Find Clarity About Your Genetic Heart Health Risk
If you’ve been struggling with persistently high triglyceride levels or unexplained pancreatitis episodes, you’re not alone. Many South Africans face these health challenges without understanding the underlying genetic causes. Our APOA5 Gene Hyperchylomicronemia Type 5 test provides the definitive answers you need to protect your long-term health and prevent serious complications.
Understanding Your APOA5 Gene Test
Hyperchylomicronemia Type 5 is a rare genetic disorder that affects how your body processes fats, leading to dangerously high triglyceride levels. The APOA5 gene plays a crucial role in breaking down these fats, and when mutations occur, it can cause severe health issues. Our advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your APOA5 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could be affecting your health.
Unlike standard blood tests that only show current triglyceride levels, our genetic test reveals the root cause, giving you and your healthcare provider the information needed for targeted treatment and prevention strategies.
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Persistently high triglyceride levels despite medication and lifestyle changes
- Recurrent episodes of pancreatitis with no clear cause
- Family history of early heart disease or lipid disorders
- Xanthomas (fatty deposits under the skin)
- Abdominal pain after fatty meals
- Unexplained fatigue and weakness
Many patients tell us they’ve spent years going from doctor to doctor without answers. Our genetic testing can provide the clarity that transforms your healthcare journey.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting tested for APOA5 gene mutations offers life-changing benefits:
- Prevent Serious Complications: Early detection can help prevent recurrent pancreatitis, which can be life-threatening
- Personalised Treatment: Your doctor can create targeted treatment plans based on your genetic profile
