Just as each GenoType has amazing strengths, each one has health risks to watch out for too. Learn what health problems you're at risk for, and see how you can reduce this risk by eating the right foods for your GenoType.  

Hunter: You already know that without the proper diet you're at risk for inflammatory diseases like asthma and allergies, Hunter. But did you know that by following the GenoType Diet and avoiding mold-containing foods, fungi, and simple sugars, you're helping soothe your intestinal lining and thus warding off inflammatory gut problems too? Count it as one more reason to stick with your GenoType Diet.  

Gatherer: Gatherers are at risk for high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes, but the risk of all three can be lessened if you maintain a healthy weight with the proper diet. Your GenoType Diet goes one step further in protecting you: When you avoid high-glycemic foods, your blood glucose and insulin levels stay in a healthy range.  

Teacher: Teachers face a high risk for breast cancer, especially later in life. And while Teachers rarely require hormone replacement therapy, you may discover that sensitivity needs to be restored to your own hormones. By following the GenoType Diet, you are ensuring that your anticancer defenses are on high alert, which may allow you to avoid any hormone-related therapy whatsoever. 

Explorer: Liver problems run in your GenoType, Explorer. But you can help your body clean up toxins by getting plenty of polysaccharide nutrients, which are found in the plant foods in your diet. You'll be promoting a healthy liver and bile ducts with this important detox component. 

Warrior: Rich sources of lignans (or phytoestrogens) like flaxseeds, sesame seeds, and fruit can help ward off a number of potential Warrior diseases. Breast and prostate cancer, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and inflammation are just a few. Of course, your GenoType Diet is specially designed to steer you in the right disease-fighting direction.
