Gen.T lister Danny Yeung, co-founder and CEO of DNA-based digital health company Prenetics.
"The World Health Organization estimates that up to 90 per cent of the world’s chronic diseases may be prevented with the proper diet and lifestyle. In 2018, the healthcare industry will see more consumers taking health into their own hands and finally realising that prevention is key to living a healthy and balanced life.
The use of DNA testing and artificial intelligence will allow consumers to gain insight into their risk for chronic diseases based on a simple DNA saliva sample, and respond with the optimal diet and medication. Having access to this valuable health information will empower individuals to make the necessary lifestyle modifications to prevent or delay the onset of disease. Over time, access to DNA testing will be as common as your annual health check."
