This package focuses on preventing and managing heart disease, strokes and/or diabetes.
There are nine lifestyle factors that contribute to almost 90% of first heart attacks or strokes:

• High blood sugar
• High blood pressure
• High blood fats (cholesterol)
• Smoking
• Obesity
• Inactivity
• Consuming too little fruit and vegetables
• Excessive alcohol intake
• Stress

If you are concerned about your risk of developing heart disease, this programme is for you.

Test type
The multi-gene cardiovascular disease (CVD) test covers 11 functional mutations in dealing with risk areas in cardiovascular disease, including:

• Fat metabolism, associated with high cholesterol
• Homocysteine and folate metabolism
• Blood clotting, associated with traveller's thrombosis and recurrent miscarriage
• Iron overload, associated with chronic fatigue, arthritis, diabetes, infertility and liver disease

This test distinguishes between high-risk individuals who require long-term medical treatment and people who are susceptible to less severe gene-environment interactions.
