Find Answers for Unexplained Magnesium Deficiency
When your body struggles to maintain healthy magnesium levels despite supplements and dietary changes, it can feel like you’re fighting an invisible battle. The fatigue, muscle weakness, and constant worry about your heart health can be overwhelming. Our EGF Gene Hypomagnesemia Type 4 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you deserve, using cutting-edge technology to uncover the genetic root of your magnesium challenges.
Understanding Your EGF Gene Hypomagnesemia Test
This specialised genetic test examines your EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic analysis. The EGF gene plays a crucial role in magnesium reabsorption in your kidneys. When mutations occur, your body cannot properly retain magnesium, leading to chronic deficiency despite adequate intake.
Unlike standard blood tests that only measure current magnesium levels, our genetic test identifies the underlying cause, providing answers that can guide targeted treatment strategies for life-long management.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Frequent muscle cramps or spasms
- Heart palpitations or irregular heartbeat
- Neurological symptoms like tremors or seizures
- Family history of magnesium deficiency disorders
- Poor response to magnesium supplementation
- Unexplained low magnesium levels in blood tests
Many patients tell us they’ve spent years searching for answers – our test can provide the genetic confirmation needed to move forward with confidence.
