Genetic Tests And Their Benefits

Welcome to Precision Medicine: The Future of Personalized Health and Wellness

At the forefront of the genetic health testing industry, HUMUN Genetyx proudly leads with groundbreaking precision medicine offerings. Our suite of innovative at-home genetic health tests, including GenPGx, GenTrim, GenAthlete, GenAge, GenCBD, and GenNutrient, are designed to revolutionize your approach to health and wellness.

 

GenPGx

— Discover how medication metabolizes in your body thereby allowing your provider to prescribe what works.

— Gives your provider the information needed for proper medication dosing.

— Discover and avoid your risk for adverse drug reaction(s) from either a single medication or the combination of medications.

 

Understanding how medication metabolizes in your body is beneficial both for your health and for your healthcare provider's decision-making:

For Your Body: Knowing this ensures that medications prescribed are effective and suited to your unique physiological makeup. It reduces the risk of ineffective treatment and potential side effects.

For Your Provider: This information allows healthcare providers to prescribe medication at appropriate dosages, tailored specifically to how your body processes drugs. It also aids in avoiding adverse drug reactions, enhancing the safety and effectiveness of your treatment.

Pharmacogenomics (PGx) plays a crucial role in this process. It's the study of how an individual's DNA affects their response to medications. This understanding is vital because adverse drug events are a major concern in healthcare, leading to hospitalizations and other complications. PGx Testing, offered directly to consumers, can be a key tool in preventing such issues, including unnecessary hospitalizations and prescription inefficiencies.


GenTrim

— Discover how you utilize fat, protein and carbohydrates, gluten sensitivity, lactose intolerance, bitterness and sweet preferences and more.

— Discover how you absorb key macronutrients including vitamins A, B6, Folate, B12, C and D.

— Discover how well you lose fat in response to cardio, body composition, insulin sensitivity to cardio, glucose response to cardio and more.

— Discover the genes that contribute to your metabolism rate, weight loss tendency, weight regain and satiety, and more.

 

Knowing how your body utilizes nutrients and responds to physical activity can significantly benefit both you and your healthcare provider:

For Your Body: Understanding your body's unique way of processing fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, along with specific dietary tolerances like gluten sensitivity or lactose intolerance, can guide you towards a more effective and personalized diet plan. Knowledge of how you absorb key macronutrients and respond to cardio aids in optimizing your fitness regimen.

For Your Provider: This information allows healthcare providers to make more informed recommendations regarding diet and exercise, tailored to your genetic makeup. It aids in creating a more effective and individualized health management program.

The GenTrim program leverages this concept, emphasizing that considering one's DNA in health management can lead to more successful weight management, moving beyond the limitations of standard diets.
