Although human DNA contains millions of SNPs, GeneLink scientist used the following criteria to choose the SNPs for the Genetic Nutrition LifeMap Healthy Aging ™ DNA assessment: (1) Valid – The existence of the SNP is supported by solid, credible scientific evidence. Gene SNPs are added as knowledge progresses. (2) Important – A SNP predicts biochemical processes that associate with significant, specific physiologic disadvantages. (3) Frequent – The SNP frequency is relatively common among the general population. (4) Actionable – A SNP’s negative potential can be modulated by nutritional formulations (for example).
