Marina's Story: A Breast Cancer Survivor's Journey
Success Story
The dnaPower test has helped me by giving me a roadmap to my nutrition and the foods that I should eat to make my system function much better.
- Marina
Meet Marina, a breast cancer survivor who wanted to find new ways to understand her health after her treatment. She decided to try a DNA-based nutrition test. She was hoping it could give her insights into how her body processes certain foods and hormones.
Her goal was simple. She wanted practical advice on her diet and lifestyle that could help her feel her best moving forward.
A Simple Test with Clear Answers
Marina found the testing process to be very easy and straightforward. The dnaPower kit used a simple cheek swab, which was completely painless.
The dnaPower test was super simple. I was actually really surprised. It's literally just a swab.
The kit came with everything she needed, including a package to mail the sample back to the lab. She loved that it was a self-addressed stamped envelope. All she had to do was put her sample in and mail it off.
Throughout the process, she received email updates about the status of her sample. She always knew where her test results were. For Marina, the easy-to-use kit and the clear communication made the whole experience a positive one.
Unlocking a Personal Health Blueprint
A key reason Marina wanted to do the test, specifically the totalPower kit, was to better understand her personal health history. She was very interested in how her body handles estrogen. This is because the way our bodies manage hormones can be very different from person to person.
Her results gave her an important piece of information. They suggested that her body was taking in estrogen much faster than it was getting rid of it. This was a “big surprise” for her and a lightbulb moment.
For me, the big surprise was... my body takes in estrogen like a big pipe like this, and it gets it out like a pipe like this big.
This powerful insight prompted her to focus on specific diet choices. She learned which foods and supplements could help her body’s natural detoxification pathways. The report gave her the guidance she needed to make these positive changes.
An Important Note on Your Health
Finding Inspiration on Your Health Journey
Marina chose to share her experience to help other people who might be on a similar path. Many people find strength and hope by reading the stories of fellow survivors.
There is a long list of famous breast cancer survivors who have publicly shared their journeys to inspire others. Marina’s story is a powerful reminder that you can take proactive steps to understand your body and take control of your health.
I need to do things and take foods and supplements to help my body with detoxification to get the estrogen out. Otherwise, I'll get cancer again.
Your DNA is a Tool for Empowerment
Marina’s story shows a growing interest in personalized health information. More and more people are using data to make smarter choices for their well-being every single day.
For some, exploring the full range of DNA tests can be a great starting point for questions to ask their doctor or nutritionist. For others, they can provide a clear framework for trying new things with their diet and lifestyle.
Like any health tool, it’s important to understand what it can and cannot do. Knowing what a DNA test can do helps people make balanced and informed decisions for their health.
