to Town Center Wellness Patients
BOULDER, Colo.--(Business Wire)--
Sciona, Inc. (www.MyCellf.com), a pioneer in the science of
Consumer Genetics for lifestyle and nutritional guidance, announced
today it has partnered with Dr. Peter Osborne of Town Center Wellness
(www.towncenterwellness.com) to offer the MyCellf(TM) DNA Personalized
Genetics Analysis Kit in the greater Houston area.
Dr. Peter Osborne is the founder of Town Center Wellness, as well
as the host of the popular weekly radio program Alternatives For
Health and Wellness (KSEV AM, Houston, Texas). Dr. Osborne commented,
"As a doctor of chiropractic medicine, as well as a board certified
doctor of clinical nutrition, I counsel patients on how to enhance
their well being by incorporating suggestions on diet, exercise and
general health. The MyCellf(TM) DNA Personalized Genetics Analysis Kit
allows me to specifically address factors unique to each patient,
based on his or her genetic makeup. Analysis of a patient's DNA allows
new insights into how his or her genes affect metabolism, diet,
nutritional processing and lifestyle. This is very exciting as it will
increase the overall accuracy of recommendations for a patient's well
being. I look forward to sharing information about MyCellf(TM) with my
patients, as well as with the weekly radio show listeners of
Alternatives for Health and Wellness."
President and CEO of Sciona, Peter Vitulli said, "The science of
Consumer Genetics continues to grow in popularity in a number of
sectors, including the chiropractic field. Healthcare providers
recognize the importance of advising patients on suggested ways to
alter their diet and lifestyle based on their unique genetic profile.
The MyCellf(TM) DNA Personalized Genetics Analysis Kit assists in
structuring optimal nutritional and fitness programs to achieve
overall wellness."
The MyCellf(TM) DNA Personalized Genetics Test
The MyCellf(TM) DNA Personalized Genetics Test is a simple
procedure whereby a special cotton swab is used to collect cells from
the client's cheek. Clients then complete a lifestyle and health
questionnaire about their diet and exercise habits.
The swab and completed questionnaire are sent to Sciona, where the
client's DNA is analyzed from 27 specific genes which have been proven
in numerous studies to respond to changes in nutrition, diet, exercise
and lifestyle.
The sophisticated, confidential MyCellf(TM) DNA Personalized
Genetics analysis is conducted with the proprietary Sciona Genostic
Rules Engines(TM) software. The genetic findings basically reflect how
the client's genetic makeup metabolizes and utilizes foods and
beverages. Combined with the lifestyle questionnaire answers, the
results are explained in the MyCellf(TM) DNA Action Plan.
The MyCellf(TM) DNA Action Plan offers valuable insight into the
client's genetic makeup and their unique nutritional, supplement and
training needs. Another important part of the MyCellf(TM) DNA Action
Plan is that it makes specific nutritional and lifestyle
recommendations for clients based on their individual analysis.
Overall, clients seeking optimal health now have a leading-edge
scientific tool to assist them in reaching their goals more
effectively.
