Myths vs facts: NutriCare | INFINITY DNA-Test and Langlebigkeit

Myths vs. facts: NutriCare and INFINITY DNA test for longevity. Myth: These tests can predict your lifespan or provide a personalized anti-aging plan. Fact: The tests analyze genetic variants with mostly small effect sizes (e.g., nutrient metabolism, inflammatory pathways). Longevity is predominantly determined by lifestyle, environment, and chance. DNA results offer lifestyle inspiration, not medical prediction. The INFINITY test combines multiple modules (metabolism, microbiome, hormones), but evidence for directly extending lifespan is lacking. These tests are lifestyle screening tools, not diagnostics. Beware of exaggerated claims: No genetic test can currently quantify individual longevity reliably. Clinical validation is weak; most statements rely on association studies or marketing. A physician or dietitian should be involved in health decisions.
