Breaking Down the Myths of Genetic Cancer Testing [Video]

If your mom had breast cancer, does that mean you will too?
A candid conversation with a genetic cancer prevention coach. 😇

I know little about this topic, so I looked forward to interviewing Krista, a Cancer Prevention Coach and nurse.

Krista’s focus is on genetic testing because she’s tested positive for a strong breast cancer gene, and she believes it’s the same gene that caused her mother’s breast cancer.

1. I’ve always wondered if a close relative had cancer, does that mean I will get it too?

2. What can you do to prevent cancer if it’s a big part of your family history?

3. How “close” does the relative with cancer have to be to increase your own risk?

4. Are there tests that you can take to see if you have strong cancer genes?

Krista answered all these questions and so many more.

This is a tricky topic, and I’ll be honest, it’s a little scary when you think about getting tested to see if you have a higher likelihood of cancer. But Krista is very clear that knowledge is power, and it’s better to understand the risks in your genetics so you can take action to lower them.
