What is Genetic Health Testing?
PGX
There is PGX (Pharmacogenomics) which is the study of genetic influences on your drug therapy. We can test your status for the “pharmacogenes” (Drug influencing genes) and this can help us make recommendations about your drug therapy.
NGX
Then there is NGX (Nutrigenomics) which is the study the nutrients in our body such as the essential vitamin (A,B’s,C,D) and Foods such as Carbohydrates, Fats, and Proteins looking at how they absorb and metabolize in our body. Sometimes our body doesn’t absorb them well and can cause issues like: Cardiovascular disease, Depression, Anxiety, Weight Gain, GI problems, and more.
Paternity & STD Testing
The Paternity & STD Testing offers a simple, confidential process for ordering DNA and STD tests, including options for paternity, maternity, sibling, and various relationship testing, as well as tests for common STDs like Chlamydia and HIV. Customers can easily order their test, receive a kit at home, and mail it back for quick results, all with secure and discreet handling.
Cancer and Rare Diseases Genetic Testing
The Cancer & Rare Disease Risk Testing provides genetic risk assessments for cancer (such as breast and colon cancer) and rare diseases, along with pregnancy genetic risk for couples. This includes an essential telehealth consultation to discuss health history and personalized testing recommendations, ensuring comprehensive support from start to finish.

Bio
Hi, my name is Richard Strachan and I currently live in Idaho with my beautiful wife and three little daughters. I’m originally from Florida and decided to move to Idaho to attend Idaho State University. It is there I pursued my doctorate degree as a pharmacist(Go Bengals!). I love Idaho so much! I decided that I wanted to be more involved with patients and assisting healthcare providers. This is my main reason for why I started my own business. I want to make an impact in the healthcare system. I took extra specialized training for PGX and Nutrition genetic testing. I’m certified through the ACPE accreditation program as a pharmacist genetic consultant. I am so excited to help others and the healthcare practitioners that work so hard. I know this science and a new edge to health can profoundly impact your health and lifestyle forever.
