Telomere Testing

What are Telomeres?

Telomeres are sections of genetic material at the end of each chromosome whose primary function is to prevent chromosomal fraying when a cell replicates. As cell ages, the telomeres become shorter. Eventually, when the telomeres become too short to allow cell replication, the cell stops dividing and ultimately dies. This is a normal biological process. Telomeres function to stabilize the chromosome, facilitate replication, and help regulate gene expression. All of these functions affect the effective age of the cell. Telomere testing helps to establish your cells’ biological age as it relates to the average cellular age of the general population. This testing can select certain therapies, such as telomeres supplements aimed at slowing the onset of signs of aging and age-related conditions. These supplements are prescribed and tailored to your needs at CRMC Wellness. Benefits of Testing your telomeres include reduced inflammation, stress reduction, improved sleep, improved performance, increased energy, and improved cognitive health.
