With the rapid development of precision medicine, the use of genetic testing to predict disease risk and prevent disease is increasingly favored by the public. At present, many consumers conduct genetic testing out of curiosity and hope to know more about themselves. However, due to insufficient access to professional information or being fooled by bad businesses, there are many misunderstandings in cognition.

Dr. Wang Junyi, Ph.D., founder of the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that genetic testing is a genetic risk, such as the probability of a disease, which is inherent in the probability of a disease. Almost lifelong, the results do not represent the status quo. The result of the physical examination shows the situation of the human body. Therefore, genetic testing cannot replace physical examination.
In addition, some consumers mentioned that since the high risk of detecting the disease, the psychological pressure is very high, and they are worried that they will get sick. "American film star Julie found that her breast cancer and ovarian cancer are very high risk by genetic testing, so she removed the breast and ovaries. Then I have a high risk of gastric cancer. What should I do?" Ms. Chen, a white-collar worker in Hangzhou, expressed anxiety.
In this regard, many experts said that high risk does not mean that the disease will be sick in the future, but that under the same environment and living habits, it is more likely to be sick than others, and it is necessary to strengthen prevention without being too pessimistic.
"Juli's removal of the breast and ovaries is controversial. The general consumer recommends that physical examination screening be strengthened while the lifestyle is healthier, which helps to reduce the risk of illness." Zheng Xiao, chief physician of Zhejiang Cancer Hospital, said if the gene The risk of detection is not high, nor does it mean that the disease will not be obtained in the future, because the disease is closely related to the day after tomorrow, and the daily habits are still good.
Experts say that genetic testing is not a panacea, and consumers should not blindly follow blindly. At present, genetic testing companies are mixed, and consumers should choose institutions with medical licenses for testing. It is best to consult professionals for testing results.
