The most common cause of death in males is Cardiovascular Disease, specifically Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). By 40 years of age, 70% of American men have thickened arteries. In CAD, plaques cause the heart arteries to narrow. These plaques can rupture and completely block the artery, causing death.
This condition doesn’t happen overnight; plaque buildup can start in your 20s and progress over decades.
Understanding the genetic risk and your own lifestyle impact on CAD development is key to being able to measure your own personal risk of developing CAD.
Poor lifestyle choices can contribute up to 40% of CAD risk.
Our program will help prevent and even reverse CAD using an advanced program of assessments and lifestyle modifications

At GC Biosciences, we provide men at risk of coronary artery disease with cutting-edge screening methods. To reduce your risk of heart disease and possibly reverse it, we perform a variety of tests to evaluate your risk profile and pinpoint areas that need attention.
Before any testing, you must have an initial consultation with a health consultant to assess your current lifestyle, medical history, and familial health.
You'll then be booked in to have your blood taken so we can do the blood analysis. You will also be booked in for a stress echocardiogram.
After analyzing the test results, we schedule a post-test consultation with our health scientists to discuss the findings and outline necessary changes to decrease your risk.
You will have a post-test consultation with a medical doctor (if needed), a nutritionist and a personal trainer to implement nutrition and lifestyle changes.
Check-in consultations every 2 weeks are scheduled. You'll be able to ask any questions you might have as you progress through the program.”
We understand the impact of genetics on CAD risk. Some individuals inherit genes that predispose them to heart disease, with men being more susceptible.
Adopting unhealthy lifestyle habits like smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and physical inactivity can significantly contribute to CAD development.
CAD becomes increasingly common with age, and men tend to develop CAD before women. As a result, men have an overall higher risk of CAD.
Certain occupations, such as manual labour or industrial work, can involve exposure to harmful chemicals or physical stress that may contribute to CAD development.
Conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, can increase the risk of developing CAD. Men are at a higher risk of developing these conditions.
Testosterone has been linked to an increased risk of developing CAD. It is thought to be related to changes in lipid metabolism and oxidative stress.
