About Our Alzheimer's Risk Assessment Test

The Alzheimer’s Risk Assessment Test is a genetic test designed to help you understand your potential risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. The test analyzes the Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene, one of the most well-researched genetic factors linked to Alzheimer’s and dementia.

The ApoE gene has three common variants: ApoE2, ApoE3, and ApoE4. You inherit one copy from each parent.

  • ApoE4 is associated with a higher risk of Alzheimer’s disease
  • ApoE3 is the most common and considered neutral
  • ApoE2 is associated with a lower risk

This test identifies whether you carry the ApoE4 variant, helping you better understand your genetic risk.


Why Take an Alzheimer’s Genetic Risk Test?

Family History of Alzheimer’s Disease

If Alzheimer’s disease or dementia runs in your family, especially in parents or siblings, you may have an increased genetic risk. An ApoE test can provide valuable insight into your personal risk profile.

Early Awareness and Prevention

Although there is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s disease, early awareness allows you to take steps that may support long-term brain health. Lifestyle factors such as physical activity, healthy nutrition, quality sleep, stress management, and cognitive engagement are linked to better cognitive outcomes.

Better Health Planning

Understanding your genetic risk can help you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about monitoring cognitive health, early screening, and preventive strategies.

Peace of Mind

For many people, having clear information about their genetic risk provides reassurance and helps reduce uncertainty about the future.


Who Should Consider This Test?

The Alzheimer’s Risk Assessment Test may be helpful for adults who want to better understand their genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease and take a proactive approach to brain health.

You may consider this test if you:

  • Have a family history of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, especially in parents or siblings
  • Want to understand your genetic risk for Alzheimer’s before symptoms appear
  • Are interested in preventive brain health strategies and long-term cognitive wellness
  • Want information that can help guide health planning and discussions with a healthcare provider
  • Are experiencing concerns about memory or cognitive health and want additional insight
  • Prefer a personalized approach to health based on genetic information
  • This test is most useful for adults, particularly those in midlife or later, who want early awareness and actionable insights.

Common Questions:

Does this test diagnose Alzheimer’s disease?

No. The Alzheimer’s Risk Assessment Test does not diagnose Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. It evaluates genetic risk based on the ApoE gene and is intended to support informed health and lifestyle decisions.

What does it mean if I have the ApoE4 variant?

Having the ApoE4 variant is associated with an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, but it does not mean you will develop the condition. Many people with ApoE4 never develop Alzheimer’s, and many people without it do. Lifestyle, environment, and overall health also play important roles.

Will anyone see my results besides me?

Your results are stored in your secure online account. They are not shared with anyone else. If you choose, you can print or download them to share with your own doctor.

Do I need to fast before this test?

Fasting is not required for this panel. You can eat and drink normally unless your doctor has given you other instructions.

Can I talk to someone about my results?

Yes. If your results come back abnormal or if you simply have questions, our team is here to support you. You can text our Patient Services team at 1800-579-3914, anytime between 8am and 8pm.

Can I use insurance to pay for this test?

In order to ensure your privacy, we do not bill insurance directly, but you may use HSA or FSA funds. This keeps your results and testing completely private from insurers. We can also provide you with an itemized receipt for insurance reimbursement purposes if you need it.

What type of sample is required for this test?

This test requires a simple blood draw. No urine samples, swabs, or physical exams are involved.
