CyGene Laboratories, Inc., a South Florida Genetics Company, Creates DNA Testing for the Masses, to Determine What Form of Exercise Works Best for ``You''.


MIAMI Miami, cities, United States
Miami (mīăm`ē, –ə).

1 City (1990 pop. 358,548), seat of Dade co., SE Fla., on Biscayne Bay at the mouth of the Miami River; inc. 1896.
 -- Imagine a world where one small analysis can establish how to look and perform your best. A futuristic test that can help determine which form of exercise will make you look you're slimmest and perform your best at sports. A revolutionary assessment of how to lose weight through exercise, and keep it off -- making your inexhaustible 'battle of the bulge' end permanently. Fortunately, new scientific advances have transformed conventional ways of assessing fitness, allowing for better faster results through diet and exercise.

:CYGE) a company based in Coral Springs, Florida Coral Springs, officially chartered July 10, 1963, is a city in Broward County, Florida, United States, approximately 20 miles (32 km) northwest of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. According to the U.S. , has developed a remarkable new DNA test DNA test nDNS-Test m  called the "Optimum Athletic Performance DNA Analysis DNA analysis Any technique used to analyze genes and DNA. See Chromosome walking, DNA fingerprinting, Footprinting, In situ hybridization, Jeffries' probe, Jumping libraries, PCR, RFLP analysis, Southern blot hybridization. ," which is designed to determine what form of training, based on an individual's DNA DNA: see nucleic acid.

One of two types of nucleic acid (the other is RNA); a complex organic compound found in all living cells and many viruses. It is the chemical substance of genes.
 predisposes them to a better results-oriented work-out.

Recent scientific evidence suggests that a number of genes play a role in athletic performance, and that muscle growth, cardiac output cardiac output

The volume of blood pumped from the right or left ventricle in one minute. It is equal to the stroke volume multiplied by the heart rate.
 and other factors influence the physical performance associated with these different genes carried by all individuals.

This amazingly insightful analysis concludes whether endurance or speed athletics are individually a better form of exercise, and in turn, help the exerciser focus on how to maximize their work-out for the best possible outcome. In addition, this analysis can determine the potential for sports related injury, by testing bone strength and neurological pre-dispositions.

"Athletes could soon have their training program and diet optimised for peak performance and minimal injuries based on their individual genetics," says Professor Mark Hargreaves, from the Physiology Department at the University of Melbourne

Comments:

In 2006, Times Higher Education Supplement ranked the University of Melbourne 22nd in the world. Because of the drop in ranking, University of Melbourne is currently behind four Asian universities - Beijing University,
, Australia, and the Chair of the Sports Meets Science Forum. Designing an exercise regimen best suited to an individual is currently based on trial and error. "You can give the same exercise program to 700 individuals and get a very divergent response. The new tools of molecular biology molecular biology, scientific study of the molecular basis of life processes, including cellular respiration, excretion, and reproduction. The term molecular biology was coined in 1938 by Warren Weaver, then director of the natural sciences program at the Rockefeller  are giving us greater insight into a person's physiology."

CyGene has made this DNA test easily available for everyone. The test is anonymous, ensuring confidentiality, and it can be purchased at the low price of $99.95 online at http://www.cygenedirect.com. There is no need to enter a doctor's office or a testing center. A home test kit is delivered to your door, and includes a cheek swab which can be easily mailed back to CyGene's laboratories. Accessing the results is equally as simple and is done through a personalized online report which contains interpretations of individual genes, including potential risks, follow-ups, and recommendations.

About CyGeneDIRECT

CyGeneDIRECT is an online consumer website that provides individuals with education and the opportunity to decide whether genetic testing Genetic Testing Definition

A genetic test examines the genetic information contained inside a person's cells, called DNA, to determine if that person has or will develop a certain disease or could pass a disease to his or her offspring.
 is right for them. Individuals are able to purchase genetic test kits from a third party fulfillment center and retrieve their results anonymously in a comprehensive personalized report available on a secure server. The reports help them to understand how their personal genetics affect certain risks, how other factors contribute in combination with their genetic profile, and how to modify these factors to decrease their risk.
