Your DNA is not your destiny—it’s your roadmap to personalized health. Using IntellxxDNA™, the most advanced genomic tool in functional medicine, Dr. Julia Ward provides advanced DNA testing to patients in Houston and across Texas that gives insights into your genetic makeup to guide tailored interventions that support your brain, body, and long-term well-being.

What is DNA Testing for Health Optimization?

Unlike traditional genetic testing, IntellxxDNA is a clinically actionable genomic platform that identifies and analyzes your unique genomic variations to uncover root causes of chronic illness. This isn’t about predicting disease, it’s about empowering you to prevent it.

Your DNA holds powerful insights about how your body works, from how it handles inflammation, processes nutrients, regulates hormones, to how your brain ages. With this information, Dr. Julia Ward can build a truly personalized roadmap to optimize your health.
