Stroke & Cerebrovascular Risk

Clotting, blood vessel and thrombosis genetics

Identifies hereditary thrombophilia and cerebrovascular variants that raise stroke risk in otherwise healthy, young people — including Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin, MTHFR and NOTCH3.

From Result to Action

Turn data into action

Every finding in your report comes with a concrete next step. Here's what your results can unlock.

APOE ε4 Protection Protocol

15-year advantage

Triggered by: One or two copies of APOE ε4 detected

−40%

Alzheimer's risk reduction achievable

Click to collapse

What this result reveals:

Your exact Alzheimer's risk multiplier (ε4 heterozygous = 3× risk; homozygous = 8–12× risk), the specific biological mechanisms at play for your genotype, and the evidence-graded interventions that meaningfully reduce that risk.

Implement Mediterranean-ketogenic diet — the most studied APOE4-specific dietary intervention

Prioritise aerobic HIIT: 4× per week, 30 minutes — the single most powerful BDNF and Aβ clearance stimulus

Start DHA 2g/day and lion's mane mushroom extract — both have specific APOE4 evidence

APOE ε4 carriers who implement a full neuroprotective lifestyle before 55 can reduce estimated Alzheimer's risk by up to 40% vs. untreated carriers.

Boost BDNF & Brain Plasticity

Triggered by: BDNF Val66Met — reduced secretion variant

Is This Test Right for You?

Who benefits most

Family history of dementia

A parent or grandparent had Alzheimer's. Knowing your APOE status gives you 15–20 years to build cognitive reserve before any symptom appears.

Persistent brain fog or memory lapses

Cognitive symptoms despite good sleep and nutrition. Your genetics reveal whether there's a biological predisposition that standard bloods will never flag.

Planning ahead in your 40s

No symptoms yet — and that's exactly the right time to act. Cognitive reserve is built 20–30 years before it's needed. This test shows you where to focus.
