TruGenetics™ Process

TruGenetics™ Personalized Genetic Profile Service is uniquely designed to help you explore your genes, empower you to take control of your own health and enable you to participate in scientific research. The genetic results you receive from TruGenetics™ will be accompanied by lifestyle recommendations that can assist you in preventing or managing some of the genetic predispositions you may have for various traits or diseases.

The TruGenetics™ Personalized Genetic Profile Service will:

	•		Send you an analysis of your genetic predisposition for a variety of traits and health conditions.
	•		Provide you with a portal through which you will be able to manage your health information and learn about how to improve your health and lifestyle.
	•		Connect you with other people who have similar traits and diseases. This will allow you to build and join communities to exchange information with others like yourself.
	•		Send you updates based on new insights into genetic risk, including new condition predispositions, new genetic markers, and other wellness strategies.

TruGenetics™ genome scans are conducted by a leading government-certified laboratory that captures data for over 500,000 of your genetic markers.

Here's How It Works (4 Simple Steps)

1. Register
Registering is easy. Just click on the Register link on any page, and you will be directed to our registration page where you will be asked to provide us with needed information. In addition please note:

2. Complete Survey
The TruGenetics™ personalized risk assessment survey is designed to complement your genetic scan results, allowing TruGenetics™ to help you organize your complete personal health profile, which you will be able to access and update at any time. You will also be able to participate in scientific research by adding your health information to our secure anonymized database that will be used to make new scientific discoveries.

3. Provide DNA Sample
This is how TruGenetics™ will get your DNA for testing. The process is simple. You will receive a small package in the mail containing a small tube. You will fill the tube with your saliva; seal the tube; and mail it back to us within 24 hours in the postage paid envelope provided.

Its that easy.

4. Get Your Results

When TruGenetics™ receives your saliva sample, we will extract your DNA and scan it in our CLIA certified laboratory. We will determine your genotypes for a set of traits and diseases that have been found to have a genetic risk in the latest scientific studies. If you are not interested in all of these traits and diseases, you will have the option to not review some of these results.

These genetic information, along with the health information that you provide, will be combined to create a personalized health record that will be organized for you to review and manage. This will be available to you through our secure portal at any time using your secure password and log in. You will also be able to explore and interact with the data to gain a deeper understanding of your profile.
