APOE affects transport of cholesterol and triglycerides through blood and into brain tissue. APOE E4 is linked to oxidative-stress sensitivity and altered LDL response to dietary fat. Longevity IQ profiles genes tied to antioxidant defense, cardiovascular health, metabolism, athletic performance, detoxification, and dementia risk. The panel aims to identify inflammatory and metabolic blocks that predispose to chronic disease. The panel includes several methylation genes because they are relevant to longevity as well as methylation.
