Everything about genetic testing - The Medical Futurist

- In this video I’d like to take you through the experience of genetic testing and show you what to expect, and how to use the information to improve your life. Direct-to-consumer genetic testing can help you tackle inherited diseases, it can teach you about what diet serves your body best, or it can warn you about how you’ll react to certain medications. It can be a gold mine of medical information that can help you live longer and healthier.
As a geneticist, and physician having done 7 genetic tests, I’m in a unique position to show you what these are all about. Let's find out how it all started, go beyond the hype around ancestry tests and explore the real potential of genetic health tests and whole genome sequencing. I will also share with you my experience with genetic counseling and finally we will dive into the future of DNA testing.

"Genetics load the gun but lifestyle pulls the trigger" 👍👍👍
Fascinating insights! Genetic testing's potential for health optimization is incredible. Grateful for the valuable perspective from a geneticist and physician. 👩⚕🧬
Love this video. I am of 100% Hungarian ancestry. From Canada
Look, I have totally fallen in love with your channel! I'm a medical student in Nigeria and you have opened my eyes to so many things I only imagine here! Thank you.
Many thanks for that!
Thank you for the informative video, my Dr wants me to get one and I've been so anxious. This helped ease my mind a little. I live the idea of it I just wasn't sure I was ready.... still going to do more research but you have given me some excellent insight.
Thank you for making things easy to understand.... As a Medical geneticist this was cherry on the cake...
Thank you for the kind words!
Yes I agree I’m being pushed for medical genetics testing using 23andme but I much rather use myDNA, dante Labs or illumina to start making genetics testing for medical purposes plus using illuminate instead of non medical DNA testing kits for medical purposes. Great episode. I love it
I agree, I have a rare genetic condition and I’d rather that my results go towards furthering research than making companies rich.
We are doing genetic testing for kid to help parent understand their kid behaviour, nutrition needs and forecast talent
I can’t find the follow up video?
Do you have an updated video ???
i have celiac disease. what are the chances that my child would also have this autoimmune disease
Would have liked to hear what the genetic counselling cost as it appeared essential to also pay for in addition to the test costs.
Sure, here is the site I used: www.dnafeed.com/
Koszi az information. A whole genome sequencing admire en is gondoltam es most probalom eldonteni hogy melyik jobb itt amerikaban a Nebula vagy Sequencing? Vagy esetleg a CRI genetics? Tudnal esetleg egy osszehasonlitast csinalni ezekrol a cegekrol? Sok skiert es megegyszer koszonet a sok jo informacioert!!
Hello, where can I find the result of Atlasbiomed test? Are they recommended test?
May I get practical knowledge regarding DNA profiling
What is the difference in blood tests and saliva test for finding relatives? How accurate are saliva tests?
Can DNA be programmed or edited?
Hey awesome video, what type of testing should I get if I want to know what genetic advantages I have (for different sports etc) so I can understand what type of diet and training I should use?
I provided some tips here: medicalfuturist.com/which-direct-to-consumer-genetic-test-to-choose/
@@Medicalfuturist thanks for your fast reply 🙏
@@Medicalfuturist thanks for your fast reply 🙏
What’s the best overall genetic test? I don’t care about heritage or breast cancer just really looking for things I am deficient in, or susceptible to later in life.
There is no best but there are choices for each purpose medicalfuturist.com/which-direct-to-consumer-genetic-test-to-choose/
I am thinking of taking a diet and exercise DNA test. What do you think about these? And dies it make a difference for these kinds of test whether I do the "normal" test or the sequence genome test?
I wrote about these issues here: medicalfuturist.com/which-direct-to-consumer-genetic-test-to-choose/
@@Medicalfuturist Thank you. Reading your article I've quickly concluded that genome sequence testing would be better. I've seen there are also epigenetic tests out there. Is this (more) advisable?
This is really random and off topic but I was 3 when you made your account 😳
Can one send his/her sample (say saliva) to the DND testing company anonymously (i.e. without mentioning any personal data), so that the data reliability provided by the company might be increased a little bit ?
I think it's possible but they would still own the data from which any person is identifiable.
How are specific genes selected
It always depends on the geneticist team of the given company.
Are they using the PCR test to do this?
It very much depends on the particular genetic test and the company behind it.
@@Medicalfuturist can a PCR test determine if someone is RH negative?
@@SunShineU-dl9or RH negative blood is done by a very simple reagent test in almost every hospital in the country. It’s a very basic test that doesn’t not require a machine.
@@marcydufrene3593 I was looking for a simple answer “yes” or “no”.?
@@SunShineU-dl9or It’s not black and white. Technically you could find out through PCR, but that would be a waste of time and money. Most places have reagents that can tell you in ten mins if a person is RH negative. So short answer is yes and no.
The content was very awesome! I've been trying to look for a video like yours that teaches the stuff in this video! 👩⚕️ 👨⚕️Your video is like the vids from Dr Ethan! Doctor's explanations are helpful and he actually helped me a lot on my practice! He is an insightful medical student in Nottingham and he explains diseases and diseases.
Go see his CZcams out and give the med student a subscribe! ➡️ #FutureDoctorEthan

Genetic counselling is only worth it if you have been tested for genetic disorders as the outcome can have quite an impact.
