Ngithathe Ukuhlolwa Kwe-DNA Yasekhaya Ukuze Ngisize Ukwenza Ngezifiso Ukunakekelwa Kwesikhumba Sami

Ngikholelwa ngokuphelele ukuthi ulwazi lungamandla, ngakho-ke lapho ngizwa ukuthi kwakukhona ukuhlolwa okusha kwe-DNA ekhaya okunikeza ukuqonda ngesikhumba sakho, ngangikhona.

Isisekelo: I-HomeDNA Skin Care ($ 25; cvs.com kanye nemali engu- $ 79 lab) ilinganisa izimpawu zofuzo ezingama-28 ezigabeni eziyisikhombisa ezihambisana nokukhathazeka okuhlukahlukene (cabanga ngekhwalithi ye-collagen, ukuzwela kwesikhumba, ukuvikelwa yilanga, njll.) Ukukunikeza okuphelele ngokwengeziwe ukuqonda isikhumba sakho nalokho esikudingayo. Ngokuya ngemiphumela, lapho-ke uthola izincomo ezenziwe zaba ngezakho zezithako zamakhemikhali, izengezo ezingenakugwenywa, kanye nokwelashwa kochwepheshe esigabeni ngasinye. Kuzwakala kufanelekile, akunjalo? (Kuhlobene: Khohlwa Ukudla Nokuzivocavoca-Ingabe Unayo I-Fit Gene?)

"Lapho wazi okwengeziwe ngesikhumba sakho njengesitho, yilapho uba ngcono khona," kusho uMona Gohara, M.D., uprofesa wezokwelapha wesikhumba e-Yale School of Medicine. Okubi kuphela? "Kwesinye isikhathi awukwazi ukushintsha ikusasa," esho. "Okhilimu kaningi abanawo amandla okuguqula izinto ezidingekayo ukuze kuliwe nezakhi zofuzo."

Ake sibuyele kokuyisisekelo umzuzu. Uma kukhulunywa ngendlela isikhumba sakho esidala ngayo, kunezinhlobo ezimbili zezinto ezidlalayo: I-Extrinsic, efaka izinto zokuphila ezifana nokubhema noma uma ugqoka i-sunscreen (Ngiyacela uthi ugqoka i-sunscreen!), Futhi ngaphakathi, aka ukwakheka kofuzo lwakho. Okwokuqala uyakwazi ukukulawula, okwamuva awukwazi. Futhi, ngokwephuzu likaDkt. Gohara, ngisho nemithi yokunakekela isikhumba engcono kakhulu ayikwazi ukukushintsha lokho umama wakho akunike kona. Noma kunjalo, ngokufunda kabanzi nge-genetics yakho ngokuhlolwa kwe-DNA kanjena, ungathola ulwazi olubalulekile mayelana nokuthi ungasinakekela kanjani kahle isikhumba sakho, hhayi nje kuphela maqondana nokuguga, kepha nempilo yesikhumba iyonke.

UDkt. Gohara uphawula ukuthi lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu maqondana nomdlavuza wesikhumba. "Yize abanye bengase bacabange ukuthi impilo yesikhumba iyashibilika, umdlavuza wesikhumba uyisifo sokuqala esibi e-United States," esho. "Umuntu onesikhumba sakhe esintula ukuvikelwa elangeni noma ama-antioxidants angase abe sengozini enkulu, futhi ukwazi lokho kungakusiza uqaphele ukuthi udinga ukukhulisa umdlalo wakho wokuvikela ilanga." (BTW, uyazi ukuthi kufanele uhlolwe kangaki isikhumba?)

Okubalulekile ukuthi, uma wazi okwengeziwe ngesikhumba sakho, kuba ngcono. Kodwa buyela ekuhlolweni ngokwayo. Yonke inqubo (ehlanganisa ukudala i-akhawunti kuwebhusayithi yenkampani) ingithathe imizuzu emibili, ubuningi. Ikhithi iza nama-swabs okotini nemvilophu ekhokhelwa kuqala; konke okwenzayo ukuswayipha ingaphakathi lezihlathi zakho, uphume ama-swabs emvilophini, bese uthumela yonke into emuva kubhu. Incazelo esheshayo futhi engenabuhlungu. Emasontweni ambalwa kamuva, ngathola i-imeyili yokuthi imiphumela yami isilungile. (Okuhlobene: Ingabe Ukuhlolwa Kwezempilo Zasekhaya Kuyakusiza Noma Kukulimaze?)

Umbiko wokuhlolwa onamakhasi ayi-11 ubumfushane futhi uqondakala kalula. Empeleni, ngakunye kokumaka kofuzo ezigabeni eziyisikhombisa, kufakwa iphrofayili yakho yofuzo njengengalungile, ejwayelekile, noma efanelekile. Ngingene njengokujwayelekile/okufanelekile kwemigqa emihle nemibimbi, ukuzwela ukungcola, ukwakheka kwe-collagen, ama-antioxidant esikhumba, kanye nokushintsha umbala. Emkhakheni wobuzwela besikhumba, ngibekwe njengongafanelekile, okwenza umqondo ophelele njengesikhumba sami kuhle kakhulu iyazwela futhi ithambekele kuzo zonke izinhlobo zemqubuko, ukusabela, nokunye okunjalo. Ukwakheka kwami ​​kwe-collagen fiber nokwehla kwe-collagen nakho bekungalungile. (Okuhlobene: Kungani Kungakaze Kusheshe kakhulu Ukuqala Ukuvikela I-Collagen Esikhunjeni Sakho)

Umbiko wami uphinde weza neziphakamiso eziwusizo mayelana nokuthi yini okufanele uyenze futhi uyenze ukuqinisa lezi zindawo ngokukhethekile, uDkt Gohara athi kuhle ukukugcina engqondweni lapho uhlela uhlobo oluthile lokunakekelwa kwesikhumba. “Njengoba wonke umuntu kufanele azivocavoce futhi adle ukudla okunomsoco, wonke umuntu kufanele asebenzise amafutha okuvikela ilanga kanye ne-antioxidant serum,” usho kanje. "Noma kunjalo, imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwe-DNA ingasiza ukukhomba ama-nuances womuntu. Isibonelo, uma ukuzwela kokungcola kuyinkinga kuwe, kufanelekile ukusebenzisa i-serum enezithako ezivikela lokhu ngqo." Endabeni yami, uncome ukugwema ama-exfoliants amakhemikhali anokhahlo (ukuze angabhebhethekisi isikhumba sami esibucayi) kanye nokwengeza ukusetshenziswa kwami ​​​​kwe-retinoid (ukusiza ngezinkinga ze-collagen).

Ekupheleni kosuku, ngithole ukuthi isivivinyo silufanele ngokuphelele utshalomali-futhi ngingasincoma kunoma ngubani ofuna ukwazi kabanzi ngesikhumba sakhe. Njengoba ungase ukwazi *ucabanga* ngesikhumba sakho, ukumba ujule kungaba yinto enhle ngempela. Uma ungazi, manje uyazi.
