    Do you want to know the future, how long you're going to live? How, and even when you'll die? For many of us, that's a pretty scary thought. But it can be done. There's a simple, do-it-yourself DNA test that can tell if you're likely to suffer from cancer, heart attack or even Alzheimer's disease - a glimpse of the killer within, knowledge that could help save your life. And now, more and more Australians are taking the test to ease the uncertainty, to get a hint of what's in store.

    These genetic predispositions are often just worst case scenarios if you don't take care of yourself. My 94 year old aunt did a DNA test. We figured she had the golden genome because she looks awesome (barely any wrinkles) and is doing so well. Nope. She has a terrible genome. She's predisposed to pretty much everything and should've died fairly early in life. However, she lived a very healthy life.

    I had a DNA test done about 6 months ago to see what would help with my inflammation response because of my lupus. It went so in depth that it took me about 6 hours to get through the information. It drilled down so specifically and gave recommendations as to both lifestyle changes and supplements that would help (btw they have). Learned so much from that test. It made everything make sense. When my husband saw how much information I got from mine he had his done. His biggest concern was dementia as his mother passed from it. He did not carry the gene (thank goodness). It is absolutely worth the money. Wish we would have done it earlier.
    Even if you get the testing done and it says you don't have the breast cancer gene, still continue to get your nanograms. My daughter passed away from triple negative breast cancer, when doing her DNA testing to see if she was a candidate for gene therapy she was told it was a type of cancer that isn't genetic.

      Or, would knowing open a pandora's box of stress and hypochondria\paranoia that leads to more disease? Epigenetics says you can turn parts of your DNA blueprint on and off depending on the proteins and enzymes that surround the cells... Environmentally including built architecture and the oxidative properties and materials with their other 'quirks' that are still being discovered, it is impossible to determine the outcome. Taking a test like this, if available prior to the asbestos situation (as one example out of tens of thousands) would have been futile, alongside the myriad of newer contentious materials and chemicals being developed and that have been developed since asbestos that are yet to reveal their multi-generational cause and effects.
      Also, miracles DO happen. Plenty of people can attest to this with personal experience, including myself.

Its a movie about a future where at birth, doctors can diagnose how you will die, if you will be fat, bald, short, strong, weak, allergic, you name it. Any faults you may have are told to your parents right on the spot and watch how quick the parents in that film lose interest in their first born son who is said will die young of heart disease so they genetically opt to have another child who is "manufactured" during gestation to be "perfect". Its a movie worth watching about not letting the odds dictate you life and dreams of the future you want.

Same with localized numbing for minor surgeries. They even ask a bit incredulous "No, really, you can feel this?" and yes I can. So, there is something going on and IF they can find that kind of mutation you're right it could save lives if a person has some strange processing that could be a life-altering thing too.

    My Dad had a heart attack at just 34. He had just got home from a 6 week rugby tour in Canada and was the fittest person I knew. Luckily he was in a 'private' hospital having shoulder surgery at the time. He spent 3 months in hospital. Unfortunately the hospital was in London, 7 hours drive from where we live in Wales (uk).
    My fear was it would happen to me! I'm 45 now, but during my 30's having given birth to my youngest children was I feared that I wouldn't be around to see them grow up.
    But now I would like to know if my children and grandchildren have inherited my conditions.
    I lost my sight in my left eye from glaucoma at 36.

    The main issue here is epigenetics. Certain genes will get turned on or off depending upon environmental conditions, stressors, and exposures. So you cannot say that having a gene for something means you will necessarily get the condition for many issues, and you also cannot say that not having a gene will stop it from happening if environmental factors then subsequently alter things. Parents genes in their eggs and sperm will actually alter depending upon their life experiences and trauma experienced. Same goes with a fetuses genes being altered depending upon what stressors or good things mom is experiencing during pregnancy. Look into the studies on epigenetics and trauma and studies done on mice with epigenetics.

    I like the idea of this test, because you can tell your doctor what to screen for that isn't standard. The worry is that if you don't have national medical coverage, you could be denied health insurance because of "pre-existing conditions." I'm so grateful I live in a country where I don't have to worry about that, and that doctors appreciate having as much extra info as they can get. I can't wait until they offer these tests as part of a standard diagnostic, because right now you still need to pay quite a bit for them, and not everyone can afford it. When gene therapy becomes more mainstream and affordable, it's really going to revolutionize the world.

Lung cancer took out my grandfather at age 67. If I'd been a sedentary obese smoker all these years, I likely wouldn't be here. Turns out I never smoked a single cigarette and have always been physically active with a 22 BMI. If I'd gotten my genome info as a young man, I'd have known in advance to stay active and to never ever smoke. Learn good things too - for example, I'd have known I get to keep my hair for life, etc..

    If it soothes you to know when you’re going to die? Go for it. I’m already sick with Lung disease… I don’t need a glimpse I live it every day.
    But here’s my question- why would you do this to yourself? It doesn’t matter how you go- we all go. So why would you set yourself up like this? Knowledge IS power! It is! But take it from someone who not only is actively dying, but also knows what it feels like to face this…. Don’t do this to yourself. We all have to die. Enjoy whatever you can for as long as you can. Life is a gift and growing old is privilege denied to a lot of us.

      Maybe good to know if it’s something you can do to prevent it from happening. If I’m more disposed to getting something I’d change my diet and lifestyle in general to make the chances of it happening less.

      I agree. My dad has heart disease, and after his diagnosis, he tried convincing me its genetic and I'm probably going to have heart disease and be miserable like him. I wasn't mad to hear that, but I was disappointed that my dad was so hell bent on convincing me I was genetically flawed and was going to die young. Has it influenced my decisions in life? Maybe. Has it changed the fact that I live with tons of overbearing stress and poor lifestyle choices such as smoking that I picked up at 11 because my parents made it normal and available in their home? My dad's heart attacks were "stress related". I attribute his poor health to his poor choices in life, just as I would say the same for myself if I should realize the same fate. It doesn't matter what your DNA says anyway. I doubt it can predict when that bus is going to hit you.

      @@KaiserSoze357 because in 2017 I caught the h3N2 flu, developed pneumonia, and ended up septic. It damaged my lungs to the point where I only have the lower love on each side and 1 liter of capacity. I have huge “bowls” in my lungs where I had abscesses… now I have bullous disease. Sever copd. End stage is stage E, I’m in stage D.

    The thing about knowing is you can then start to minimize your risk if possible but I also understand not wanting to know. Ultimately God will decide how and when our ticket gets punched.
