APOE Gene Diet is a registered trademark that provides information on different APOE gene variants and their associated risks for cardiovascular disease. It recommends gene-specific diets and lifestyles to support a healthy Gene Supportive Environment for each variant. The document outlines the different variants, their prevalence in the population, toxic clearance levels, and optimal diets, exercise, supplements and alcohol consumption based on the scientific literature to maintain cardiovascular health for each gene type. It cautions that statistics may not apply to individuals, who should work with their practitioner to determine their unique needs.
