Chenot Palace Weggis unveils new Molecular Lab for Optimal Living

Chenot Palace Weggis, Switzerland’s premiere luxury wellness retreat, has launched The Chenot Molecular Lab for Optimal Living, an innovative approach designed to combat premature ageing at the molecular level.

The Chenot Molecular Lab for Optimal Living utilises leading-edge epigenetic technology to analyse gene activity, determine biological ageing status and prescribe a personalised treatment plan to optimise wellbeing and health.

Driven by science, this new development is part of the brand’s objective to increasing mental and physical performance at any age.

“At Chenot, our focus is not on lifespan, but rather healthspan – the concept of remaining healthy for as long as possible as we age,” said Dr George Gaitanos, chief operating and scientific officer at Chenot.

“Our epigenetic profile is the most precise barometer of our future health that reveals our gene activity and ultimately pinpoints to molecular targets for increasing life expectancy, avoiding disease and achieving optimal well living.”

The Chenot Molecular Lab for Optimal Living uses mRNA-based molecular tests to analyse the expression levels of certain genes associated with silent inflammation, oxidative stress, hormonal imbalance, structural integrity of connective tissue and ageing.

Through a simple blood test performed at the Chenot Palace Weggis state-of-the-art molecular laboratory, the medical team undertakes a comprehensive gene expression analysis to determine an individual’s gene activity, said to be an invaluable predictor of health and susceptibility to disease. The precise nature of the epigenetic profile identifies undesirable gene activity and can pinpoint the root cause of current or future health issues years before their onset.

Equipped with an accurate picture of an individual’s gene activity, the Chenot medical team then creates a personalised treatment plan to target and build resilience against the potential onset of the symptoms of disease. Taking this unique approach to health and wellness helps to empower individuals to take preventative measures and make lifestyle changes that have been shown to slow biological ageing.
