Interleukin Genetics - Empowering health

Conclusion

Inflammation, a process essential for life, is also a critical component of a number of chronic diseases, including heart disease. Some people possess subtle differences in the genes for IL-1 which means they have a more active inflammatory response than people with a different genetic make-up. These IL-1 genetic risk patterns are also associated with an increased risk for heart disease.

The Inherent Health™ Heart Health test detects if you possess one of the IL-1 genetic risk patterns. Knowing this can help you manage your heart health and take the necessary steps to reduce your risk for heart disease.
