Evaluate Your Risk of Heart Disease
Your genes are linked to a wide range of cardiovascular diseases. In fact, one of the most important risk factors for conditions such as coronary heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, and atrial fibrillation is your genetic makeup.
A DNA test can detect the mutations that are commonly associated with these conditions and alert you to them before any problems arise. From there, you can create a heart-healthy diet and exercise routine to ensure that genetic risk does not become a disease. You can also collaborate with your doctor to keep track of your cardiac health over time.
