About TeloTest™
Check your Patients' DNA Age and Help Delay Premature Aging
TeloTest™ is a simple yet insightful genetic test that measures the length of telomeres in order to quantify the degree of cellular aging of the individual at the time of sampling. Diet, environmental factors, lifestyle habits, stress or negative thinking are some of the factors that can affect our aging. The concern about healthy aging, also called well-aging, has encouraged the finding of new tools to know our aging.

About Telomere Length Testing
As cells replicate, the telomeres on the ends of chromosomes become shorter, and the speed of telomere shortening may indicate the pace of cellular aging. Telomere length, shorter than the average telomere length for a specific age group, may be related with early onset of many age-associated health problems. Certain lifestyle factors such as smoking, obesity, lack of exercise, and unhealthy diet can increase the pace of telomere shortening leading to illness.1

The human telomeres shorten during the aging process, but the speed of this process varies for each person.
This is only the start of your patients' journey to better health and wellness
The TeloTest™ can be offered alongside other Fagron Genomics US’ panels to help further quantify a patient’s progress and compliance with their health and wellness journey. Reorder the TeloTest™ as soon as annually for each patient and renew your consultation and guidance more often through this innovative type of test.

1. Order Kit
First, kits are ordered via exclusive online portal and sent to either the practice’s office or drop shipped directly to the patient’s home.

2. DNA Collection
Next, a DNA sample is collected via 1-minute buccal cheek swab, a questionnaire is filled out, and both are easily sent back directly to the Fagron Genomics US lab.
