Max, you are less genetically resilient to developing neurodegenerative diseases than the average person.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common neurodegenerative disease and most of your risk is due to genetic factors for Alzheimer’s over other neurodegenerative conditions. While this means that you genetically are more likely to develop neurodegenerative diseases than the average person, many people with your genetic resilience score remain disease free throughout their life.
Lifestyle and taking care of your overall health contributes about 40% to your overall risk and you can work on improving that now. By subscribing to NeuroAge you are contributing to the development of therapeutics that will be available in the future should lifestyle changes alone not be enough to prevent you from developing a neurodegenerative disease.

This report does not diagnose any disease. It is instead showing the likelihood of being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease based on how often other people with your genetic resilience developed Alzheimer’s. Many people with your resilience score never develop Alzheimer’s disease. Having a lower neuro age is associated with less risk of Alzheimer’s even in people with genetic risk factors. You can lower your neuro age with our recommended lifestyle modifications. If you are concerned about your memory, we recommend that you speak with your doctor.
