the calcium needed for other important processes in the body.

Vitamin D also plays an important role in the absorption of calcium from food.

In the case of the elderly, the conversion to the active form of vitamin D is poor; in addition, the vitamin D intake from food is too low. As such the vitamin D deficiency is a largely spread problem, but one that can be easily solved.

The incipient phases of the disease are sometimes not associated with any recognizable symptoms, and the diagnosis is made only when Page 67 of 81

the first bone fractures occur. Previous to this point, the bone density is, however, compromised, and the bones may be fractured even in the case of low injuries or low effort, and can occur, for example, when bending or lifting a heavy bag.

If the disease is diagnosed at a late stage, treatment is based on preventing falls and increasing bone density as much as possible.

This is achieved through a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, adequate exercise and by use of medication that promotes bone metabolism.

The best defense against osteoporosis is, and will remain, prevention. The earlier the disease is diagnosed, the more quickly you can take action to stop bone deterioration. Preventing bone loss is always easier than recovering lost bone. That is exactly what makes this gene test so valuable for preventative health care: you learn what your personal risk of disease is and can often completely prevent the disease from developing and following a prevention program tailored to your individual needs.

Genes associated with osteoporosis So far, scientists have identified 4 genes with traits linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis. An analysis of all 4 traits allows us to determine your genetic risk for osteoporosis as well as some other genetic traits linked to this disease.

Summary of effects Some genetic traits reduce your risk of osteoporosis, while others increase risk. Genetic traits that impair calcium uptake also affect bone mass. Here is a summary of the effects that the genetic variations have on your health and body: ➤ Your risk of osteoporosis is not elevated (OR = 1) ➤ Bisphosphate is especially effective for osteoporosis prevention ➤ You have a normal capacity for absorbing calcium Your risk for osteoporosis PROTECTION

Prevention Genetic analysis shows that you do not have an increased risk of osteoporosis and do not need to place a strong emphasis on taking preventive measures necessary other than the general rules of a healthy life style. However, you should avoid medications that are associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis.

Everyone loses some bone mass over time. So even though you do not have a genetic predisposition for osteoporosis, you should still take steps to minimize your bone loss. Eat a balanced diet, and make sure that you consume enough dairy products (if you are not lactose intolerant), which are a good source of calcium. Calcium is the raw material necessary for bone regeneration, and it is vital to make sure you are getting enough. ➤ Ensure an adequate uptake of vitamin D. The body produces this vitamin in the presence of sunlight, so you should spend as much time as possible outdoors. Vitamin D is also contained in food products such as fish, and in lower quantities in milk, as well as in some nutritional supplements (fish oils). Depending on your own requirements, you can also take vitamin D as medical treatment. ➤ Sport is, of course, recommended to everybody. Endurance and mild power oriented exercise is recommended to strengthen the bones and muscles.
