Test Your DNA to Optimize Your Physical Health & Well-being
Actionable genetic data enabling smarter lifestyle choices
|
Medical breakthroughs in the field of genomics have furthered our understanding of human potential and have created a whole new field of enlightened customized healthcare and wellness.
Your path to health is unique and individual DNA results provide a significant advantage in creating unique health, nutrition, fitness and medication plans that support the unique goals of each individual, moving away from 'generalized' advice to enhanced decision making. Your DNA can't change, but your expression and environment can change - how much you exercise, your sleep habits, what you eat and more, playing a significant role in whether certain genes are activated to turn 'on' or 'off'. |

INTERESTED? Once you have your personal, actionable genetic profile(s) in hand, we can put them to work for you! You will work privately with your coach to review, understand and create an action plan based on the results. Possessing the knowledge of your genetic information can empower you to make informed decisions about your body and lifestyle. Coaching can provide additional education and accountability that will help you implement the positive habits needed to achieve your goals and optimal level of health and wellbeing. A simple cheek swab is all that is needed for testing. However, if you already have a 23andMe report**, you have the option to share your raw data. Contact us for more details.

FAQ's
How accurate and reliable are the results? The reports have been validated to be 99.9% accurate. To veracity, AGS runs an individuals specimen twice. The results are compared and conclusions are drawn. ** If you decide to download your genetic data from 23andMe, take caution that your raw data has undergone a general quality review, however only select data (specific to your 23anMe reports) have been validated for accuracy. If you upload your raw data for additional reports by AGS, your raw data from 23andMe is not validated for accuracy and the interpretation, reports or other claims of the AGS reports may not be accurate. Therefore, it is best to conduct a cheek swab for AGS to run your specimen twice for validated accuracy, interpretation and reports.
How is the AGS Health & Wellness test different from ancestral genetic testing? The AGS Health & Wellness test focuses on those genes which are most relevant to your diet, nutrition and exercise performance. Ancestral testing companies provide information on the genealogy of where the tested person is from in the world. The test does not tell you about your ancestry but rather crucial information about yourself that can help you live a healthier life style and reach optimal health goals.
What is the Science behind the test? All DNA is constructed of either adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T) for the base pairs just in different sequences. These sequences are what make up a persons genetic information. In 2003 the Human Genome Project was able to sequence and map the entire human genome. This blueprint laid out the foundation needed for AGS to then determine the genes in direct relation to optimal health and athletic performance. All genes selected for inclusion in each report are highly studied and validated with clinical relevance by our scientific review board.
Does this test copy what other companies test? The AGS Health & Wellness Genetic test is like no other genetic test on the market today. IIt evaluates far more genes than the other companies, all of which are directly related to overall heath, diet and fitness.
Why does this test cost more than other DNA tets on the market? The AGS Health & Wellness Test covers 60 of your genomes that are prudent to your overall health. The other DNA tests only cover 30 genomes which aren't always of importance to your health.
Saliva, blood or cheek swabs...what's the difference? There is no difference in the genetic information obtained from these 3 different collection methods. There are many reasons why a cheek swab is the preferred method. To name a few:

Saliva, blood or cheek swabs...what's the difference? There is no difference in the genetic information obtained from these 3 different collection methods. There are many reasons why a cheek swab is the preferred method. To name a few:
- Cheek swabs are effective, yet inexpensive. Buccal swabs aren’t like regular cotton swabs: they’re specially-designed to effectively collect and trap cheek cells within the fibers. Since two swabs per participant are included in the kit, the lab gets all the DNA it needs to perform the testing.
- It is a non-invasive method of collection: absolutely no needles or pain
- Unlike collecting saliva, it is easy to collect good DNA samples from the littlest child-even a newborn!
- Swabs do not require refrigeration. In fact, after samples are collected, they are good for up to six months as long as the swabs are kept in a cool, dry place.
- It is easier and faster for a lab to extract DNA from a cheek swab than from blood.

AGS takes privacy very seriously and adheres to strict confidentiality and data security policies to ensure your genetic information is kept safe and private. Unlike other genetic testing companies, AGS does not sell, share or disclose any personal data to any third parties and will not use your genetic data for research or other purposes.
Confidentiality is a critical part of the AGS code of ethics. Traditional genetic testing companies and related business are self-regulated and can selll genetic data at will. This allows them to market and sell genetic testing kits at a significant savings to you because they will make more money selling your genetic data to multiple third parties. With other genetic testing companies, you become their product. Not with AGS. |
