Get a Grasp on the Simple Process of Genetic Testing

Genetic testing has become an important tool that helps elucidate interventions that compliment your plan of care. Although it is not a “fix all” for your problems, we have found that it is quite helpful and important. While utilizing tools like PureGenomics® and 23andMe®, you’ll be able to work with your care provider to determine what supplements are best for you. The good news, once you complete the genetics test once you will not have to do it again as your genome does not change.
