Cancer is not usually inherited, but some types – mainly breast, ovarian, colorectal and prostate cancer – can be strongly influenced by genes and can run in families.

We all carry certain genes that are normally protective against cancer. These genes correct any DNA damage that naturally happens when cells divide. Inheriting faulty versions or “variants” of these genes significantly raises your risk of developing cancer, because the altered genes cannot repair the damaged cells, which can build up and form a tumour.

We provide blood tests to screen and detect genetic variants in 8 genes which may increase risk of breast and ovarian cancer 🧬 To book a blood test, contact us on 01446 789740 or email clinical@valewellness.co.uk.

There’s no sure way to prevent cancer, but you can help reduce your risk of diseases by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and prioritising your wellbeing. If it’s time to make some changes and you need guidance, we can help 🌼
