Why do you want to do genetic testing?

Abstract: If many diseases can be found in advance, the cure rate can be greatly improved, and so can cancer. Genetic testing is to help you find mines buried in your body in advance, thus avoiding the risk of illness. Maybe this can help you know what hidden dangers you and your loved ones have and what you need to pay attention to in order to avoid unnecessary tragedies. The benefits of genetic testing include: predictive medicine, disease prevention, health management and personalized service. What is the significance of genetic testing? All diseases are related to genes. Gene is a functional fragment carrying genetic information on DNA molecules, and it is the substance that organisms transmit genetic information. Genes dominate life and are the foundation of life.

Predictive medicine can accurately predict the disease risk in healthy and sub-healthy periods.

Disease prevention = internal cause+external cause. Through the understanding of internal causes, the influence of external causes can be effectively avoided, thus reducing the risk of illness.

Health management through genetic testing, know that you have certain disease susceptibility genes, you can take the initiative to improve the environment and living habits, and do your own health management.

Personalized medical service through genetic testing reminds us which drugs should be used carefully, which not only greatly reduces unnecessary medical expenses, improves curative effect, but also avoids causing greater harm to human body.

What are the benefits of genetic testing in predicting future risks? Early prevention If we can find the defective genes early and fundamentally predict the risk of future health problems, we can prevent major diseases such as cancer and avoid the conditions that may "detonate" defective genes, so that we can effectively prevent diseases before they occur, so that the risk of cancer in genetically susceptible subtypes is greatly reduced, and even the occurrence of tumors can be avoided through intervention.

Reducing health investment, reducing unnecessary physical examination items and frequency, and doing targeted physical examination are helpful for early detection, prevention and treatment.

There is no need to be confused in the face of the overwhelming advertisements for health care products in society. According to their own characteristics, choose targeted nutrition and health care products, so as to make up more without making up less.

Through genetic testing, you can get a health manual (that is, a health report of genetic testing).

By increasing health knowledge, we can understand the causes of diseases according to our own susceptibility genes and master the environmental factors that induce susceptibility genes, so that diseases that should have occurred do not occur or occur later.

You can judge whether your current lifestyle is scientific or not and whether you need to change your living habits forcibly.

Personalized medication can judge which drugs are safe for you, which drugs are effective for you, and which drugs are ineffective or even fatal according to your own genetic situation, thus improving the safety and effectiveness of medication. So as to change the common embarrassment of "testing drugs with people" in clinical medicine and avoid unnecessary waste.

Reducing medical costs and improving the quality of the population can help us understand the genetic history of the family, correctly analyze and evaluate the risks of family members, especially close relatives and the next generation, do a good job in prenatal screening and effectively intervene in prenatal care.

Improve the quality of life and have a healthy life. Members living in high-risk families are very worried about whether they will get sick in the future and whether their children will get sick. A negative test result will reduce the pressure of these members, bring a very high quality of life, and avoid many unnecessary regular inspections; Positive results are also beneficial, which can make active subjects take preventive measures as soon as possible and make positive arrangements for future work.
