Can SelfDecode diagnose me?
No — SelfDecode does not provide medical diagnoses. Our platform is designed to empower you with information about how your genes may influence your health, not to replace a healthcare professional.
SelfDecode helps you:
- Learn which genetic variants you carry that are associated with certain conditions or traits
- Understand your potential health risks based on scientific research
- Get personalized recommendations to help reduce risks and support overall well-being
Why Genetics Alone Isn’t Enough
Genes are just one part of the picture. Other factors — including lifestyle, environment, and overall health — play a major role in whether a condition actually develops. Many people carry high-risk variants and never develop the associated conditions.
How to Use SelfDecode Safely
Think of your genetic results as a guide, not a verdict. By understanding your genetic predispositions, you can make informed decisions about:
- Diet
- Exercise and lifestyle habits
- Supplement choices
This knowledge gives you the power to take proactive steps toward your health, rather than feeling limited by your genes.
Key Takeaway
SelfDecode provides insights, not diagnoses. Use this information to empower your health decisions, and always consult a qualified healthcare professional for medical concerns or decisions.
