Introducing Dr. Libert’s most comprehensive and insightful diagnostic pathway – the Re-Think Aging Pathway. This is the pinnacle of our offerings, designed for those dedicated to living their best life, focusing on maximizing healthspan, and proactively preventing cognitive decline. As the incidence of age-related cognitive impairments escalates, this pathway represents a significant source of hope and empowerment, offering new possibilities for managing and mitigating these challenges. We integrate the most advanced diagnostic tools and personalized strategies, aligning perfectly with the innovative approaches of precision medicine. This pathway is not just about adding years to your life, but life to your years, tailored to your unique genetic, environmental, and lifestyle mosaic.
The “Re-Think Aging” pathway includes an additional hour with Dr. Libert (3-hour initial consultation), all the testing in the healthy foundations and advanced functional medicine pathways, as well as the following additional genetic and epigenetic testing:
IntellxxDNA Genetic Testing: A Gateway to Personalized Health and Wellness
At Caring for the Body, PLLC – Center for Functional Medicine, we recognize that your DNA is the blueprint of your unique health journey. It comprises numerous variants, known as SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms), each playing a distinct role in your overall well-being. These genetic markers can unlock insights into both your potential health advantages and susceptibilities.
Brain Optimization Report – This crucial component of our service addresses the modifiable causes of memory loss. Beyond the well-known APOE e4 variant, a plethora of SNPs and genes contribute significantly to cognition and memory. The variants we highlight are involved in critical pathways like inflammation, amyloid clearance, hormonal balance, nutrition, and detoxification. With hundreds of referenced SNPs and potential interventions impacting cognition, this report provides an invaluable resource for implementing a protocol aimed at preventing and reversing cognitive impairment.
Medical Overview Report – This comprehensive and clinically relevant report covers over 250 SNPs, focusing on common medical issues that affect health and quality of life. Spanning 20 panels, it includes information on heart disease, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, anesthesia tolerance, thyroid issues, homocysteine/methylation, detoxification, histamine intolerance and food sensitivity, vitamin D and B12, among many other pathways.
Our in-depth reports delve into the intricate relationships between these SNPs. We explore how they influence your daily life and long-term health, offering a window into personalized healthcare opportunities. By analyzing this genetic tapestry, we identify specific areas where your genetic profile may impact your quality of life.
More than just a genetic analysis, our approach integrates a holistic view of health management. We provide a compendium of evidence-based intervention strategies. These encompass environmental modifications, lifestyle adjustments, nutritional guidance, supplemental support, and, when appropriate, medication considerations. This comprehensive strategy is tailored to align with your unique genetic makeup, empowering you to take proactive steps towards optimal health.
Each report is designed to be a foundational tool for informed discussions with Dr. Libert and your other physicians. It serves as a guide, helping you and your healthcare team to collaboratively develop a personalized health plan that resonates with your genetic profile, lifestyle, and health goals.
