Precursor in blood pressure regulation.
iHow to read this: each row is one possible genotype, the two DNA letters you carry at this position, one inherited from each parent. "Normal" matches the more common version; "Carrier" (heterozygous) means you have one copy of each version, usually a partial effect; "Variant" (homozygous) means both copies carry the less common version, usually the strongest effect. The estimated frequency below is calculated from the variant's frequency in the general population (Hardy-Weinberg principle) — it is a population estimate, not a measurement of our own customers.
| Genotype | Impact | Est. frequency | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| CCNormal | Normal | ~34% | Lower angiotensinogen levels; blood pressure is not very sensitive to salt. |
| CTCarrier | Low impact | ~49% | Intermediate angiotensinogen levels. |
| TTVariant | Moderate | ~18% | Higher angiotensinogen levels; blood pressure is more salt-sensitive. Keep everyday sodium moderate and reserve salty drinks for long, sweaty sessions. |
Estimated with the Hardy-Weinberg principle from the variant's population frequency, not measured directly.
