This test is recommended for individuals who:
- Have a family history of obesity or related metabolic disorders.
- Are experiencing unexplained weight gain or difficulty in losing weight.
- Wish to understand their genetic risks to make informed lifestyle choices.
- Are seeking personalized dietary or fitness plans based on genetic insights.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Provides insight into your genetic risk for obesity.
- Helps in developing personalized health and nutrition plans.
- Encourages proactive health management and lifestyle changes.
- Facilitates informed discussions with healthcare providers regarding weight management strategies.
Understanding Your Results
After the test, results will be provided within 3 to 4 weeks. It is essential to consult with a genetic counselor or a qualified healthcare professional to interpret the results accurately.
