Epigenetic & Stress Testing

Clinique Lémana introduces a combined Epigenetic and Stress testing in its general health assessment. By integrating this technological innovation into its 5-day program, environmental factors influencing lifestyle and well-being are taken into consideration.

Based on the science of epigenetics, this is an innovative analysis that makes it possible to implement personalized preventive actions, adapted to the sensitivity of each individual, and thus to reduce premature aging through a healthier lifestyle for healthy longevity.

How is epigenetic testing performed?

It consists of a blood test to measure the biological age of the human body with an epigenetic assessment of lifestyle based on DNA: consumption of tobacco, alcohol, fruit and vegetables and physical activity.

The epigenetic profile reveals youth capital, which is essentially the difference between chronological age and biological age.

What is the allostatic load (or stress overload) test?

The epigenetic signature of stress overload is based on the following biomarkers: immune, cardiovascular, metabolic, and neuroendocrine.

Based on a blood sample, it is a measure of the “wear and tear” on the body — or the physiological dysregulation— that accumulates as we age, and which is influenced by our individual experiences, behaviors, and environment.

Stress overload, as the cumulative damage due to stress, can progressively drive the body’s internal systems to their limits and precipitate various health issues.

In a nutshell, research shows that our lifestyle and the daily choices we make can influence the epigenetic signatures of our DNA.
