Metabolism
Determines the level of risk of civilization diseases
Diabetes, obesity, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, Gilbert's syndrome, gout.
Metabolism, or metabolic processes, encompasses the complex of all reactions that ensure the functioning of our organism. We test not only metabolic disorders caused by mutations in a single gene but also predispositions to civilization metabolic diseases, including diabetes mellitus or diabetes, obesity, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, Gilbert's syndrome, and gout. These diseases arise from the interaction between genes and lifestyle. This is especially true for diabetes and obesity, the development of which can be prevented in more than 90% of cases by following targeted preventive recommendations.
