THE ANALYSIS OF THE GENE MTHFR AND THE FOLIC ACID METABOLIC PATHWAY

FOR PREVENTION OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES

THE ANALYSIS OF THE GENE "MTHFR" highlighted a fault, which covers 20% of Italians, linked to higher blood levels of homocysteine, a substance implicated in cardiovascular disease. To restore the normal situation, just increase the cofactor FOLIC ACID obtained from green leafy vegetables root and beans.

FOLATES AND HOMOCYSTEINE METABOLISM FOLIC ACID is introduced into our body through food and the bacterial flora’s reactions. This substance is essential for preventing neo-natal malformation and cardiovascular diseases. The amount of folic acid depends on the functioning of certain genes. The genetic test provides information about possible disorders in the process; this makes it easier to compensate and keep up the correct intake of this important nutritional.

GENODIET GENETIC TEST analyzes the genes concerned with our body’s metabolic pathways and helps to get the best out of our diet. Therefore It is possible to discover how to change our diet and our lifestyle in order to compensate possible genetically determined problems.

This is the only way to improve our body well-being and to enjoy good health for a longer time.

IN THE FUTURE, EVERYONE WILL HAVE HIS "GENETIC IDENTITY CARD".

The ideal diet-fits-all has been denied by genetics.

Although we are identical at 99.9%, the 0.1% difference is composed by the phenotype, that is the aesthetics, but also by the metabolic characteristics and reactions to various foods.
