In the Midst of #Demonetization, Remonetize Your Health
November 8, 2016 — a date that changed the way India thinks about money. As the nation scrambled to remonetize, we at MapmyGenome thought: what if we applied the same urgency to our health?
Just as demonetization forced us to take stock of our financial assets and liabilities, a health audit forces us to take stock of our genetic assets and liabilities. And just as old currency notes had to be exchanged for new ones, old health habits need to be exchanged for new, evidence-based ones.
Your Health Balance Sheet
Think of your genome as your health balance sheet. On the assets side: genetic variants that protect you from certain diseases, give you athletic ability, or help you metabolise nutrients efficiently. On the liabilities side: genetic variants that increase your risk for diabetes, heart disease, cancer, or other conditions.
The good news? Unlike your bank balance, your genetic liabilities can often be managed — through lifestyle changes, regular screening, and targeted medical interventions. But you can only manage what you know.
