My journey to genetic testing began when I experienced unusual symptoms that worried me. I had always felt healthy.
I visited my doctor, who recommended a series of tests, but the results were inconclusive. I knew then that I needed more information about my health.
As Told by the client
I decided to invest in my health and have a comprehensive genetic test after remembering a friend who had recently had genetic testing and was impressed with the detail and accuracy of the results.
The process was surprisingly simple: I made an appointment, had blood drawn a few days later, then met with the genetic doctor for a result demonstration about a month later. He explained everything in detail.
The results were detailed and included not only information about my genetic predisposition to certain diseases, but also recommendations for my lifestyle and diet. I discovered that I had an increased risk for several health conditions that had been hidden until then.It was like opening a new chapter in my life. I finally had concrete data to rely on and began working with my doctor on preventative measures.
I also learned about my genetic strengths, which motivated me to adjust my exercise regimen and nutrition to make the most of my genetic potential.
Most significantly, the test results gave me the confidence and peace of mind to live life to the fullest. I had been living under the stress of an unclear health status, but now I had clarity. This certainty helped me to focus on what was really important in life.
I shared my experience with family and friends, and many of them were inspired to undergo genetic testing too. It has been amazing to see how my decision has had a positive impact not only on my life, but on the lives of others.
Today, with a greater understanding of my body and health, I feel stronger and more confident than ever before.Genetic testing was not just a medical test; it was a journey to a deeper understanding of myself.

“I’d been thinking about getting genetic testing for a while, but it was a tough decision. On the one hand, there was the worry about what the result might be, and on the other hand, there had been a lot of serious illnesses in our family recently.”
The story of Marianna
“I can say with certainty that I have never paid any attention to the issue of early prevention, genetic testing and regular check-ups. I even ignored some check-ups because I am a young, healthy woman, an athlete, and the last time I saw a doctor was two years ago.”
