Abstract

A method, software, database and system for determining modifiable lifestyle attributes which when altered, can increase the longevity of an individual is presented. Based on an individual's pangenetic (genetic and epigenetic) attributes and by comparison with databases of attributes and longevity data, specific modifiable attributes which increase longevity, based on the individual's specific pangenetic makeup, can be identified.

Claims (17)

1. A non-transitory computer readable medium for determining at least one longevity related modifiable lifestyle attribute for an individual, which attribute when modified leads to an increase in expected longevity of the individual, comprising:

a) a database of attribute profiles, wherein each attribute profile comprises pangenetic and modifiable lifestyle attributes along with longevity data correlating said respective pangenetic and lifestyle attributes; and

b) a set of instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause that processor to perform the steps of:

i.) receiving a query associated with an individual;

ii.) accessing an attribute profile associated with the individual, wherein the attribute profile contains pangenetic and modifiable lifestyle attributes;

iii.) determining, based on a comparison of the pangenetic attributes of the individual and the database of attribute profiles and longevity data, one or more modifiable lifestyle attributes associated with the individual which when altered, result in an increase in the expected longevity of the individual; and

iv.) transmitting the one or more modifiable lifestyle attributes as output to indicate modifiable lifestyle attributes that when modified increase the expected longevity of the individual.

2. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 1 , further comprising a set of instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause that processor to perform the step of:

v.) rank ordering the modifiable lifestyle attributes in an order corresponding to the modifiable attributes that increase the expected longevity of the individual to the largest extent.

3. A computer based method for determining at least one longevity related modifiable lifestyle attribute for an individual comprising:

a) receiving a query related to altering the longevity of an individual;

b) accessing an attribute profile associated with the individual, the attribute profile comprising pangenetic and at least one modifiable lifestyle attribute;

c) accessing a database containing pangenetic and modifiable lifestyle attributes along with longevity data;

d) determining, based on the pangenetic attributes of the individual and the database containing pangenetic and modifiable lifestyle attributes, one or more modifiable lifestyle attributes that can be when modified by the individual increase the individual's expected longevity; and

e) transmitting the one or more modifiable lifestyle attributes as output to indicate attributes that when modified by the individual increase the individual's expected longevity.

4. The computer based method of claim 3 , further comprising:

f) rank ordering the modifiable lifestyle attributes in an order corresponding to the modifiable attributes that increase the expected longevity of the individual to the largest extent.
