The weight loss goods and services industry grew to an astounding $90 billion in the US last year. Some, but not all, of that growth was fueled by popular prescription weight loss medications. People want to be healthier, lose weight, and reach their optimal wellness, but finding the right answers to achieving those goals isn’t always easy.
Weight loss is individual. What works for your friend or neighbor may not work for you. This is why a tailored weight loss plan based on your body’s specific genes and how they function has been perfected by 10X Health.
Genetic Testing for Weight Loss
Genetic testing can be used in various ways to uncover exactly how your body functions based on your genes, and it is a great first step for those looking for a customized weight loss plan. Your genes give the cells in your body instructions on how they should act, for example, exactly how your body should digest lactose in your intestines. There are approximately 23,000 genes that control your body and your health.
However, not all genes do what they are supposed to do. In fact, every person has about 2,000 genetic defects that can negatively affect their health. Genetic testing can find these defects and identify exactly which genes are not functioning the way they should.
How Genes Provide the Key to Weight Loss
There are a lot of ways that genes influence weight. The genes in your body determine how full you feel as you eat, your appetite level, and how your body uses energy to burn calories (metabolism). Genetics can make it harder for some people to lose weight than others and also make certain weight loss plans ineffective.
Weight Loss & 10X Health’s Precision Genetic Test
10X Health has developed a Precision Genetic Test that studies over 50 major genes in the body and how they affect the way your body functions. Understanding which genes are not doing their job and which genes are working correctly can be a game-changer when it comes to weight loss.
10X Health’s Precision Genetic Test uncovers exactly how your body operates by analyzing your genes. Understanding which nutrients your body uses best, where any genetic defects are, and how your body processes certain macronutrients like protein, carbohydrates, and fats can help in developing a customized weight loss plan that will work for you.
The Precision Genetic Test also allows 10X Health to build a supplemental multivitamin to ensure you are taking the nutrients your body needs in the correct doses you need to maintain optimal blood nutrient levels throughout the day. This multivitamin is completely tailored to your individual genetic composition (unlike generic multivitamins you may find on the market), making it an ideal support feature for personal weight loss goals or weight maintenance.
10X Health offers another way to get your personalized multivitamin — through IV therapy. Once you’ve received your multivitamin, you will be provided with a QR code that you can bring to any 10X Health or Reviv IV therapy location and receive your customized vitamin treatment via IV therapy.
In addition to your personal multivitamin, 10X Health can also craft a Precision Weight Management supplement. This is a tailored pre-meal supplement that acts as a carbohydrate and fat blocker. It is designed to enhance the absorption of essential nutrients and block the absorption of those that are associated with weight gain.
Personalized vs. One-Size-Fits-All Nutrition
Understanding how your genes work together to function optimally will lead to greater success than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to weight loss. There are many supplements and multivitamins available on the market, but if you don’t know how your body (and your genes) processes them, then choosing which ones to take may mean you’re taking a gamble with the results.
A personalized approach leaves no room for mystery. You won’t wonder “if” the supplements will work because they will. The 10X Precision Genetic Test provides information on what supplements and vitamins are personally best for you based on your DNA.
